THEIR manager has had our manager’s kecks down there. I am going to talk about this for a while so brace yourselves. Their manager has absolutely had our manager’s kecks off. And that’s OK from the point of view of criticising our manager. That...

GAME intelligence: 0/10 Nouse: 0/10 Bollocks: 1/10 Fucking hell… Simon Mignolet: 1 Fucking hell. Absolutely shite for their first. Shithouse in the extreme where he dives out of the way. I do wonder how his face ended up so flat when he would never, ever dream...

THE only surprising thing about Liverpool conceding comical goals is that people are still surprised. The manager can bang on all he wants about defending as a team and opportunities to defend situations before they hit the back four but sometimes bad defending is...

WHEN Jürgen Klopp came to Liverpool there was almost a collective idea that started forming across the fan base that the messiah had arrived, and that was clear in the excitement for his first game away at Tottenham Hotspur, writes SIMON STEERS. You could look at what...

FOR all Liverpudlians it has already been an exhausting season. The football has been mostly breathless but we’re actually tired of working this team out and it’s still only October. Rampant, attacking football but a glut of missed chances placed incongruously...

WE all needed that, Reds, didn’t we? It’s typical Liverpool to go from having no one on the end of gilt-edged chances for weeks on end to having players literally running into each other to put the ball in the net and not being able to decide which of them actually...

A STROLL? A side put to the sword? An enjoyable game for Liverpool? It’s the last thing I hope that Liverpool focus on in the dressing room, on the plane, on the training pitch. How enjoyable it was to play, and create, and score. And score. We can want them to...

REMEMBER when Marc Overmars scored from a Nwankwo Kanu cross to knock Sheffield United out of the FA Cup to a nation’s disgust? Fucking great, wasn’t it? While Maribor might be no great shakes, you can only beat what it’s in front of you and Liverpool showed a...
