JUSTIN BLOCK WHEN you walk through a storm, hold your head up high… And don’t be afraid of the dark… At the end of the storm, there’s a golden sky… Darkness brews inside your temporal walls. There’s no warning heeded, grey sky spotted, or...

BOSS that. Funny how you know a game is likely to pan out after 10 minutes, isn’t it? Simon Mignolet: 8 Massive stop one v one when it mattered, needs to keep backing himself. Nathaniel Clyne: 7 Back to his overlapping best, looked far more dangerous than of...
