BACK down to earth with an almighty bump. It’s rather worrying that we didn’t seem to have any answers to a team working quite hard. Concerning that the only shot on target was a limp Dejan Lovren header (Albie’s offside-not-offside worldie aside)....
LIVERPOOL were not at the races. Liverpool looked at times like they had forgotten about the races. They weren’t complacent. They were off the pace all over the pitch. There are very few whose mind and body were what they needed to be. Joe Allen, perhaps, was...
OH what it is to be a Red at the moment. The birds are singing, the sun is shining… well actually no that’s a lie, the birds are getting blown away in the wind and it’s regularly pissing down with rain, but the footie’s been pretty good. The Reds are mustard again, at...
