THE WALLS are closing on Brendan Rodgers. Most bookies make him 6-4 favourite to be the first Premier League manager sacked and, however you pitch it, Liverpool’s recent performances and results simply haven’t been good enough. The Reds’ record since...
YOU’VE paid your money, settled into your seat and the match is about to kick off. As the referee draws breath on his first whistle what do you want? What do want to see from your players? What is it that will have you out of that seat, clenching a fist, letting...
BY now you know the stats. The facts and figures. You’ve seen the league table and you know the form. It’s been an underwhelming start to the season. In seven games in all competitions, Liverpool have managed only five goals. The manager is the favourite to ‘win’ the...
SUNDAY 20th, 1646: Three quick peeps from the referee call time on a first half Liverpool have shaded. The sort of first half where, if a team has been playing well for a few weeks, you settle down for half time expecting the job to be done second half. Liverpool...

LIVERPOOL neither attacked nor defended nor midfielded with conviction against Bordeaux. It was frustrating to watch. There is a pleasure to be taken from the following 1-1s away from home in Europe: a) A swashbuckling side hammer the opposition goal but their...
CAUGHT out by the mad kick off time, Gibbo is busy literally blowing his own trumpet so that left us with no-one to do the ratings. As Twitter has been giving us a bit of stick recently we decided to ask Twitter to do the ratings instead. Then it can give itself some...
