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...

Liverpool more than find a way against Maribor; instead they dominate and the final result of 0-7 doesn’t flatter them or anyone in that eleven. Joining Neil Atkinson to talk through it are Paul Senior and Dan Morgan. It was a stroll for The Reds but it was that...

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...

Pre Match JUST switched on as their team was flashing up on BT. It would appear that they are playing a ’60s soul band upfront, so let’s hope Heaven is indeed missing an angel and it is wearing burnt orange or whatever the fuck colour our kit is. It’s also a...

HARK back to May after Liverpool had secured their top four position on the final day of the season and you would’ve had some very long odds on Alberto Moreno still being at the club come the start of the 2017-18 season. Even more improbable would’ve been the...

WE’RE not back but we will be soon. A bit of trust is required. Liverpool are a good team playing as well as it can, absent the confidence and concentration that only winning brings. One win in eight games sounds bad. It is bad. But if there’s a way to be as good as...

A great game to take a long view on with Sean Rogers and Paul Cope. The approaches and the way both managers looked to control the game is worthy of much comment. Elsewhere there is a long conversation about how Liverpool can do more in the penalty area. This show is...
