IT’S been a joyless week. Calamitous defeats don’t aid restful sleep. Saturday can’t come too soon and yet simultaneously may just make things worse. I’ve been arguing on social media, but mainly in my head, with good friends about the manager. I like the manager and...

THERE’S a strange phenomenon occurring around the fields of Anfield Road at the moment. It’s something I noticed months ago and have been watching with fascination as it’s developed, while not being entirely sure what I think about the whole thing. As the performances...

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’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...

FOR all the pre-match posturing, Jose Mourinho once again showed that when the chips are down he’s the game’s biggest shithouse. The Manchester United manager had been at pains all week to tell anyone who shoved a microphone in his face that today’s fixture was...
