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...

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...

The Anfield Wrap on Citytalk focusses all its energies on Liverpool vs Manchester United; a game which feels as though it has so much riding on it. How much of a factor is last season’s game in terms of what we can expect? What about the injuries? What are the...

THE biggest game of the season is upon us. That is an opinion, not a fact. Some, particularly those who have had what some would call the displeasure of growing up around Evertonians, will disagree — or agree that it may be classed as bigger but that doesn’t...

AM I going a bit soft, I thought this week, as I found myself glued, gushingly sympathetic and admiring of the life of Sir Bobby Charlton as brilliantly portrayed by the BBC? While watching, even my wife observed, “It’s a bit too United for me”, adding to her concerns...
