IT’S the worst feeling. I know for some it willl be losing to Everton, but many younger Reds won’t even remember that as a thing. They were strange days of inept managers from Croydon and Paul Konchesky (don’t have nightmares, kids). Losing to Manchester United hurts....
ONE of them, isn’t it? Fuck it, it’s gone, in fact, I’d go so far as to say that the biggest compliment you could ever give to how good Liverpool are is how Jose Mourinho and Manchester United lined up today. When you’ve got the manager who’s spent more than any other...
A GAME of football broke out. An intriguing one. I mean it is crap to lose and that. We’ll come back to that in a second. But it was intriguing. Take all the nonsense out of it — all the canal gear — what we saw was a very good Liverpool side who...
HOW many times have you seen that first half there. What is it? The pitch? The ground? The referee? Answer, probably all of the above. We need a massive, big think about how we manage games when we go one down. Heads went. Collective heads. Forcing it left, right and...
MANCHESTER is our Shelbyville. Our parallel universe. To the untrained eye it all looks and feels quite similar. The streets, the bricks, the rain, the lads, the wind, the water, the girls, the food. The football. The devil, though, has always been in the differences....
SO there’s Rafa Benitez there, looking all managerial and important. What a man. Have a lovely big reminisce about them mad days with that mad crazy, needly bastard in charge of us. While you are doing that have a lovely big think about the now and have a look at...
CALL it run of the mill; it’s the thing that’s easy to say. Just a run-of-the-mill home victory. Pre match we’re in The Hole In The Wall and this bloke comes over and points to three fellas and says that these lads have come from California and had...
IN a surprisingly relaxed press briefing earlier this week, and with the return of Rafa Benitez on the horizon, Jürgen Klopp was predictably asked his opinion on a man still held in the highest regard by most Liverpool fans. And the German couldn’t have been more...
“Rafa, Rafa… “Rafa, Rafa… “Rafa Benitez… “Xabi Alonso, Garcia and Nunez.” Fucking Antonio Nunez. Remember him? The makeweight in the deal that took Michael Owen to Madrid. He scored a goal for Liverpool Football Club and...
FOOTBALL’S a bit of a mad one, isn’t it? The tricks it can play on you, the anxieties it can bring out despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the way it’ll make you reach for straw of despair and yet keep you hoping for the impossible. I’m not having it...
With recent talk about the quality and lack of depth in Liverpool’s squad, on this week’s Midweek Extra, we look at what work Liverpool need to do in the summer and what priorities should be as they look to address an imbalanced squad.
John Gibbons hosts Dan Eastwood, Jimmy Carr and Kieran Molyneux. Also in the show John chats to Beata Olsson, Zara Shaw and Denise O’Sullivan ahead of Liverpool FC Women’s FA semi-final at the weekend against Brighton .
