HARD to know for sure having not seen any replays of anything, but thought we genuinely played really well there. Such fine margins in games like that, chances missed there that would keep players up at night. Simon Mignolet: 6 Didn’t really have loads to do....

THE notion of loyalty gets a lot of airtime in football. Loyal fans. The loyal servant. The disloyal want-away. The loyalty of the board. The lack of loyalty towards a manager. We’ll support you evermore. You’ll never walk alone. You’re one of our...

‘I WAS in a car crash — or was it the war? — well, I’ve never been quite the same’ (G.Numan, ‘Down in the Park’, 1979) Melissa Reddy of Goal.com and The Anfield Wrap posited this week that the Liverpool players were still...

AHEAD of Liverpool’s clash with Burnley at Anfield we spoke to Tyrone Marshall, Burnley FC reporter at the Lancashire Telegraph, to gauge the opposition opinion. Burnley currently sit 12th, nine points above the relegation zone, do you think fans will be pleased...
