YOU see, the thing is, I haven’t seen a single second of Premier League football this weekend. In fact, why stop at the Premier League; I haven’t seen any football at all. The closest I have come to footy this weekend is my lad throwing a bouncy ball at my head,...

IT’S a joyous time to be a Liverpool fan at the moment. On the whole, right from our league position to the overall health of the football club in general, everything is alright. It’s more than alright, in fact. Jürgen Klopp and his team have set the standards...

WELL well. The inevitable points dropped. They were going to be dropped somewhere. And they couldn’t be dropped better than that; couldn’t be dropped with greater elan and panache. That’s the strange thing. Process and outcome. We have a manager in...

ODDS on 0-0 probably longer than Brexit and Donald Trump, Southampton will be made up with that performance and rightly so. Liverpool didn’t do too badly at all, but didn’t have enough to get the win. Loris Karius: 6 Everybody is looking for the slightest...

REMEMBER Stevi Ritchie off the X Factor? No? Me neither, until he sang You’ll Never Walk Alone at half-time at the riotous FBA awards last night. Not for the first time in his career, he emptied the room in seconds. But, not because he’s terrible, or that he came...

MATCH Day 12. The Reds are in the box seat. The Reds are bringing their all conquering touring revue show to a town near you. Southampton, are you ready? I can’t hear you. The last away day at Crystal Palace was quite the disco for the travelling Kop. I wasn’t able to...

LIKE a lot of people, I’ve been enjoying the new Planet Earth series on BBC One. If I feel half as relieved when Liverpool win the league as I did when that little lizard made it away from those snake bastards the other week then I’ll be surprised. It’s made me...

THERE has been no shortage of praise and admiration for the manner in which Liverpool have started the new season. Despite being unfancied by many outside Anfield at the start of the campaign, Jürgen’s Reds have laid waste to a potentially tricky start to find...

45, 43, 13, 17, 17, 54, 20, 16, 27. ELEVEN games in, nine games in which Liverpool have scored, and eight times we have scored before half-time. Thirty goals at 2.72 per game, Jürgen Klopp’s Reds have been relentless and ruthless in their push to the summit of the...

I WROTE a piece during the last international break saying I’d be excited if we were within six points of Manchester City. Well we can go back and read that and laugh at my pessimism, can’t we? What a shame that we’re a full seven points better off than I’d have been...
