GOD, I don’t half feel sorry for Gibbons, although I’m sure he’s had a great time. Hard watching that. Anyway, the ratings… Loris Karius: 6 Good, strong hand on a long range effort in the first half that had ‘upset’ written all over...

PRETTY dull that, wasn’t it? Liverpool got their goal and then created little else. The senior players didn’t really lead the young lads, in fact Harry Wilson and Sheyi Ojo look the most likely once they came on. Not So Unlucky Lucas Lucas Leiva scored his...

I GENUINELY love the FA Cup. It’s my first footballing memory. I remember being five and watching Michael Thomas and Ian Rush bag Liverpool the cup against Sunderland in 1992. I remember being gutted in 1996 when Eric Cantona bagged a late winner. I celebrated Michael...

I MADE a series of fundamental mistakes for Liverpool v Plymouth. The first of which was saying I would go to every game this season months ago. I should have been very clear on every league game. Very clear indeed. But more on that later. My first mistake on the day...

AS unlikely as this sounds, I normally do a bit of research before I write this weekly column. At the very least I have watched the previous match at least once, read up on the general consensus and had an all-round good old think before I start writing. I know it is...
