FOOTBALL is a bit mad, isn’t it? Essentially, it’s 90 minutes of chaos and luck which is decided one way or another by a handful of defining moments. Whether a team wins, loses or draws comes down to their number 10 curling in a freekick, three players keeping their...
FOOTBALL has a way, every now and again, of conjuring up a defining match out of an otherwise routine game. A rhetoric builds, a pressure is exerted and all of a sudden, a precipice is presented with a couple of obvious options. Take your chance, leap into the unknown...
THERE’S nothing more I want than for Liverpool Football Club to win the Premier League. Sure, world peace would be great and there are any number of political circumstances around the globe I wouldn’t mind being sort out in a manner I judge to be favourable, but if I...
ALL of a sudden, after Burnley and Leicester followed familiar scripts, Liverpool FC is the prime critical focus of the sports media. The notion of a “Crisis Club” has been around for as long as I can remember, albeit in a different guise. Once upon a time, the...

LIVERPOOL kicked off their Champions League campaign in front of an expectant Anfield, but much as the competition might have changed, the problems remained the same. The manager needs to wear this one, irresistible when on top, incapable when under the cosh, how many...
AS Liverpool enter a crucial part of the season, John Gibbons is joined by Simon Hughes, Dan Fieldsend and Mike Nevin to analyse the international break from a Liverpool point of view and look forward to a massive game away at Manchester City. In part 2 we also speak...
LAST Thursday the transfer window closed, or “slammed shut” if you prefer to use Sky’s exaggerated term (I’m not sure that a deadline can “slam” as such), with Liverpool making some pretty decent purchases in the allotted time. The signing of...
SO, how are we today? I went to bed at 10.55pm, about five hours after we pretty much knew that nothing was going to happen but only five minutes before the unbearable “slamming shut” of the window, the point that Jim White’s transfer knowledge would bring...
