More rain than chances a Goodison Park on Saturday, but Liverpool get a decent draw in the circumstances in a damp squib of a derby, in more ways than one. But Neil Atkinson, alongside John Gibbons, Philippa Smallwood and Stu Wright go searching for talking points...
THE Old Lady finally rocked. For 70 minutes Goodison Park was a nervous mess and the feeling persisted that the opening goal would be a Liverpool one. That the worst that could happen to an already miserable Everton season would happen. The vibe of the whole place was...
“IT was a good performance, it was not brilliant, but maybe the most mature we’ve played since I was in.” There was a point in the game in which Virgil van Dijk stepped into midfield, though probably still in front of Everton’s striker, and lashed a...
IT rained there, didn’t it? I was kind of hoping it would get called off for a bit. A couple of things about the rain. Point one, it’s the enemy of the baldy man. You ask any baldy mate they will tell you the same. When you are clinging on to the dying embers of your...

IT seems that relevance has been quite the theme of this monumental week for Liverpool Football Club. The question of relevance has taken on many forms. From the relevance of an ex manager and players at Crystal Palace last Saturday, to the relevance of atmosphere and...
FANCY being in with a chance to win a 2017-18 Liverpool home shirt signed by Trent Alexander-Arnold? The right back put in a man of the match performance in the 3-0 win over Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, under a week after his interview with...
IT feels strange to view a derby as a sideshow. At least it’s tempting to fall into this trap. Big Sam will say to his blue boys: “Their heads are elsewhere. Their legs are heavy, their hearts are lost in Europe”. Jürgen Klopp, though, will be taking faces...
