IT’S been another depressing few days in the world of Liverpool FC. From the massive high of ruining Manchester City’s unbeaten run to the predictable defeat by the side currently sitting bottom of the league, it has all felt typically Liverpool in a way we’d all...
LIVERPOOL were absolutely dreadful against Swansea City and deserved nothing from the game today. There isn’t a single Liverpool player whose performance was anywhere near good enough and indeed most of them dropped to their worst level, portraying all their bad...
