A deserved win eventually, admittedly against a poor side. Should keep the planes away for a few more games anyway. Numbers and words. Simon Mignolet: 6 Can he do more with the goal? Probably sees it late. Shouting more, which is good Glen Johnson: 5 He’s...
CAN you imagine the conversation? Because I can’t. “Alright lads, yeah, what we’ll do is all chip in and get an aeroplane to fly over Anfield with a banner on the back saying ‘Rodgers out Rafa in’.” In any group of Liverpool fans I...
ALBERT Stubbins, Jackie Balmer, Roger Hunt, Kevin Keegan, Kenny Dalglish, Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler, Michael Owen, Fernando Torres, Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge. Goals, Goals, Goals. Red nets bulging. Rickie Lambert, Fabio Borini, Mario flaming Balotelli. Well, these...
I *LOVE* Rafa Benitez. I love the bones of him. I’m willing to bet I’m in the top one percent of worldwide Rafa lovers. There are basically his kids, Montse and Antonio Nunez that I’m prepared to acknowledge might be ahead of me. It’s important...

IT OCCURS to me that this is an example of a game where a match review might need to be that bit more of a match report. We have a non-televised game in the UK where around half of Liverpool’s travelling support have chosen to stay away in protest at ticket...
YOU have to be sure. It’s no small thing taking away the Liverpool job, so you have to be sure. I feel like Henry Fonda in Twelve Angry Men, writes PAUL LITTLE. It has to be beyond reasonable doubt for me – or at least that’s how I always feel when it comes to...
EVEN Steve Bruce gets it. Tonight, hundreds of Liverpool fans that religiously travel home and away to watch the team they love up and down the country, across continents and at all hours of all days will stay away when the Reds play Hull at the KC Stadium. It’s not...
DISCUSSING Liverpool right now feels a lot like the moment Bill Murray wakes up on February 2 at six o’clock to I Got You Babe by Sonny & Cher. Again and again and again. Instead, in the Scouse version of Groundhog Day, we wake up and someone tells us we still...
