GAME intelligence: 0/10 Nouse: 0/10 Bollocks: 1/10 Fucking hell… Simon Mignolet: 1 Fucking hell. Absolutely shite for their first. Shithouse in the extreme where he dives out of the way. I do wonder how his face ended up so flat when he would never, ever dream...

Pre Match JUST switched on as their team was flashing up on BT. It would appear that they are playing a ’60s soul band upfront, so let’s hope Heaven is indeed missing an angel and it is wearing burnt orange or whatever the fuck colour our kit is. It’s also a...

YET again we are frustrated by the supposed best manager in world football, who turns up at Anfield and uses the same game plan as Derek Adams of Plymouth Argyle did last January. Actually if Adams had spent £400million on his squad maybe even he’d have been...

ANOTHER day, another game and another 90 minutes where you couldn’t relax for a second. Coming a day after Tottenham comfortably won 4-0, and Manchester United comfortably won 4-0, Manchester City won away at Chelsea, and on the same day that Arsenal gained an easy...

HOLD on while I dust off my template opening for most Liverpool games over the last few years. Something something unlucky. Something else poor finishing. Something or other incredible opposition goalkeeping, and then also sloppy goal conceded. Blah blah blah beer in...

I DIDN’T see the game on Tuesday night. I was otherwise engaged, but as ever when I can’t watch the game live, I spend 90 minutes constantly refreshing Twitter to see how things are going. The first 65 minutes went like this: “Liverpool have started brightly.” “The...

Pre Match: THERE’S something about Leicester. Sounds like the shittest ever film sequel that, doesn’t it? Where a fella pretending to have a disability, one whose face starts to melt the closer he gets to the city and a small-time crook with horrific dress sense...

SO that completes a week in which Liverpool got battered away from home by a close rival and twice walked away from Anfield disappointed after dominating teams they are definitely better than with only a point each to show for it. The Reds may have got what they...

CAN’T help but feel the word “naivety” going round and round my head after that one. A game Liverpool could have won about six times over ends up as a draw, and could very well have been a defeat. Jürgen Klopp owed Sevilla. As he alluded to in his press...

WELL, that hurt. If you’re going to go down to 10 men against anyone, then it’s probably best not to do so against a Pep Guardiola team. Only a few weeks ago Everton had an extra man against them and still got completely dominated in the second half. Make no mistake,...
