WE’RE gonna win the league, aren’t we? Here are the ratings: Loris Karius: 6 Had, literally, nothing to do bar pick the ball out the net, so hard to judge. Everyone seemed a little more relaxed, though, and he’s gorgeous. Nathaniel Clyne: 7 Defended well and ran...

HERE are the player ratings from The Reds’ comfortable 3-0 win over Derby County. Loris Karius: 10 You’d stick him in your five-a-side, wouldn’t you? Getting marked down for missing a punch in the second half, but everything seems different. First touch,...

THE gnarly, narky Reds leave London, again, with three points in the back bin. Looking more and more assured every week are Jürgen Klopp’s increasingly street-wise upstarts. Here are your ratings, then: Simon Mignolet: 7 Just doesn’t look comfortable with the ball at...

MANAGED to get through my match ratings debut unscathed, so I’m back for more. A much more positive result this week, as Liverpool drew 1-1 with Spurs at White Hart Lane, though Jürgen Klopp may feel his side could have taken all three points today, with some...

BEEN given a late call-up to replace Andy for my match ratings debut – go easy on me, Reds. If you are a big Heaton fan then worry not, he’ll be back soon. A relatively routine 5-0 win for Liverpool against Championship Burton Albion. An ideal result after...

Liverpool celebrated a famous victory in the ICC to put them top of their group. Here are your ratings. Mignolet 6 Had literally nothing to do all game, could have had a deck chair, pipe and slippers. Alexander-Arnold 7 (Sub 45) Another assured performance from the...

HOW annoying. At half-time we are all laughing and joking and picturing Flanno lifting the Premier League trophy in 2017. At full time we’ve thrown it away, a limp second-half performance that only looked like finishing one way after The Saints equalised. For...

A RESULT, and night, that surely makes some decisions on where priorities lie for the rest of the season. I have no appetite for a battle for eighth. The players look like they feel the same. A Bill Shankly quote we have used often this season is that a football team...

WELL that was enough for that. Our young lads might not have proved they were good enough for Liverpool’s first team, but they proved they were better than League Two. They passed Exeter off the park and then kicked it in the goal three times. The Grecians (oh...

WASN’T expecting that! Liverpool came out of the blocks with some sublime attacking play and took the game to the rightful league leaders. But we really should have been able to cope a bit better with what they had to throw back in return, regardless of the...
