OH fuck off, are you fucking messing, are you deliberately trying to ruin Christmas you soft cunt. “We’re defending really well at the moment, we’ve been solid.” Simon Mignolet has hailed Liverpool’s “solid” recent performances. The...

QUITE the achievement a 3-3 draw against top six rivals where both sides come away disappointed. But Liverpool and Arsenal are second to none in delivering disappointment to their supporters in new and innovative ways. Fair play to them. A Merry Christmas to them and...

Pre Match THE teams have just dropped there and the idea that Liverpool won’t win this game has grown wings and fucked off into the fog. That is a seriously good Liverpool team, up against a team whose Kryptonite seems to be other teams attacking them. Lets hope they...

IT’S the mid 1980s and Arsenal are playing Liverpool at home at Highbury. It’s a night game, midweek, and I think it’s finished as a draw. I think. We’ve been penned in at their Clock End. No cover from the rain. That ground adequately covered every stand except the...

LIVERPOOL’S intensity was exceptional as they beat Bournemouth 0-4 this evening. Nil-four is a really rather rare scoreline and rightly so. To score four at any Premier League ground without reply takes a very good performance and that is exactly what Liverpool...

THESE took four points off us last year. You know what grates the most? Their manager’s trackie bottoms. Quite clingy, weren’t they? Remember being fuming about them. Anyway. Simon Mignolet: 7 Did well to stop a corner at the start of the second half. That was about...

IF I live to be 95 years old (gotta have ambition) then I’ve got about 2,300 weeks left. Never thought I’d hear myself say this but, I hope none of them are as long as this past one has been. A week ago The Reds were the six wins in eight games Reds. We were the...

LIVERPOOL were fucking crap tonight. Immediately after typing that the realisation hits that this is exactly the sort of writing which means that yours truly isn’t about to be offered Barney Ronay’s column at The Guardian. We could find a wry way around...

Pre Match THERE’S you there, just lashed your phone on the deck ’cause Jürgs is playing all the boys. I think it is safe to say that he thinks we are all bellends, and in fairness he is bang on the money. That said, I can’t wait until we get beat here and...
