THEIR manager has had our manager’s kecks down there. I am going to talk about this for a while so brace yourselves. Their manager has absolutely had our manager’s kecks off. And that’s OK from the point of view of criticising our manager. That...

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...

I’D have taken it. Before a ball was kicked I would have taken it. Both the manner of it and the eventual result. I’m not going to be mad about the fact that your Manchester United seemingly offered it. That is their business, not mine, and they will be...

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...

JOSE Mourinho set out his stall as most anticipated he would, and while Liverpool failed to break them down it wasn’t as dispiriting as the results we’ve seen in previous weeks. Here are Anfield Wrap contributors with talking points straight from the...
