A devastating and heavy loss for The Reds as they go 5-0 down away at Manchester City. Neil Atkinson is back from holiday… …and hasn’t seen a minute of the match. There is a story. But Paul Senior and Rob Gutmann talk him through it while playing...

AS far as sucker punches go, that’s up there. Liverpool were absolutely undressed by Manchester City in a manner that demands an immediate response. But fuck the result. Having been clearly the better side for most of the opening period the game was taken away...

DON’T know where to start, don’t know what to say. A result like that hurts — and so it should. On the fourth Emre Can was punching the turf in frustration. And so he should. Many of the travelling support had long since left and headed for home. And...

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,...

“ARSENAL are still a very good team with very good players. I know they’ll get a lot of criticism, especially after our game, but at the same time we were very good. When we play like that, with that intensity, it’s hard for any team to come and perform really....

THE first big league occasion of the season. The first big win. Talking in general terms? Not quite. Last season last year’s champions beat last season’s runners-up but this feels like a north west kind of a season, a north west kind of a campaign. I could...

LIVERPOOL absolutely tore Arsenal apart at Anfield, again. It’s becoming a regular occurrence, but no less pleasurable to witness. Yes, the Gunners had their problems with their midfielders deciding that defending was an optional extra, and Arsene Wenger’s bizarre...
