IT’S going to be a rushed job, this. Who previews Liverpool at home to Leicester at Christmas? There’s stuff to do. It’s a busy time. I gave myself a Christmas break, in honour of Jürgen Klopp and his people. They love a mid-season break in central Europe. My...
IN the wake of Watford 3 Liverpool 0, Neil Atkinson is joined by Gareth Roberts and Melissa Reddy to pick the bones out of another disappointing defeat. Neil and Robbo have a heated argument about the character, or lack of, in the team and how much it’s...
VERY poor wasn’t it? From back to front. A keeper who can’t catch, a defence who can’t clear, a midfield who can’t pass and a forward line that can’t even stand onside. Baffling how clueless they were. How easily they were dragged down to...
WHO do you get in touch with? Liverpool abject. Watford excellent. Softest opener, though let me see lads around the ref. Softest second, Martin Skrtel bullied into obsolescence, the finish from Odion Igahlo divine. Softest third, Emre Can making it too easy and then...
IT’S a funny old game, Saint. Funny, funny old game. You crack me up, Greavsie. No, Greavsie. You really do. You really crack me up. The Saint and the Greavsie — the Ian St John and the Jimmy Greaves — were staples on the football preview shows on...

ANOTHER Sad Sunday. Only one win in six after Europa League football. But where we tired? Or clueless? Or can we just not defend set pieces? Make your own mind up. I’m just here to give scores. Simon Mignolet 3 Looks awful for the first. Little positive after...
SION no possible reviews. West Brom 23 different reviews. There’s an awareness watching the game now that there need to be words. They can be words of love or words of anger or words of storytelling or words of analysis but there need to be words. The match...
NEIL Jones of the Liverpool Echo and Jonathan Northcroft of the Sunday Times were at the Anfield Wrap studio this week to provide guest slots on the TAW Unwrapped podcast. The chat and the buzz were over Liverpool’s fall from a cliff at Newcastle the previous weekend...
WHEN it comes to sport, at my heart, I am a bit of a pessimist. Not one that drones on and on with constant negativity, but rather one who is very reluctant to get carried away too quickly. In 2014, as Liverpool’s steam train rolled relentlessly on towards the league...
