I DON’T think I’ll ever quite get over what I witnessed when I travelled to the London stadium for the first time in May. I’d been quite looking forward to it. I’d envisaged something of an architectural gem of a stadium nestled in a futuristic meadow, where just a...

WE’RE nearly there. Can you feel it? The weather getting colder, the clocks have gone back. Not Christmas, but madness. Fixture madness. It comes ever closer. Within 37 days ending on January 1st, every Premier League team is playing 10 league games....

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...

THE only surprising thing about Liverpool conceding comical goals is that people are still surprised. The manager can bang on all he wants about defending as a team and opportunities to defend situations before they hit the back four but sometimes bad defending is...

FOR all Liverpudlians it has already been an exhausting season. The football has been mostly breathless but we’re actually tired of working this team out and it’s still only October. Rampant, attacking football but a glut of missed chances placed incongruously...
