BEAT the shite by five, win the league. Ratings in the key of life: Loris Karius: C Best game in his short Liverpool career. Made a couple of smart stops when Liverpool decided that they didn’t want him to to freeze to death for 10 minutes. One excellent stop...

THE Reds. Top of the league. This: – They deserve to be. – Only 11 games gone. – Book nothing for March and April and May. Make no plans. Expect to travel long distances. Prepare to resolve all situations. There is nothing but this right now. How do...
