BRENDAN RODGERS likes to talk. He loves reciting a story with a happy ending. Especially if he stars in it. It’s safe to say that right now the Liverpool manager has built up plenty of goodwill with the club’s fanbase and the media at large. He deserves it. He’s done...
BIG BEN struck 11, the transfer window ‘slammed’ shut. Jim White made a noise that sounded like he enjoys deadline day a little too much. Reporters were getting it in the ear, so to speak, and Liverpool ended the day without any new players coming through...
