Thursday night wasn't pretty, was it? In a game where Liverpool pressed from the start and looked determined to lay down another marker, City just picked The Reds off with...
Liverpool’s Premier League title-winning hangover kicked off as they were resoundingly beaten 4-0 by a dominant Manchester City side at the Etihad Stadium. What are the key stats from the first game since the Reds lifted their first title in 30 years?
Pep’s Revenge
This was Liverpool’s heaviest Premier League defeat in almost three years –...
Liverpool and the music scene are inextricably linked.
Music and football too are the closest of bedfellows. Liverpool F.C. is synonymous with song and musical theatre through the medium of Gerry
Marsden's anthem; the famous rolling strains of the song from Carousel and those iconic words of love and support, You'll Never Walk Alone.
It is far...
For Liverpool, Thursday's trip to the Etihad peaked before it had even begun. The side who had come out on top last season in the most agonising circumstances were reduced to rolling out the red carpet for the most dominant champions in Premier League history as they took to the field.

Anyway, here's my first ratings piece since Liverpool were declared champions. In...
Liverpool's title party was brought to an abrupt end after they were walloped 4-0 by Manchester City at the Etihad.
Goals from Kevin de Bruyne, Raheem Sterling, Phil Foden, and an Alex Oxlade Chamberlain own goal condemned the full-strength, yet at times shambolic Reds to a heavy defeat. Despite some good chances, the visitors --...
"Part of me can't help but think that the side that beat us to win the league by a point have strengthened while we've stood still."
That's what I tweeted on 7 August 2019. Manchester City had just broken the bank for a big-name full-back again, this time Juventus' Joao Cancelo. Earlier in the summer,...
The ongoing global pandemic has already had a big impact on football finances.
With games returning behind closed doors, clubs have been deprived of matchday revenues, in terms of hospitality, ticket sales, and other streams of income, such as club shop sales. Additionally, and more impactfully, television rebates — even given the fact they have...
