Ahhhh the famous false dawn ... we wondered where you’d got too. Football can change so quickly and after last weekend's unbridled joy, Saturdays early kick-off at the Vitality provided ultimate sorrow. Liverpool lost to bottom of the table Bournemouth 1-0 and truth be told they could have played for another 90 minutes and...

Alisson Becker - 6.0
A steady first half, which saw him repel an advancing counter attack wide, before being let down for the opening goal. Was a relative bystander for much of the second half, as the reds looked to get back into the game.
Trent Alexander Arnold...
In the build up to this historic fixture, I stated how it may look if the Reds were to come within seven points of their fiercest rivals. Given that the Old Trafford outfit were enjoying their best season in years (whilst Liverpool are suffering their worst), it does paint a rather amusing picture for...
What a time to be alive. No-one, whatever they actually claim could have predicted what was to come on a Sunday afternoon that left us with sore heads on a Monday morning. It’s great to be able to say it - Liverpool embarrassed, humiliated and annihilated Manchester United. Seven-Nil still sounds incredible to be...

This adaptation of our style is ever increasing the level of our elite assets, with our Egyptian King looking back to his deadliest best. 22 goals in an off season isn’t bad at the start of March, and you feel that he...

Alisson Becker - 9.0
Had such little work to do, with the reds ramping up as the game progressed. Was smart in possession and dealt with the couple of half chances that came his way. I’m rating him high, as it’s that kind of result.
Trent Alexander...
In a turnaround of recent events, the reds continued to pick up vital Premier League points, after their bore draw with Palace, and humbling by Real Madrid. The return to form saw a controlled performance built upon desire and efficiency, with a 2-0 loss possibly flattering the visiting side.
At centre back, we saw the...
Yesterday I ordered a new thermos to take with me when I am out and about, to add to the three or four vessels of insulated coffee that accompany me on my varying journeys. At some point during the second half, I started checking the different foods and soups I could place within my...
A hangover, Real Madrid still playing on their minds etc etc. Whichever way you dress it up or whatever excuses could be made, this was a terrible game of football. Crystal Palace’s own struggles aside, it’s hard to believe this was a team who are supposed to be chasing champions league football and as...

Alisson Becker - 6.0
The chance to redeem himself, after a tough Champions League week. He was solid enough, especially as his side seemed poised to gift the home side a big chance through the first half. Was largely a second half spectator, in a very...
