To describe Liverpool and Manchester City as a “rivalry” is perhaps a bit of a stretch.

During last summer in which Liverpool did some fine business for the long-term, from the unparalleled brilliance of Mohamed Salah to the utility of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, there is one man that has been the unsung hero through all of this - Andy Robertson.

There’s only one place to start. What a man. What a player. Mo’s first hat-trick for Liverpool, the first Premier League...
Liverpool coasted to a 5-0 win against Watford, providing the perfect response to last weekend’s loss to Manchester United in a show dominated by the brilliance of Mohamed Salah.
It took just five minutes for the Egyptian to net his 33rd goal of the season, equally Fernando Torres’ record of thirty-three goals in his debut...
Talking to Trev Downey for the Molby on the Spot podcast this week, Jan Molby gave his opinion on Dejan Lovren after the Man United game: "He's played himself back into trouble, hasn't he? In terms of Mourinho and his tactics, there's no doubt that they picked on Lovren a little bit. They decided...
