Before the worldwide coronavirus pandemic ground the Premier League season to what we are assured is a temporary halt, Liverpool looked set to win the league title at a canter.

Liverpool squandered a 2-0 lead and now must face Shrewbury in an FA Cup 4th round replay after a Jason Cummings inspired comeback saw the home team secure a memorable 2-2 draw. The Reds were 2-0 up — thanks to a Curtis Jones goal and a Donald Love own goal — but substitute Cummings, through […]
In the end, Liverpool were probably lucky they didn’t lose the game on the day. Jurgen Klopp will be annoyed at the prospect of having to play a replay against Shrewsbury as well, but this was the least that the hosts deserved, as the lax Reds were pegged back from 2-0 up, as the game […]

Kevin de Bruyne, under Pep Guardiola, is a phenomenon, involved in everything Manchester City do on a football pitch. Without him, as evidenced by the performance against […]
Approximately 6:15pm on Sunday, September 22nd: Liverpool supporters are going through hell. Leading 2-1 at Stamford Bridge despite a shoddy, tired-looking second-half performance, they are on the rack away to Chelsea. Mason Mount has already missed a glorious opportunity to ensure the Blues become the first team to take points off the Reds this season […]
