I’ve never taken defeat against Manchester United well. Even back in the eighties when we were THE team, in our era of domination, defeat to them was particularly sour. Maybe it was because I had friends who supported them and it was their rare opportunity to taunt me. They were still a big club,...
Liverpool steamrollered Watford 5-0, with Mo Salah turning up the heat on a bitterly cold evening at Anfield. But as Liverpool moved further clear of Chelsea, what were the key stats?
The Mo Salah Show
There’s only one place to start. What a man. What a player. Mo’s first hat-trick for Liverpool, the first Premier League...
There was something so routine and yet so unbelievable about that. For a player who scores so frequently, it's mad that it's Mo Salah's first hat-trick. Even crazier that he decided to score four, not three.
Liverpool 5-0 Watford - into the home-stretch of the season with a win.

As I write this the early days of April 2018 contain the following fixtures.
Wed 4th April: Liverpool v Manchester City
Saturday 7th April: Everton v Liverpool
Tuesday 10th April: Manchester City v Liverpool
Three games in six days that will provide a season’s worth of drama and mayhem. Talk about make or break.

After a disappointing outing in enemy territory last weekend, Liverpool will be looking to get back on track when they welcome Watford to Anfield on Saturday evening.
The Reds will be desperate for the three points to get back on track after an impressive run of form was halted in an indifferent performance against Manchester...
I recently wrote an article discussing whether Liverpool had found themselves a new left-back and compared Andy Robertson's stats to his team-mate and rival for the position Alberto Moreno. Having made some interesting findings I thought it would be a good idea to see how the Scott compares to some of the Premier league's...
Liverpool’s aura of invincibility was always going to be pierced at some point.
Retrospectively, it was almost inevitable that Jose Mourinho and the “anti-football” rhetoric that surrounds his Manchester United side would be the pin that burst Jürgen Klopp’s bubble. Following a dismal exit in the FA Cup at the hands of West Bromwich Albion,...

Liverpool are five points behind United in the race for second place. They do seem to be in good shape to guarantee top four as long as they can avoid defeat at Stamford...
“Liverpool shouldn’t fear anyone.” This is the common statement, trotted out by everyone from fans, pundits and players. And if you’re expecting this to be the part of the article where I mount an argument that disagrees with this parable, well then you clearly haven’t read any of my articles before. Because I am...
Old Trafford hasn't been a happy hunting ground for Liverpool over the years. This weekend's result ensured that remained the case. United did what United do and took their chances and then held on for dear life.
Our rivals were aided and abetted by a criminally incompetent refereeing performance. How Craig Pawson can call himself...
