Hahaha, you wouldn't actually believe how pleased I was when that stoppage time Riyad Mahrez goal was ruled out by VAR. I don't know about you, reader, but 5-0 looks so much worse than 4-0. You're halfway to ten goals at 5-0 up!
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 --...
“Doubters to believers”
A mantra that Jurgen Klopp has drummed into the Liverpool faithful from day one. For decades, three of them to be precise, Liverpool had mounted a few real title challenges, only to fall desperately short and fade into mediocrity thereafter.
We’ve seen managerial changes, changes of ownership and players come and go. Still,...

A performance of intensity and control yielded goals from Trent Alexander Arnold, Mohamed Salah, Fabinho and Sadio Mané and put the Reds within two points of the title, although a Chelsea win over Manchester...
Liverpool players are often accused of being too reliant on the system they’re being deployed in. It’s used as a criticism and as a way to downplay the achievements of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.
“In other teams, they’d be nowhere near as effective.”
And while this might be true, it’s actually adding weight...
Liverpool were back in Premier League action for the first time in over three months and it was an absolutely rubbish game of football. A 0-0 draw at Goodison Park feels like a story we’ve heard before, and sadly Liverpool’s wait for the title will now extend beyond their home game against Crystal Palace...
Since returning to the Premier League, Mohamed Salah has been utterly dominant. The Liverpool No.11 has claimed back to back Golden Boot awards and when the 2019/20 campaign was paused, the Egyptian had 16 goals to his name. A third Golden Boot was unlikely but not impossible. Remarkable considering he played a large chunk...
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.
