When we overcame Manchester City on the eve of the Premier League season, that Community Shield victory was supposed to lay the pathway for another successful campaign. The first period of this season proved to be a major disappointment, and though we could see there was needs within this Liverpool squad, no one could...
I wrote a piece earlier in the season in relation to Joe Gomez. It was centred around the notable talents this England international possesses, and how his former place in the starting line up could be regained, especially with the injuries to Ibou & Matip. You can see the link here, but unfortunately for...
When FSG announced the club was for sale, there was a moment of surprise, a period of browsing social media, a few group message checks, and finally the wonderment of what we could become. We have been fantastically successful under our current owners, and despite the on-going grumblings of discontent, we couldn’t have won...

Sometimes, a moment comes along that produces some sort of wild shriek, such is either the brilliance or the ineptitude of the incident on show.
My latest embarrassing squeal took place last...
The performance proved to be good enough, but the result was all that truly mattered against Southampton on Saturday. In our last game before the World Cup, Liverpool simply couldn’t afford to surrender any further ground in their fight for a top-four finish. Ultimately, the Reds did prevail and in a certain sense, there’s...
In the lead up to any Premier League game, the managers of the two teams are required to attend a pre-game press conference.
