Christ, that shaved a few years off all our lives eh? What looked set to be a more than comfortable afternoon at Anfield nearly turned into a day of huge frustration. Fortunately, Diogo Jota via a cushioned Pedro Porro assists had other ideas for this one as Anfield shook at the end in a...
Alisson Becker - 6.0
Our player of the season, he was always going to be vital to a positive result. Could do nothing for the opening goal, whilst making a key stop shortly thereafter. Was given little chance for the Son goal or the equalizer, but was able to make crucial moments count.

The rarer something is, the more valuable it becomes. It’s simple supply and demand, as any student of GSCE Economics – I got an A, #humblebrag – can tell you. A copy of Northern Soul belter ‘Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)’ by Frank Wilson once sold for over £100,000 as there are...
Virgil van Dijk believes Liverpool attacker Mohamed Salah doesn’t get the wider credit his record-breaking exploits deserve.
The Egyptian moved level with Robbie Fowler, joint sixth on the club’s all-time list of scorers with 183 goals, when he turned home what proved to be the winner in Saturday’s 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest.
Salah has reached...
It wasn’t the prettiest by any means and the overriding feeling at the final whistle was a sense of relief more than anything else. If Liverpool fans don’t see a long throw-in again until next season it’ll be too soon, but as we’re at the business end a win was all that mattered. The...
Diogo Jota lost something when Liverpool won 6-1 against Leeds United on Monday, though what he retained and gained at Elland Road could prove to be far more important.
The most obvious thing he lost was the ball. A lot. The 26-year-old turned over possession (through mis-controls and unsuccessful touches) on five occasions when the...
It’s hard to know which of the two things was more surprising in all truth. The fact Liverpool got another penalty this season or Mo Salah missing a second consecutive one. He should also have had another late on after Gabriel’s common assault, but the less we say about the officiating in this game...
The best and worst of our turbulent season was presented to the world on Easter Sunday, as the once mighty Reds capitulated before a shell-shocked crowd, before being driven to an emphatic home draw by the same Anfield support. The game should have had a winner, with Liverpool desperate to land the knockout blow...
None of what we are watching is acceptable. The performance against Manchester City was appalling. Everyone knows that Liverpool cannot compete with the Etihad’s spending. The players can work as hard as Pep Guardiola’s team, though.
They didn’t.
Chelsea wasn’t much better. Jurgen Klopp talked about “small steps” forward. Didn’t see that myself. Chelsea are crap....
Another away game and yet another loss. This was probably the most anticipated result of Liverpool’s season, with a complete difference in both class and endeavour from the two sides. Where this game had previously represented the meeting of England’s top two sides for 4-5 years, this was a million miles away from that...
