Van Dijk
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. Andy Robertson’s gang of beautiful lads […]

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 […]
Dejan Lovren has been lauded with his fair share of warranted praise in recent weeks, benefiting from the leadership and guidance of Virgil van Dijk after his £75million summer switch. Heck, I wrote an article just last week on how he represented the best partner for the Dutchman. The 2-2 draw against Tottenham back in […]
Liverpool made their way to Old Trafford in the best of form as the Premier League’s marquee fixture finally lived up to its billing, with the Red Devils emerging 2-1 victors. Marcus Rashford’s first-half brace put Manchester United in command, but Liverpool didn’t give up without a fight. Eric Bailly’s calamitous own goal gave Liverpool some hope, […]
Games between Liverpool and Manchester United at Old Trafford tend to follow a certain narrative with a free-flowing attacking unit coming up against a double-decker bus. Then there’s the referee who’s never too far from the headlines. This game was no different, providing the perfect illustration of a Mourinho-Klopp showdown in an affair dominated by […]
Liverpool were so ‘un-Liverpool’ like in attack, and so ‘Liverpool’ in their defence as they slumped to defeat at Old Trafford. The second half was a better performance and the ref was a nutcase, but that does not take away a shambolic defensive performance in first half. Loris Karius (5) –Â Left high and dry for […]

Despite stark divisions between their position in the Premier League table, this looked like a testing fixture for Liverpool. Newcastle hadn’t lost a league game for over two and a half months, bar Manchester City while Rafa’s ability to grind out an unlikely point meant he could never truly be ruled out the contest. The […]
It was a tough opening half to the game as Newcastle defended in an organized manner, but once Salah put Liverpool ahead, there was always going to be only one winner. This is how the Reds fared. Loris Karius (8) –Â Was a spectator for most of the match, but when called upon, made a world-class […]
