“NO time for losers.” That’s what Freddie Mercury tells us, and Liverpool fans fully agreed with him as they belted out We Are The Champions after last season’s Champions League win in Madrid. There is absolutely no time for any losers, because of course, “We are the...
DEATH, taxes and Liverpool victories. They’re not the three only certain things in life, just three things that seem to be annoying the vast majority of the nation at the moment. The latter seems to be particularly annoying to former Manchester City player Trevor...
IN Paris on Monday night, the titanic clash between Liverpool and Barcelona was again on show as the best players from both teams waited to see who had been named the 2019 Ballon d’Or winner. It would turn out to be Lionel Messi’s night as he pipped Virgil van Dijk to...
IT is all so predictable, they say. The introduction of VAR is “clearly and obviously” being used as a tool to ensure that Liverpool win the league title, just as they suspected. You can only presume that the Twitter Sherlock’s peddling this cock of the poppiest kind...
TIS the season. No, not that season. Not yet, despite the thousands of identikit Christmas adverts we’ve been subjected to already. Seeing as everyone else is at it, I’ve had an idea for a Liverpool one. A young brother and sister are waking up at obscenely early...

WHAT a moment. What a header. What a turnaround. At 4.44pm on Saturday, it seemed like Liverpool’s unbeaten record might be over. Not just for this season, but a record that stretches back all the way to January 22, 2018. The last time Liverpool lost in the league to...
THERE’S something a bit ‘fish in a barrel’ about writing an article on a player immediately after he’s put in an excellent performance. That’s why this is likely to be at least the fifth or sixth piece you will have read on Fabinho since his colossal showing...
IT didn’t feel like I thought it would. There was undoubtedly relief as Adam Lallana prodded in a late equaliser to retain Liverpool’s unbeaten start to the league campaign, but Jamie Carragher pulling out ‘Blue Steel’ as Gary Neville sank in his chair in...
YOU can never truly trust social media. There I was, harmlessly scrolling through Twitter on Sunday night, when I saw a number of posts to the effect of “What a goal from Wijnaldum,” “What has Wijnaldum just done?!” and even “OMGini!” It was tremendous news that...
