Pre Match The team has dropped, as have jaws all over the world. Big Si the Mig is captain. I’m not a million miles away from going for a nice big walk and adding my season ticket to the river of flames. I genuinely, honest to the good lord on high, couldn’t think of...

TWO home games where the away side park the bus sees a 6-0 aggregate win with plenty to spare. Not least two penalty misses. This side must be doing something right. Regardless of the opposition. Everything isn’t all rosy in the garden yet, but winning is more...

Today was the day for Jurgen Klopp to rip it up and start again. Calls for anyone centre half, and I mean anyone, other than Degsy Lovren and anyone with gloves (any gloves) in goal aside from The Mig were being lashed about all over the show. Kloppo, kept his cool,...

GAME intelligence: 0/10 Nouse: 0/10 Bollocks: 1/10 Fucking hell… Simon Mignolet: 1 Fucking hell. Absolutely shite for their first. Shithouse in the extreme where he dives out of the way. I do wonder how his face ended up so flat when he would never, ever dream...

Pre Match JUST switched on as their team was flashing up on BT. It would appear that they are playing a ’60s soul band upfront, so let’s hope Heaven is indeed missing an angel and it is wearing burnt orange or whatever the fuck colour our kit is. It’s also a...

YET again we are frustrated by the supposed best manager in world football, who turns up at Anfield and uses the same game plan as Derek Adams of Plymouth Argyle did last January. Actually if Adams had spent £400million on his squad maybe even he’d have been...

ANOTHER day, another game and another 90 minutes where you couldn’t relax for a second. Coming a day after Tottenham comfortably won 4-0, and Manchester United comfortably won 4-0, Manchester City won away at Chelsea, and on the same day that Arsenal gained an easy...

HOLD on while I dust off my template opening for most Liverpool games over the last few years. Something something unlucky. Something else poor finishing. Something or other incredible opposition goalkeeping, and then also sloppy goal conceded. Blah blah blah beer in...

I DIDN’T see the game on Tuesday night. I was otherwise engaged, but as ever when I can’t watch the game live, I spend 90 minutes constantly refreshing Twitter to see how things are going. The first 65 minutes went like this: “Liverpool have started brightly.” “The...

Pre Match: THERE’S something about Leicester. Sounds like the shittest ever film sequel that, doesn’t it? Where a fella pretending to have a disability, one whose face starts to melt the closer he gets to the city and a small-time crook with horrific dress sense...
