PERCEPTION is an intriguing concept in football. The perception of our modern-day footballers can gain influence both directly and unconsciously through the things we absorb from the plethora of content we consume daily. Gone are the days when your only football-based...
TOM JOHNSON I’M writing this the week after our new £75million colossus of a centre back scored a late winner on his debut, in the derby, in the FA Cup third round. It doesn’t get much more Roy of the Rovers than that. But, it’s another central defender who recently...
That was good wasn’t it? Liverpool were dreadful but Virgil van Dijk popped up to win the match for the Mighty Boys In Red and Liverpool swagger away into the distance into the fourth round of the FA Cup. The Reds found a way, found a third consecutive 2-1 win...
A special Gutter to discuss and celebrate Liverpool signing Virgil van Dijk. How significant is the statement of intent both inside and outside of the club? Were Manchester City still after the player? What should we be expecting from him this season? Joining an...

LAST Thursday the transfer window closed, or “slammed shut” if you prefer to use Sky’s exaggerated term (I’m not sure that a deadline can “slam” as such), with Liverpool making some pretty decent purchases in the allotted time. The signing of...
SO, how are we today? I went to bed at 10.55pm, about five hours after we pretty much knew that nothing was going to happen but only five minutes before the unbearable “slamming shut” of the window, the point that Jim White’s transfer knowledge would bring...
