THERE we go then on the Newstalk website. Philippe Coutinho. Too lightweight and like a schoolboy. It’s immediately tiring, but it does need to be said that the diminutive Brazilian isn’t above criticism and that he was both poor and a dope — a big,...
AN ARTIST recently approached me on Lark Lane asking me who the next Liverpool legend was. This is actually true, these things happen if you hang around Lark Lane too much. He likes painting cultural icons in a classical style. He’s the fella who did John Lennon...
THE MORNING AFTER. Insides blackened, sweat cascading, kidneys begging for relief. The morning after and the toll feels too great, the day felt too long. There is a burden. There is a cost. How many more of these have I got left in me? It’s only August the...
IT IS DIFFICULT to pinpoint exactly when it started. PHILIP GREENE certainly cannot put his finger on it; the moment when the global transfer market shifted just enough towards the very richest clubs in the world that the rest (and unfortunately Liverpool are now part...
“COUTINHO is the future of Inter.” Massimo Moratti said that. That’s dangerous, isn’t it? The unnecessary risk of the bold statement that can be used out of context to embarrass later. Very dangerous indeed. Philippe Coutinho is the future of Inter. He...

AFTER Liverpool’s terrific 2-1 home victory against Manchester City a somewhat hoarse Neil Atkinson is joined on this week’s podcast by Steve Graves, Jay McKenna and Phil Blundell to talk about how good Joe Allen was and how odd Manchester City...
