I was round my parents yesterday for the weekend and as I was starting the prep for Sunday roast with the old man I decided to put the game on between Liverpool and Wolves in the second half. It was 2-0, I wasn't expecting anything other than a slow canter towards three points for the [...]
Yesterday I was writing about the rotten luck we've had this season in the wake of the Kai Havertz rumours. It felt like we couldn't get any more bad luck this season, the level we've had from pretty much August onward, but then I forgot the propensity of the footballing gods to keep on battering [...]
It kind of feels like an international break right now, doesn't it, eh? There's a bit of radio silence save for the odd snap of the team in Dubai, the players will all be flying back today so we'll not get much content of interest other than them boarding the plane to head home, then [...]
Happy Sunday folks. Hope you're all doing well. Still feels weird that most of the footballing world (in terms of Premier League Teams) are playing this weekend and our players are sunning themselves in Dubai. I know how relentless it all has been over the last six weeks or so, but I was listening to [...]
With such a barrage of football having been played in January and then ending for us this week, part of me is glad for a bit of a reset, but part of me is frustrated that it ended on a low of that Newcastle performance on Wednesday night. If we still had the taste of [...]
Well now, it appears as though we got away with one yesterday, eh? After the disappointment of the Brighton game, I think a lot of us had thought “that’s it. All over. Liverpool to canter to the title now” but here we all are, the morning after they have drawn 2-2 with what has been [...]
I watched the mentalness that was The Scum against the Scousers last night in a Durban airport and although I wanted to see Liverpool drop points, it’s hard not to have a wry smile about how terrible Tottenham are at the back. Yes, I know they have injuries, but playing your back line on the [...]
Happy Friday folks - hope you're all good? It's my last working day today and also my last in the UK for the next three weeks, as I jet off to South Africa for the holidays, so it was fun to learn that the Scum almost blew a three-goal lead in the League Cup last [...]
I wasn't able to watch the game yesterday, as I was at a Christmas get together with the family (we're off over Christmas so this was a bit of a non-negotiable from The Management's family), but I've seen the goals and a few of the Arsenal chances, so today's musings will be very much 'vibes' [...]
I watched almost all of the Liverpool v Man City game in a state of shock and surprise. You could see the visible embodiment of confidence and a lack thereof with the two teams on display. For that first half Liverpool completely dominated City, who looked shell-shocked, with some of the stats that popped up [...]
