Cod Liverpool.

You are not being unfair.

I read somewhere that Arsenal have had four red cards since Arteta took over. You can just imagine the players bring told to show some more fire! don't let them walk all over you! put a foot in! Which is fine for fans. For managers, not so much.

Me watching Arsenal and Leicester's 'efforts': Jurgen Klopp - where have you been all my life?

My son said recently that "Liverpool are my football club, Waterford are my hurling club and Ireland are my rugby club". I'll soon cure him of that rugby nonsense.

You don't have to be stealing a living etc

The last ten days have been one long dopamine hit.

First day at the club: We all knew he was going to be boss, didn't we?

It's been disgraceful that Liverpool have failed to locate any locals in recent times. The idea that there wasn't one teenager in a football-mad city capable of playing for a team that was struggling to make the top four was a damning indictment of the Academy. Now they have found two who look at home in the best team in the world. Just champion.

I thought Mané was great business right from the off, mainly because Everton bought Bolasie for similar money which allowed Palace to take Benteke off Liverpool's hands. Looked at like that, Mané was a gamble with house money. Thankfully I have never done anything silly on the internet, which I can say with confidence having disabled any use of 'Balotelli' in the search function.

At least we can look forward to Dave dropping the J-bomb in the weekly round-up.

2,500 pace goals don't count.
