They Function Like A Five-A-Side Team – Liverpool Legend Rips Into Chelsea
Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has slammed Chelsea after their disappointing 2-0 defeat to Everton in their Premier League clash on Sunday evening. Everton secured their first league win at home in over two months with an impressive victory over Champions League-chasing Chelsea.

Liverpool Should Have Signed This Goalkeeper In The Summer – Club Legend
Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has disclosed that the Anfield giants should have signed England goalkeeper Joe Hart during the transfer window in the summer. Souness was speaking on the goalkeeping situation at his former club, which has come under the spotlight after German first choice keeper Loris Karius' underwhelming performance during last week's 4-3 loss to Bournemouth as he conceded three goals in the last 15 minutes, via his column in The Times. In his words, he said: "With Liverpool’s attacking style, the goalkeeper is not asked to do very much but Loris Karius has not exactly covered himself in glory." "Are they any better off with this guy, than they have been with Simon Mignolet in recent years? I’d suggest not. Joe Hart is better than either. … [Read more...]
