ANYONE who thinks the climbdown by the Premier League’s “big six” over project “Big Picture” means that the discussion is over is fooling himself. What Liverpool and Manchester United achieved is the fact that the genie is now out of the bottle and big changes will inevitably happen sooner rather than later. Personally I think if these socalled elite want a European Super League then close the door behind you but don’t expect to be allowed back when the realisatio­n sinks in that the Emperor’s new clothes are in fact a soulless substituti­on for the real thing.

It’s fair to say that one or two decisions or non-decisions went against Liverpool at Everton last Saturday but am I the only one to think it’s a tad hypocritic­al of them to demand a review of the VAR protocol? Where were they last season when it was equally badly implemente­d? It was also laughable to watch the attempts by Liverpool fans to lobby the FA and Parliament for the return of “our lost two points” and their demands that Jordon Pickford and Richarliso­n should be “banned for as long as Van Dijke and Thiago are out injured”. It’s true what they say about Scouse humour though, after all who can forget the public relations disaster that saw the players and staff donning “we support Luis” T shirts?
