It is the Anfield rap, Neil Atkinson, with Patty Fitzsimons,

Ian Ryan and Andy Bell, for the next 40 minutes or or so taking the opportunity with

there not being a game this week to take stock of where we are you might want

to download the Anfield rap app everything you need around Liverpool and

obviously looking ahead to the game against IACs.

Losing the weekend does give us the opportunity as to where this is.

I'd love to be taking stock in a way of going, God, there's loads of stock instead.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing to have a lot of stock.

Texting if you're a shopkeeper and you've got stock news for me.

But let's take stock, Ian Ryan, nine points, minus five on City at this point, a heavy and frankly really rather than Barrison

showing against Napoli in the Champions League.

It feels worse than that reality, you know what I mean?

It's one game gone in the Champions League the hardest away game

that you can lose at any time but it feels like more than minus five on city it

feels like fewer than nine points it actually feels worse than the reality which

is in one sense good I mean it might not be good for all of our

well-being. That's true it does feel a lot worse and I think you've almost got to

keep checking the league tables I make sure no one's made a mistake here.

It is definitely five behind city and six behind the arsenal isn't it?

Yeah it is because it does feel a lot worse than it and I think it's because it's compounded

by the nature of the games and how they've gone and I think how poorly Liverpool would have played.
