37 becomes 47. Luke was one of them already but he joins the pantheon of great captains in Team Europe's history. Maybe up there as the best, to win both home and away in this era. Far too close for comfort but winning in this environment, under the pressure, is one hell of an achievement.

Where's Rory?

Someone get Shane a Guinness, you beauty!!!!!!

You're welcome Villa 😜

Villa are a hard watch right now.

There was an hour on the back nine of that fourballs round that may well be the most dominant Europe have ever been in an away Ryder Cup. Covered every move, snuffed out all the momentum. Didn't quite land all four points, but the tension just subsided as a constant wave of putts rolled in.

Lowry shouting “Fuck you!” to a heckler as he sinks a winning putt. Beautiful 😍

Back to the Ryder Cup it is.

Song for GW6. So much discussion about fortune running out and the luck we had first half/luck that eluded us second half. You can't ride it forever. Hopefully a reality check we can use in the tests ahead.

Bellissima!!!!

Rory McIlroy saying what we were all thinking #RyderCup

Not watching, hanging in there are we?

#LFC Xl v Crystal Palace: Alisson; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Wirtz; Isak. Subs: Mamardashvili, Gomez, Endo, Chiesa, Jones, Gakpo, Robertson, Frimpong, Ngumoha

No surprises that Donald goes unchanged for the morning. Staggered Bradley has changed so little. Looks like the plan for EU is to play all 12 again, maybe something like this order in the afternoon: Rahm/Straka Rory/Shane Hovland/Hojgaard Fleetwood/Rose

Highlight of Ryder Cup day 1? Rose nailing a 35ft putt and screaming "You want a piece of me" at the eejits in the gallery. Summed up Europe's response today. Not taking any shit.

The kid was excellent too. Shocker of an injury, you could almost tell immediately it was the kind of thing we all fear.

Nice cameo from Danns in all the ineptitude. Looked on one.

Frimpong is all of us... #lfc

Fede is playing on the weekend isn't he?

Hugo Ekitike is the first Liverpool player to both score and be red carded in the same game at Anfield since Steven Gerrard v Aston Villa in September 2001. #LFC

Hugo Ekitike is a superstar but that is the most stupid red card in the history of association football.

Liverpool have now won 6 consecutive games by exactly one goal - the longest ever run of one-goal wins in the club's entire history. #LFC

FT 2-1. We just can't stop winning (after doing daft things). Comedy of errors for their equaliser, followed by the best individual moment from Fede to tee up Ekitike. The red card, silliest I've seen in many a year. Feel for Leoni. Hopefully nothing major but looked ominously like an ACL.

HT 1-0. A bit ponderous, but Isak's first goal capitalises on Southampton's missed sitter at the other end. Gomez, Endo and Frimpong all pretty poor, Leoni strong defensively, Chiesa having fun. Would like to see more of Rio and Nyoni on the ball. Not terrible though for a scratch team.

Debuts, veterans, hot young thing and a record transfer needing minutes. It’s a Milk Cup line up alright, Clive.

Giorgi Mamardashvili will be the first Georgian player ever to play for Liverpool. Georgia is now the 50th nationality to have a player appear for #LFC. It's the first new nation for the club since Colombia with Luis Díaz in February 2022.

We keep going.

The Carra, Micah and Keane discussion about City dropping off is entertaining and everything, but not one has mentioned the need for pressure on the ball. Eze has the freedom of the park to make the key pass.

It’s just going to be a very funny seasons with Arteta and Pep doing various weird versions of struggle ball control while Liverpool YOLO it out of their ears.

Two losers. You love to see it. Meanwhile the one winnner:

Will definitely take it. 5 points ahead of Arsenal, 8 ahead of City. Guardiola playing 5-4-1 though. Maybe the pragmatists won???

No Gary, they're not the quickest, and they're certainly not the best.

Daft defensively from Arsenal, getting caught out that high up.

Not starting Eze in a must-win game. He doesn't learn does he?

Yes Botswana!!!!

Relay chaos in these conditions.

When Ajax meet PSV today, it will mark their 2,050th consecutive match with at least one academy graduate in the starting line-up, a tradition unbroken since September 1981. wp.me/p7N1aT-48

Serious company.

5 - Liverpool have won each of their opening five matches of a top-flight season for only the fifth time, after 1978-79, 1990-91, 2018-19, and 2019-20. Famous.

Matt was a lovely bloke who really cared about his players, I don't know anyone who covered women's football in England who's ever had a bad word to say about him. Women's football is poorer for his passing.

Liverpool Football Club is deeply shocked and saddened by the sudden passing of former LFC Women manager Matt Beard. The thoughts of everyone at the club are with Matt’s family and friends at this devastating time.

That's a red regardless of where he was on the pitch. Not the first time Sanchez has had a Schumacher moment either.

Sanchez, what on earth?

Should terrify everyone. Haven't got close to clicking in the league and could well be six points ahead of the chasing pack by 7pm tomorrow.

Apparently Grealish was moaning that he didn’t get enough free-kicks today.

Milos Kerkez 25/26 PL 62% ground duel win rate is superb Who had him at 59% aerial? And only dribbled past twice despite facing Semenyo, Elanga, Madueke and Ndiaye. Plus he's younger than Bradley. The narrative around him needs to change ASAP #lfc

Liverpool have won 12 of the last 13 league matches in which they had something at stake. Proper team.

Early kickoffs transition into being supremely boss when you’ve won and get to relax the rest of the weekend while others have to graft yet

Song for GW5. Sending a message to the other side, down at the dock. "Redbird, don't say you told me so. Give me one more song to go."

This fixture was a bear trap after going Sun-Wed-early Sat + Ev being much better this season. Think 2nd half you could see Ev had a whole week off. Didn't give up much 2nd half either, kerkez and konate really good and VVD his normal self #lfc
