Liverpool have been behind three times in their five league games so far this season, so are The Reds’ slow starts to games here to stay? I’VE been reading Joe Calzaghe’s autobiography.
The most enlightening part of the book was his confession that he wasn’t always the best champion. That’s rare in a sport based on self-belief and histrionic shouts, but the ‘Italian Dragon’ admits that motivation waxed and waned during 10-year reign.
In one chapter he seems embarrassed at a workmanlike display he put on in an early title defence.
The season is only five games down and we’ve already gone behind three times.
