A Merseyside Derby to forget, Carlo Ancelotti’s progress and Dejan Lovren’s consistency

Liverpool may have to wait for their title after a scoreless draw to forget at Goodison Park. It was a game that deserved to be played in an empty stadium and Everton could have made Liverpool’s run in even more tense if they had taken their chances or capitalised on the arrival of Dejan Lovren. It was like Lovren had never been away which wasn’t a good thing for Liverpool. On Sunday’s Football Spin, Nooruddean Choudry looks at Lovren’s career and his apparent political leanings and wonders what it is that links them while Paddy McKenna explains what Carlo Ancelotti is doing to make Everton great again.
