Mohamed Salah has once again been criticised by his Muslim followers after posting a picture of him and his family in front of a Christmas tree. The Liverpool star, who is a Muslim, captioned the photo with ‘#MerryChristmas’. As has become the tradition for them, he, his wife wife Magi, and daughters Makka and Kayan posed in matching pyjamas for his Christmas post, smiling in front of their tree and a gingerbread person. Muslims do not traditionally celebrate Christmas but some do partake in the festivities that take place during the Christian holiday. ‘You let me down bro,’ wrote one…
Considering the major changes that happened to Liverpool in 2024 — with Jurgen Klopp leaving, Michael Edwards and Julian Ward returning, and Richard Hughes arriving as sporting director — it is not easy to predict what might be in store in 2025. You would imagine that the changes won’t be quite so substantial, though it should be noted that Liverpool has coped well on the pitch regardless. But there are some big decisions that need to be made. Here, Liverpool.com has picked out the four things we think will ‘definitely’ happen in the new year. You can let us know…
Slot’s wife and kids remained in the Netherlands while he moved to England to coach the Reds, and he has enjoyed a near-perfect start to life on Merseyside. Liverpool sit four points clear at the top of the Premier League with a game in hand over nearest challengers Chelsea heading into the jam-packed festive schedule. They also hold a perfect record in Europe, winning all six of their Champions League group fixtures so far to sit top of the table. Slot succeeded Jurgen Klopp and many expected a bedding-in season for the Dutchman. Arne Slot’s opinion of himself sums up…
It’s safe to say Arne Slot has taken the Premier League by storm since replacing Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool boss. The Dutchman has spearheaded the Reds to the top of the league standings and has settled in seamlessly at Anfield. While the likes of Sipke Hulshoff and Ruben Peeters joined him from Feyenoord, John Heitinga was appointed as assistant manager earlier in the summer as Slot made key additions to the Liverpool backroom staff. And now, the Dutchman has made an interesting admission on Heitinga, who has earned rave reviews for his time at the club so far. Arne Slot…
Liverpool’s impressive season goes on with a 6-3 win over Tottenham on Sunday. The result moved the Reds four points clear of Chelsea, who could only draw 0-0 with Everton at Goodison Park. The Reds will now be top of the Premier League table on Christmas day and have a chance to cement their position with a home match against Leicester City on Boxing day. Although Liverpool conceded three against Tottenham on Sunday, it is hard to be anything other than impressed with the systematic dismantling of Spurs. Perhaps the most impressive feature of the game was that the scoreline…
What a job Arne Slot has done at Liverpool. As the end of 2024 approaches, the Dutchman could hardly have made a better start to life on Merseyside. What looked like the impossible job following Jurgen Klopp’s departure has been made to look a lot easier by Slot, who has led his side to the top of the Premier League and the Champions League’s opening phase, as well as the Carabao Cup semi-finals. Here is what some of the managers Liverpool have come up against this season have had to say on Slot’s impact, with some of the biggest names…
Five Reds are just one booking away from serving a one-match suspension for accumulating five cautions during the first half of the top-flight season. Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo both received their fourth yellow cards of the Premier League season during the 6-3 victory over Tottenham on Sunday. Darwin Nunez, Ryan Gravenberch and Ibrahima Konate have previously reached four bookings, while Alexis Mac Allister has already served a one-match ban for picking up five yellows in the top-flight term. Players who accumulate five bookings within the first 19 Premier League games receive a one-match ban. The rule then changes to…
Arne Slot’s men have been in top form this season and are perched at the top of the league standings with 39 points from 16 games. They currently have a four-point lead over second-placed Chelsea, which could be extended to seven should they win their game in hand. Liverpool are coming into the clash off the back of an impressive 6-3 win over Tottenham Hotspur. Meanwhile, Leicester have been defensively poor under new boss Ruud van Nistelrooy. They suffered a 4-0 loss against Newcastle United (December 14), before losing 3-0 to Wolverhampton Wanderers over the weekend. The Foxes are in…
Arne Slot has Liverpool in a great position this Christmas – but the Reds know only too well that can mean very little at the end of the season. Slot has enjoyed a sensational first six months in charge at Anfield, having won 21 of his 25 games in charge across all competitions, and his side is on course for silverware in 2025. The Reds will spend Christmas Day top of the Premier League, where they hold a four-point advantage over nearest challengers Chelsea, while Arsenal sits six points behind, and Manchester City already looks to be out of the…
Leicester City face one of their toughest tests of the season on Boxing Day when they host league leaders Liverpool. The Reds are the runaway leaders at the top of the Premier League and have only lost in the league once this season whereas for Leicester, it’s been a bit more difficult. Ruud van Nistelrooy’s side are two points clear of the bottom three but, with Leicester facing a difficult Christmas run-in, they could easily find themselves in the relegation zone. As part of the trip to Anfield, Van Nistelrooy will go up against Arne Slot once again. Both have…
