Former Premier League referee Mike Dean labelled Andreas Pereira’s tackle on Ryan Gravenberch as “100% a red card” in the first half of Liverpool’s visit from Fulham. But it’s understood the incident was thoroughly checked by the officials at Stockley Park’s VAR centre, who agreed with the on-field call by match referee Tony Harrington at Anfield. Gravenberch went down under a challenge by former Manchester United man Pereira in the first half with the midfielder accused of raking his studs down the Achilles of the Reds star inside the first 10 minutes. Referee Harrington opted only to caution Pereira and…
Liverpool and Fulham are currently locking horns at Anfield in what has turned out to be a fiery clash in the Premier League. It’s safe to say things haven’t gone as planned for Liverpool as Andreas Pereira has given Marco Silva’s side a 1-0 lead. Things went from bad to worse for Liverpool as Andy Robertson was sent off for a rash tackle on Harry Wilson. Arne Slot’s side haven’t been anywhere close to their best, but Mike Dean feels the home side were on the wrong end of a poor refereeing decision. Mike Dean says Andreas Pereira should have…
The Premier League has released a statement confirming why Liverpool star Andy Robertson was shown a straight red card against Fulham. After bringing down ex-Liverpool star Harry Wilson, Robertson was given his marching orders in the 16th minute as the Cottagers ace capitalized on his poor ball control and honed in on the Reds’ goal. Referee Tony Harrington had no choice but to send off the 30-year-old defender. This left Liverpool the rest of the first half and the second to try and chase down Fulham, who were already leading 1-0 at Anfield. “The referee issued a red card to…
One of the best results of Liverpool’s season so far was beating Real Madrid at Anfield in the Champions League. The Reds have suffered more than most at the hands of the European champions over recent years. However, with Carlo Ancelotti’s team in poor form heading to Anfield in November, Liverpool knew they had a chance to put things right. And that’s exactly what they did, with goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo handing the Reds a dominant 2-0 win. Ancelotti admitted to changing his tactics on the back of the loss, as the legendary manager aimed to…
Liverpool fans would no doubt be delighted if Darwin Nunez could reach the same heights that Luis Suarez has in his career – sadly, it’s hard to see that happening at the moment. Patience is clearly wearing thin among some Liverpool fans with Nunez. His performance against Girona in the Champions League drew backlash from supporters on social media as he once again proved ineffective in leading the Reds’ line. The 25-year-old subsequently posted a cryptic message on Instagram which appeared to be aimed at his detractors. The facts speak for themselves though, and with just three goals in 19…
Fresh after an unconvincing win against Girona, Liverpool return to Premier League action against Fulham, hoping to get back to winning ways.

The Reds were far from their sparkling best in the 1-0 win, but they got the job done. However, they’ll need to step things up heading into Saturday’s clash against a Fulham side brimming with confidence. Predicted Liverpool XI vs Fulham Liverpool were handed a massive double injury…
Eyebrows were raised at Liverpool’s summer transfer business when Federico Chiesa was the only immediate addition to Arne Slot’s inherited squad. A £10m arrival from Juventus, the capture of the Italy international was something of an opportunistic move from the Reds at the end of August. Onlookers were left convinced that Liverpool needed to strengthen at centre-back and in midfield, with a new left-back potentially the next port of call. Yet Slot would continue to stress he was more than happy with the strength of his squad throughout the summer, before an opportunity came knocking. The Reds had looked to…
The 44-year-old was a prolific and versatile attacking midfielder during his footballing career, playing for a wealth of Premier League clubs in his prime – but Benayoun saw the most game time in his three-year stint at Anfield between 2007 and 2010. Under the legendary Rafael Benitez, the Israel international racked up 29 goals and 19 assists across 134 games, etching his name into the Premier League’s history books. However, Benayoun has recently admitted that first signing for West Ham – who he left to join Liverpool – was the best decision that he ever made in terms of football,…
Having signed from Benfica in the summer of 2022 for an initial fee of £64 million ($81m), the Uruguayan’s spell with the Reds has largely been characterized by mixed form. The 25-year-old, who remains the club’s all-time record signing, has contributed 36 goals and 19 assists in 115 outings since moving to Merseyside. Having fallen down the No. 9 pecking order during the final months of Jurgen Klopp’s tenure, the striker found himself behind Diogo Jota in Arne Slot’s thoughts during the infancy of his reign. However, an injury to the Portuguese star in late October allowed Nunez an unexpected…
