Time is running out for Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez to turn his career around at Anfield. Back in 2022, the Reds forked out a whopping $109m (£85m/€100m) for Nunez to bring the Uruguayan in from Benfica, in a move that was seen as a counter to Manchester City’s signing of Erling Haaland. However, City’s signing has proved to be much more successful than Liverpool’s. On Tuesday, Nunez produced another frustrating outing against Girona, getting in the right positions but fluffing his lines – something which has become all too familiar a sight. On his day, the 25-year-old is unplayable, as…

One who will definitely be involved is goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who was back after more than two months out with a hamstring tear to help the Reds earn a 1-0 Champions League win in Girona on Tuesday evening. Diogo Jota wasn’t in the travelling party to Spain but, after taking part in full training the day…
While the Liverpool midfielder might not have predicted he’d be enjoying a winter break in the Swiss Alps before Christmas, that is what he was granted. It’s one that made sense, too. A suspension in the Champions League for accruing three yellow cards was served during the 1-0 win Girona earlier this week. And with the Merseyside derby against Everton postponed last weekend, Mac Allister’s Premier League one-game ban for five bookings carries over to the visit of Fulham on Saturday. Given that Mac Allister will go 14 days without a match – he is next eligible to face Southampton…

Liverpool are flying this season. Arne Slot’s side have been the best side in the Premier League, sitting top of the table 15 games into his first campaign in charge at Anfield.
