Arne Slot had no complaints over the penalty that Liverpool conceded against Southampton with the foul being very close to the line and the Dutchman didn’t appear too fussed about Adam Lallana avoiding a red card either — despite Roy Keane insisting the former Reds midfielder should have walked for his tackle on Ryan Gravenberch. “In general, sometimes you could have made a different decision or not,” Slot said. “But for me, with the offsides and deciding if a ball is inside or outside, that is just black and white. It was a foul, that was clear, so if they…
Before kick-off, Liverpool fans sung about winning the Premier League. By the hour mark, that was looking less likely — and then up stepped Mohamed Salah. Arne Slot has wanted to ignore any conversation about silverware so far this season but his argument that it is still early in the campaign is starting to subside. It would take a remarkable turnaround for Liverpool not to top the pile at Christmas from here — by then, the possibility will be unavoidable. “It is a great feeling but it is the beginning of the season,” Dominik Szoboszlai told the BBC, very much…
The past decade has unquestionably been a successful one for Liverpool, who have won several huge trophies in that time. Jurgen Klopp was the architect of that success and now Arne Slot has taken the reigns and is carrying on his predecessor’s legacy. For all the success that Liverpool have had since Klopp arrived in 2015, Liverpool’s owners Fenway Sports Group has always been a divisive topic among supporters. A reluctance to spend big, questionable decisions around furlough in the Covid-19 pandemic and their involvement in the proposed European super league have understandably made FSG unpopular with certain groups of…
In the midst of the summer transfer window, one Feyenoord defender attracted serious interest from both Manchester United and Liverpool. David Hancko had just impressed for Slovakia at EURO 2024 and the centre-half was a favourite under Arne Slot as he won the Eredivisie and the Dutch Cup during his time in charge at De Kuip. Similarly, United were keen to sign three centre-halves in the summer and after the signings of Matthijs De Ligt and Leny Yoro represented a significant outlay, Hancko, who can also play at left-back, was seen as a possible cut-price option. In the end, a…
Liverpool manager Arne Slot praised a “special” contribution from Mohamed Salah after his two goals helped the team recover from a goal down to beat Southampton 3-2 and move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League. The league leaders were heading for a shock defeat to the division’s bottom side when midfielder Mateus Fernandes swept Saints in front in the 56th minute, but Salah was on hand to turn the game around. First he beat goalkeeper Alex McCarthy to a through ball from Ryan Gravenberch, then 10 minutes from time blasted the ball into the top corner…
Mohamed Salah, shirt swinging above his head, knew he had done it again. Just like in 2019 when he raced towards the Liverpool fans at St Mary’s, it was the Egyptian who made the decisive contribution. It is no exaggeration to suggest that his brace could be looked back on in May as a turning point for Liverpool. If the Reds can move 11 points clear of Manchester City by beating Pep Guardiola’s men at Anfield next Sunday, it will be in part because of this result. Racing clear of Manchester City before playing Everton in December, Leicester City on…
Erling Haaland has issued a stark warning to Manchester City’s Premier League rivals, after they find themselves enduring a rare losing streak. City’s 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad on Saturday means Pep Guardiola’s side has lost five consecutive games, the worst run of Guardiola’s managerial career. As a result, Liverpool managed to go eight points clear at the top of the table after the Reds secured a 3-2 victory over Southampton on Sunday. However, despite their recent lack of form, Haaland has called for people to keep calm insisting that he and his City teammates aren’t panicking…
Mohamed Salah’s Brilliance: Liverpool Must Act Fast to Secure His Future Christ did we need him again today in this one. Mohamed Salah has once again shown why he is not only Liverpool’s talisman but also one of the most impactful players in world football. In the wake of FSG’s presence in the UK just now, it is imperative that every ounce of their focus shifts toward securing a contract extension for this Egyptian king. Salah’s consistent brilliance demands immediate action, and his latest performances only underscore the urgency. Salah’s Goal Contributions Leave Rivals in the Dust Salah has been…
Liverpool has moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table after it beat Southampton on the south coast thanks to goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Mohamed Salah. Arne Slot has now won 16 out of his first 18 matches in charge in all competitions, only dropping points in games against Nottingham Forest at Anfield and then Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. And despite Real Madrid coming to Merseyside midweek in the Champions League, the biggest fixtures of this week are in the league after Manchester City’s 4-0 home defeat to Tottenham. In the league, Liverpool has…
Jamie Carragher has faced calls to stop commentating on Liverpool games after Sky Sports viewers heard what he said in the Reds’ win over Southampton on Sunday. Arne Slot’s side came from behind to beat the Premier League’s bottom club and m-ove eight points clear of Manchester City, with Mo Salah striking twice in the second half to complete the turnaround. After Dominik Szoboszlai opened the scoring, Southampton found the net through Adam Armstrong and Mateus Fernandes but ultimately could not hold on to their lead against their league leaders. Carragher was on-commentary at St Mary’s for the clash but…
