Liverpool have learned that Pep Guardiola’s one-year contract extension at Manchester City doesn’t contain a relegation release clause. The Catalan coach penned a renewal with the Premier League champions on Tuesday – keeping him at the club until 2026. Guardiola’s previous contract was due to expire this summer, prompting ambiguity around his future amid City’s legal battle with the Premier League. The hearing for the 100-plus charges of alleged financial wrongdoing, which City deny in full, was due to conclude this month. The commission panel will now deliberate on a judgement before a verdict is announced in early 2025. From…
Arne Slot looks to already have his new side in a position where they can compete for the biggest trophies and Liverpool sit five points clear at the top of the Premier League as well as being the only team to maintain a 100% record in the UEFA Champions League. The Reds’ sensational start has seen the emergence of Ryan Gravenberch in the midfield and a resurgence for Luis Diaz and Ibrahima Konate. Despite the great form of Gravenberch and Curtis Jones, as well as solid performances from Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, the Liverpool recruitment team are looking…
Liverpool legend John Aldridge has made it clear that Caoimhin Kelleher should now keep his place in Arne Slot’s first XI over Alisson Becker. Kelleher has been filling in for the injured Alisson in recent weeks, and he’s arguably been a surprise revelation for the Reds during what they will have expected to be a difficult period. Alisson is one of the best goalkeepers in the world and not the kind of player you’d want to be without for an extended period of time, but it’s turned out that his absence has barely been felt by Liverpool. Aldridge has been…

And the Anfield legend believes the Premier League leaders would not be in top spot without the in-form Netherlands international. The Reds tried to sign Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad in the summer transfer window and looked as though they were on course to land him by triggering his £51m buyout clause. However, the Spain international had a change of heart and chose…
Mikel Arteta and Arsenal return to action this weekend knowing that there is no more margin for error when it comes to the title race. The Gunners have been plagued by injury this term and headed into the international break some nine points behind the Premier League’s early pace-setters, Liverpool, at the summit after failing to beat Chelsea. And with lots riding on their meeting with Nottingham Forest – who sit one place below Arsenal in fifth as the league’s surprise package – the last thing Arteta needed was an injury to Leandro Trossard, who limped off in Belgium’s loss…
The Houston Texans made a brutal joke at the Dallas Cowboys’ expense after the build-up to their NFL Monday Night Football clash was marred by a major stadium problem. Just hours before the players were to take to the field in the AT&T Stadium, pieces of the roof fell onto the playing field in a dangerous safety breach. Bits of debris including a large piece of metal fell as the roof was being opened in preparation for the match. Thankfully, no one was injured despite pieces falling near several people who were on the field at the time preparing the…

The win gives the 7-4 Texans a two-game cushion at the top of the AFC South, while the Cowboys fall to 3-7 after a fifth straight defeat. Joe Mixon ran for three touchdowns, the first two giving the Texans a 14-0 lead in the first quarter.

The game begins at 4:30 p.m. ET and will be streamed on Netflix, so the 32-time Grammy winner should take the stage around 6 p.m. ET.

The Baltimore Ravens have dealt with issues in the secondary for pretty much the entire season now, so understandably, they’re open to any and all options. Baltimore already brought in former All-Pro Tre’Davious White from the Los Angeles Rams at the trade deadline, and he already looks like a strong fit after just one game. Now, they’re bringing in another former All-Pro as an added gun. According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, the Ravens are signing veteran cornerback Desmond King to their practice squad. King, who turns 30 next month, was a first-team All-Pro in 2018 and spent…
The Houston Texans have hit on a ton of draft picks in recent years, and that’s a huge credit do the job done by General Manager Nick Caserio and the staff he has assembled in Houston. They hit a grand-slam on CJ Stroud and Will Anderson Jr in the 2023 NFL Draft, and that class has laid the foundation for where they are today. Well, an emerging start on the defensive side of the ball is cornerback Derek Stingley Jr, who could be having the best year of his career and who could be in line for a huge payday…
