Luis Diaz has now made himself a central-attacking option for both club and country, it would seem. The forward is in the form of his Liverpool career at the moment, returning nine goals and two assists from just 11 starts. Such a total includes a memorable second-half hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen earlier this month as the Reds thrashed Xabi Alonso’s side 4-0 at Anfield. But what made the victory even more astounding was the fact that it was the Colombian’s first ever appearance upfront since joining Liverpool. With Cody Gakpo predominantly playing in his favoured left-wing position under new head…
Manchester City has reportedly penned a letter to Liverpool and all other Premier League clubs expressing their concerns over the redrafted finance rules ahead of next week’s vote. The club has labelled the proposed changes to Associated Party Transaction rules [APTs] as ‘unlawful’. Both Man City and the Premier League claimed victory in a landmark commission ruling in October, which concluded that while APT regulation was necessary, some aspects of the framework violated EU competition law. Consequently, the Premier League has been tweaking its rules. A letter viewed by the BBC reveals that Simon Cliff, Man City’s chief lawyer, believes…

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has made Liverpool the leading contenders for the title this season. Speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, Keane said that he has regularly backed Manchester City in recent years, despite the strong challenge they have faced from Arsenal. However, this season, he feels that injuries to certain players make it more likely that another team will win – with Arne Slot’s side now in the driving seat: “I’ve never written off Manchester City over the past four or five years – even when Arsenal have been brilliant, I backed City all day. The circumstances…
Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez celebrated directly in the face of former Everton defender Yerry Mina during Uruguay’s win against Colombia on Friday evening. In a thrilling game in Montevideo, Andres Gomez thought he had snatched a point for Colombia with a goal in the sixth minute of extra time to make it 2-2. However, Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte popped up in the 11th minute of injury time with a dramatic late winner to secure a 3-2 victory for Marcelo Bielsa’s side. Nunez had clashed with Mina, who came on as a late substitute in injury time, before Uruguay’s winning…
Only four players have had the privilege of two separate playing stints with Liverpool Football Club – Ian Rush, Steve Staunton, Robbie Fowler and Craig Bellamy. Fabio Aurelio technically also falls into this category, having been released by Rafa Benitez in the summer of 2010 only to re-join under the Spaniard’s successor, Roy Hodgson, within a few months. Jay Spearing could also be included in this list, after he returned to the club as an academy player-coach in 2022, although his second spell with the Reds does not include first team responsibilities. As such, the aforementioned quartet are the only…

The forward said that the Frenchman told him that the level of focus in the game makes all the difference. He said (via talkSPORT): “He was at Melwood, and I asked him, ‘What’s the difference between a good player and…
Former Reds star fulfilled a boyhood dream when he joined Liverpool, however his time with the Reds was only brief. The one-time Netherlands international moved to Anfield on a free transfer from Bayer Leverkusen in 1999. But scoring just twice from 27 appearances, he was allowed to leave on a free transfer in December 2000 after dropping down the pecking order. Looking back, the striker knows it was the right decision to leave – even though it hurt at the time. He can admit he wasn’t quite good enough to play for Liverpool. But you can’t take it away from…
