Dietmar “Didi” Hamann has backed Liverpool to beat Chelsea on Sunday (October 20) in the Premier League. The former player believes that the Blues are improving but the Reds will emerge victorious at Anfield. Speaking to Wettbasis (via DAZN), Hamann said Chelsea are using their squad well and gradually getting into shape. However, the 51-year-old believes Liverpool will be able to get past the Blues. “We will have to wait and see with Chelsea. They have a very, very large squad. They seem to have managed to slowly get a shallow plant to grow, but it is still very early…
The Reds are going to be in the market soon to sign a new left-back as Robertson is reaching the end of his career at Anfield. The Scotland international defender has been a fine servant for the Merseyside club and his contribution is underrated in their success in the Premier League and the Champions League. Arne Slot might have to address the left-back issue soon and with Kostas Tsimikas failing to impress whenever he has been given the opportunity to play, the Reds would look towards signing Wolves defender Ait-Nouri. Gorst has claimed that Liverpool might be looking at the…
Conor Bradley has had quite the week. Having captained Northern Ireland proudly for the first time a few days earlier, the Liverpool youngster wore the armband on home soil as his country thumped Bulgaria 5-0 in their UEFA Nations League match on Sunday. It continued a 2024 of progress for the right-back, who finally became a first-team squad regular with the Reds during the early months of the year, won his first major silverware for the club and has already become an integral option for new Liverpool head coach Arne Slot. But when Bradley was urged to take a loan…
Kyle Walker has lost his crown as the fastest player in the Premier League to a major rival. The Manchester City and England star has long been touted as the speediest star in the top-flight of English football. Indeed, he boasted the highest top speed as recently as the 2022/23 season. Walker clocked up an eye-watering 37.31 km/h during that campaign as City claimed the Premier League title. That put him by far and away the quickest player in the league – former Nottingham Forest star Brennan Johnson was second at 36.70 km/h. Unfortunately for Walker, the right-back has been…
The 2021 US Open winner has not played since the Korea Open WTA 250 event last month, where she sprained ligaments in her foot. Raducanu earned wins over Peyton Stearns and Yuan Yue in Seoul before she was forced to retire after the first set of her quarter-final match with Daria Kasatkina due to the injury. The world No 54, who initially had planned a packed schedule for the Asian swing, has been forced to miss four tournaments in China. The 21-year-old Brit withdrew from the China Open and the Wuhan Open, two WTA 1000 events where she was set…
The Toffees have had a difficult campaign so far which has seen them secure just one Premier League win but have gone unbeaten in their last three matches. Sean Dyche has opted to utilise a similar squad each week which has made chances harder to come by for certain fringe players. The summer signing has had a tough time since signing for the Toffees with Dyche seemingly concerned about trusting him to start games. This is bizarre given that the Republic of Ireland international joined the club in January from Lyon in the most recent window for £17million [Sky Sports].…
Nottingham Forest have often been dissatisfied with referees’ and VAR’s decisions this season, and Howard Webb is about to rustle a few feathers with his opinion on one incident. Nuno Espirito Santo and Nottingham Forest have become accustomed to FA charges in recent times, with Evangelos Marinakis even picking one up for his Brighton reaction. The latest decision from the FA was over a social media post made by Forest and aimed at Stuart Attwell. VAR decisions haven’t helped the mood around officials at the City Ground. Murillo was adjudged to have made a foul in the Fulham game, and…
For instance, Liverpool have Alisson Becker- one of the best goalkeepers in the world – in between the sticks, and one of the best deputies in the Premier League in Caoimhin Kelleher. Meanwhile, Arne Slot has Federico Chiesa, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo who he can call upon in attack in lieu of Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz. Right-back is another somewhat tricky position for the Liverpool boss, who has Trent Alexander-Arnold as first-choice and Conor Bradley waiting in the wings. Bradley has certainly had a 2024 to remember. He finally became a first-team regular at the start…
Mikel Merino gained some much-needed playing time for Spain during the recent international break, and the midfielder is now ready to start games for Arsenal. His debut for the Gunners was delayed after he suffered an injury in his first training session, sidelining him for several weeks. However, Merino has since made brief appearances in Arsenal’s last two matches against PSG and Southampton, which was enough to earn him a recall to the Spanish national team. The midfielder is now eager to start in the upcoming game against Bournemouth. Thomas Partey, meanwhile, is in top form and fitter than ever,…
The international break is over and the real business begins again for Liverpool this weekend. Arne Slot will be aiming to keep his side top of the Premier League table when they face Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday. The new Liverpool head coach has won six out of his seven Premier League games in charge of the Reds, leaving them a point clear of Man City and Arsenal at the summit. But Chelsea will be a tough test, with Enzo Maresca’s side also enjoying a good start to the season under new management. The Londoners sit fourth in the table…
