You could forgive football fans for wondering if they’d been transported over 11 years into the past after Liverpool loanee Owen Beck was on the receiving end of a bite yesterday.

The Montenegrin star’s actions will have…

Jamie Carragher has made his fresh Premier League title prediction after watching Man City and Arsenal play out a thrilling 2-2 draw on Sunday. A stunning long-range strike from Riccardo Calafiori cancelled out Erling Haaland’s early finish before Gabriel Magalhaes put Arsenal 2-1 up heading into the break. There was still time before the half-time whistle for Leandro Trossard to be sent off with Mikel Arteta’s side forced to play the full second half with ten men.

He celebrated his first start of the season in style, bagging his first goal of the campaign with a beautifully-taken left-footed effort from outside of the penalty area. The Anfield fan favorite was applauded by the adoring Kop, and his emotion was…
Liverpool’s Calum Scanlon has suffered another injury setback and now faces several months out. The 19-year-old went to Millwall on loan at the end of the transfer window but is already back on Merseyside to receive treatment for a back fracture. Scanlon is seen as one of the academy’s best prospects and made two Europa League appearances last season. However, the second half of his campaign was blighted by a recurring back injury that is now set to keep him out for months. It appears to be an issue that’s similar to the one fellow full backs Conor Bradley and…

Liverpool are reportedly one of the clubs showing an interest in the potential transfer of Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres at the moment, amid some doubts over Darwin Nunez’s long-term career at Anfield. Gyokeres has been in superb form at the start of this season, following on from an impressive debut campaign at Sporting as well, and it seems inevitable that he’s going to earn himself a big move before too long. As CaughtOffside recently reported, Chelsea are one of Gyokeres’ admirers, though they still have other names like Victor Osimhen on their list of targets as well, so the…
