Bernardo Silva was asked to compare the rivalry between Manchester City and Liverpool to the newer feud with Arsenal after the two sides drew 2-2 on Sunday. The Manchester City midfielder explained the difference in the competitive landscape between the two clubs, using Liverpool’s recent success to aim a pointed jibe at Arsenal. He was left furious with the Gunners after the game, which was embroiled in controversy and clashes. “There was only one team that came to play football,” Silva blasted. “The other came to play to the limits of what was possible to do and allowed by the…
Everton are pursuing contract talks with striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, in the hopes they can stop the Englishman from leaving the club for nothing, TEAMtalk can confirm. Everton have had a tough start to the season but are still working behind the scenes to build for the future under new ownership and for life in a new stadium. They are also keen to build a side who are capable for challenging for European spots in the future and that will mean tying down some of their stars who are close to the end of their deals. One of those is striker…
Former Chelsea boss Graham Potter is reportedly ‘very interested’ in returning to the Premier League with Everton, which could come to fruition if Sean Dyche is sacked. Everton have made a woeful start to the Premier League season. After five games, they’re 19th in the table, having only gained one point – in their last game – following losses in each of the opening four matches. As a result, pressure is mounting on Dyche, with reports of his impending sack snowballing. If that is to happen, big-name boss Potter could take over from his compatriot. Indeed, Football Insider reports the…
Carlos Alcaraz hit out at the tennis calendar on Saturday, claiming the schedule is “going to kill us”. The 21-year-old French Open and Wimbledon champion is currently taking part in the Laver Cup, his 14th tournament of the year. Before arriving in Berlin the Spanish star had already played 50 singles matches in 2024, winning three titles and also collecting a silver medal at the Paris Olympics. “Probably they are going to kill us in some way,” Alcaraz said Saturday after defeating Ben Shelton in straight sets at the Laver Cup. Alcaraz said that players had different opinions on the…
Diogo Jota hasn’t enjoyed a fantastic start to this new Premier League season, with only one goal and one assist coming his way from Liverpool’s opening four league fixtures. The former Wolverhampton Wanderers forward would also frustrate those with a Reds persuasion in the Champions League recently, as the misfiring Portuguese attacker could only muster 23 touches of the ball against AC Milan, with his teammates all thankfully singing off the same hymn sheet otherwise in an exciting 3-1 away. The goal-shy nature of Jota’s early season performances means even one notable former Reds dud is currently outperforming him, despite…
Carlos Alcaraz beat Taylor Fritz 6-2 7-5 to hand Team Europe a 13-11 victory over Team World in the Laver Cup in the last session of the tournament on Sunday. Four-time Grand Slam champion Alcaraz romped through a one-sided first set before finishing off U.S. Open finalist Fritz as Team Europe clinched their fifth Laver Cup title. “It’s been great. Obviously, we came here as a group, all of us to win the Laver Cup. I’m pretty happy. I think everybody, for us, is,” said Alcaraz. “I mean, it’s been a really tough one… we almost lost.” However, captain Bjorn…
Liverpool fans will hope Darwin Nunez goes on a devastating run of form now, having broken his goalscoring duck for the 2024/25 Premier League season last time out against AFC Bournemouth. This was the Uruguayan attacker’s first start in the league under the new Arne Slot regime, and he repaid his manager’s faith with a strike in the one-sided contest, as the Reds swept the Cherries aside 3-0. Liverpool forward Darwin Nunez-1 Under the previous stewardship of Jurgen Klopp, Nunez hadn’t exactly sparked into life and shown himself to be a consistent finisher of chances though, with a satisfactory but…
Darwin Nunez is one of the most important Liverpool players and could become their record signing, so here is everything you need to know about the Uruguayan forward. The attacker arrived on Merseyside from SL Benfica in June 2022 as Jurgen Klopp bid to get a prolific striker. Nunez had put clubs on alert over the previous season with 34 goals in only 41 appearances. He also scored home and away against Liverpool in the Champions League. Nunez fired six of his goals that term in UEFA’s elite club competition, including twice against Liverpool in the quarter-finals. So, the Anfield…
Liverpool manager Arne Slot should be confident of being able to compete on all fronts this season thanks to his talented squad. Federico Chiesa was the only summer arrival at Liverpool, but Jurgen Klopp did leave Slot with plenty to work with at Anfield. The Dutchman is seemingly even getting the best out of players that didn’t exactly shine under the German, even in these early stages. Caoimhin Kelleher has been impressed by Ryan Gravenberch, while Ibrahima Konate is shining for Liverpool, with the midfielder and defender having often been overlooked by Klopp. A big and talented squad is needed…
Liverpool produced an unstoppable first half display against Bournemouth to secure another important win for Arne Slot. Federico Chiesa made his Premier League debut, with the Italian appearing as a second-half substitute at Anfield. By that stage the damage had already been done by the Liverpool attack, with Luis Diaz scoring a brace and Darwin Nunez scoring the other. Anfield icon Luis Suarez loved Nunez’s goal against Bournemouth, with the latter netting a superb strike on his first start under Slot. Defenders Ibrahima Konate and Trent Alexander-Arnold supplied the assists for Diaz, with Mohamed Salah then setting up Nunez. The…
