Liverpool players once again endured a very mixed day of international football on Friday.

On-loan Giorgi Mamardashvili was also in action for Georgia, with his team falling to a 1-0 defeat against Ukraine. But while Darwin Nunez also lost against Peru for Uruguay, the worst moment of the day’s action…
The number 7 in football has traditionally been reserved for wingers, though this has been diversified, particularly in recent years.

Luis Diaz appears to have been revitalised as a player in the early days of new Liverpool boss Arne Slot’s tenure at Anfield. The number 7 is fabled within the game of football.

Mo Salah is enjoying a fine start to the season even if he is not getting all the credit he deserves. Seven goals and five assists in Liverpool’s opening ten games in all competitions really is ridiculous when you think about it, but at this point it is expected of the Egyptian. The main story following him around is his contract expiring at the end of the season, and there is still no real word about him extending it at the club. A lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia is the main reported other outlet and Reds fear that will be…
Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are keeping tabs on the Borussia Dortmund attacker Jamie Bynoe-Gittens. The 20-year-old has attracted the attention of the three Premier League clubs with his performances this season. As per BILD, all three clubs have been scouting him. He has picked up four goals and two assists in all competitions already, and the left-sided winger could prove to be a useful acquisition for all three Premier League clubs. Chelsea could certainly use more quality and depth in the wide areas, especially with the way Noni Madueke and Mykhailo Mudryk have performed since joining the club. Chelsea…
Fresh reports have suggested that Liverpool could look to a current Premier League star as a long-term successor to Mo Salah at Anfield. The Egyptian is now into the final nine months of his contract with the Reds, and it was reported this week that ambitious new MLS club San Diego FC could splurge to make him a marquee signing. If the 32-year-old is to depart Merseyside at the end of this season, LFC chiefs might seek to raid a top-flight rival for his replacement.

Rodney Marsh, who turns 80 on Friday, once recalled who one Manchester City and Liverpool clash turned so violent it all spilled out into the car park after the game. Liverpool and Manchester City have battled for silverware repeatedly over the last few seasons. However, as the rivals went toe-to-toe for Premier League glory, rarely did the clash descend into utter chaos – unlike one specific game in the 1970s. City legend Rodney Marsh, who turned 80 on Friday (October 11), was there that day, and he once recalled how the violence even spilled into the car park. The forward…
Virgil van Dijk received his first red card for the Netherlands during their 1-1 Nations League draw with Hungary – who also had a familiar face in their ranks. Virgil van Dijk’s first red card for the Netherlands might just offer up the perfect outcome for Liverpool before their testing run of Premier League fixtures after October’s international break. The Liverpool captain was sent-off during the 1-1 Nations League draw with Hungary on Friday night. He received two yellow cards in three minutes in the second half. The first was for protesting – as Donyell Malen surged towards goal -…
Virgil Van Dijk was sent off during the Netherlands’ clash with Hungary – but Liverpool fans appeared to rejoice. During the UEFA Nations League clash, the Netherlands slipped behind against Hungary when Roland Sallai opened the scoring just after half an hour. The Dutch side was dominant but struggled to unlock their stubborn opponents when Van Dijk was dismissed. The center-back was shown a yellow card in the 76th minute but was beaten to a through ball by Kevin Csoboth. The forward knocked the ball forward as Van Dijk clipped his legs, taking out Csoboth and leaving the referee no…
Jurgen Klopp’s decision to pitch up with the Red Bull group caught the attention this week. And, when there is an international break void that needs to be filled with content and column inches, the legendary Liverpool boss has been firmly in the firing line as a result. “Dead to me” screeched one apparently irate Borussia Dortmund fan on a post from one prominent Reds-related social media account , while back in Germany, the 2020 Premier League winner was, somewhat unfairly, labelled as being “as fake as his teeth”. Fans of Liverpool’s rivals, meanwhile, viewed this apparent defection as the…
