He also said that last Sunday’s 3-0 success was his last trip to Old Trafford for the…

Shortly after joining the Anfield club, Ojo went out on loan to Wigan Athletic and Wolverhampton Wanderers before being handed his Premier League debut by Jurgen Klopp in March 2016, during a 3-2 defeat away at Southampton. There was a lot of hype surrounding Ojo but the winger never truly lived up to those expectations. Loan spells followed at the likes of Fulham, Stade de…

While not quite as entertaining as Liverpool’s latest demolition of Manchester United on the pitch, the heated exchange between Sky Sports pundits Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville off it wasn’t a bad sideshow.

While Slot heads into the international break on the back of a perfect start to life as Liverpool head coach, the pressure is mounting on Ten Hag.

At first there was silence. Deathly, funereal silence. In Goodison Park’s poky dressing room, Everton’s players sat with heads bowed, stunned at what had transpired. With 87 minutes gone, they had looked set for a morale-boosting first victory of the season in front of a delighted, raucous crowd, leading a tepid Bournemouth by two goals to nil. In the stands, some believed this was the best performance they had seen from those in blue shirts for three or four years. What happened in the next nine minutes was the stuff of nightmares. Three goals conceded and three points surrendered thanks…
