Luis Diaz has exploded into form right at the start of the season for Liverpool, scoring three goals and adding another assist in his first three Premier League games of the campaign. The Colombia winger netted twice in the weekend win against Manchester United at Old Trafford following his goal against Brentford the week before. It’s been a stunning beginning for the 27-year-old under Arne Slot with the former Porto winger making the left-sided position in attack his own following months of transfer speculation. Liverpool had been linked with top quality stars such as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Nico Williams and Anthony…
Arne Slot will soon take charge of the Reds for the first time in Europe having got the Premier League season off to a very promising start. There’s little need for the Dutchman to rock the boat as he looks to win success in his debut term at Anfield. There is little reason for the former Feyenoord boss to spring a surprise, but there are some names that are conspicuous in their absence. Conor Bradley, Jarell Quansah and Harvey Elliott have not been named on the Red’s A-list. It is nothing to worry about however. Liverpool have already qualified the…
Liverpool ran out 3-0 winners after Luis Diaz netted two first-half goals with Mo Salah adding the Reds’ third after 56 minutes. And for Casemiro, last weekend’s game is one he won’t want to be reminded of anytime soon. The Brazilian started alongside Kobbie Mainoo at the base of Erik Ten Hag’s midfield, and was at fault for Liverpool’s first two goals… Or was he? Casemiro unfairly blamed for Liverpool’s two goals against Man United? Caught on the ball and losing possession, the former Real Madrid star handed possession to Liverpool on two occasions, both of which aided the build-ups…
Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch has opened up on his new-found form under new manager Arne Slot. The Dutchman has enjoyed himself under his compatriot this season following a mixed debut season at Anfield. Gravenberch joined Liverpool last summer in a £34.2 million deal from Bayern Munich after failing to excel at the Allianz Arena. He played a bit-part role for the Reds last season, playing 1,848 minutes of football across competitions. However, the Dutch midfielder has seen his fortunes change with the arrival of Arne Slot in the summer. He has played every minute for the Merseyside giants this campaign…
Ruud van Nistelrooy showed nothing but pure class to one Manchester United star during Liverpool’s crushing 3-0 Premier League win at Old Trafford on Sunday. The 48-year-old former Manchester United striker made his sensational return to Old Trafford in the summer as part of Erik ten Hag’s coaching staff. Erik ten Hag saw a major shake-up to his United coaching staff, with Ruud van Nistelrooy and Rene Hake becoming his assistant managers at the Red Devils. Van Nistelrooy spent the entirety of the 2023-24 campaign out of management after he left PSV Eindhoven before the end of the 2022-23 season.…
Speaking after Arne Slot‘s side won 3-0 against his former club Manchester United on Sunday evening, Scholes said he has already seen enough from the Reds to believe they are genuine contenders: “There’s a real dominance about this Liverpool squad. They could really challenge for that title this year. Three games in.” “Before a ball had been kicked I thought Arsenal might be there to give City a real go and possibly go on to win it. But after watching the first three games, I think Liverpool could go past Arsenal.” It was a statement win from Liverpool The xG…
Former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has offered his take on the controversial red card Declan Rice picked up against Brighton. The Gunners had been put in front by Kai Havertz in the first half before Rice was shown a second yellow card for delaying the restart after fouling Joel Veltman. The 25-year-old picked up his first caution for a late lunge on the same player and he was then given his marching orders for kicking the ball away as the Seagulls attempted to take a free kick. As a result of his sending off, Rice will be suspended for…
Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool future has been the talk of the town in recent months as he edges closer to winding down his contract. The Egyptian’s current deal expires next summer and as things stand, he is set to leave on a free transfer in the summer of 2025. Salah revealed Liverpool are yet to approach him over a new contract after their 3-0 win against Manchester United and his comments generated a lot of reactions from the wider public. David Ornstein had his say on the matter as he confirmed that Salah’s future lies in the hands of Richard Hughes,…
Arsenal enjoyed a very busy transfer deadline day last Friday with the main piece of business being the addition of 29-year-old Raheem Sterling from Chelsea. Mikel Arteta was notably in the market for a new winger all summer to provide competition for Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli. It went down to the very last hour but the Arsenal manager finally got his man after being reunited with Sterling. The pair worked together during their time at Manchester City. The English international moves to North London on a straight loan, with no option/obligation to buy. It’s well known Raheem Sterling wasn’t…
The international break is unfortunately here but for some Liverpool players, it presents the perfect opportunity to stake a claim for a place in Arne Slot’s side. Nineteen of the Dutchman’s first-team members have been called away over the next fortnight to represent their countries, with Nations League fixtures, Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and World Cup qualifiers taking center stage. However, a handful of Liverpool’s players will remain on Merseyside after not being selected to play for their countries, meaning they can hone their skills and work on certain aspects of their game while those ahead in the pecking…
