Liverpool have one player who is outperforming the very best attackers in the Premier League, including Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland. The goals have flown in this season for Jurgen Klopp’s side as their summer signings have been conclusively far better in front of goal while their attacking front five have all scored a minimum of 10 goals in all competitions. It’s a huge reason why Liverpool won the EFL Cup and were in contention for all four competitions until March. While Salah is their top scorer in all competition with 24, there’s been great performances all round in attack,…
Liverpool’s face another tricky test in their title challenge this Wednesday evening when the Reds face Everton in the Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. Jurgen Klopp’s side have surrendered their lead at the top of the table in recent weeks after some costly slip-ups, but they recovered with a much-needed 3-1 victory against Fulham on Sunday. While not at their blistering best, a much-changed Liverpool XI picked up a crucial three points, lifting them to second in the table with five games to play. The Reds still have some immensely challenging fixtures to come and the run-in continues with a…
Jamie Carragher reckons that Roberto De Zerbi ‘must be the favourite’ to now land the Liverpool manager’s job. It is reported that the Reds are unlikely to appoint Ruben Amorim as Jurgen Klopp’s successor in the Anfield hot seat at the end of the season. Amorim had been regarded as the frontrunner after Xabi Alonso committed his future to Bayer Leverkusen – but The Athletic suggests the 39-year-old is not Liverpool’s preferred choice and Premier League rivals W
Gary Neville claims Liverpool must “keep Manchester City honest” in the Premier League title race if they want to avoid having regrets at the end of the season. The Reds moved back above the reigning champions with a 3-1 victory over Fulham on Sunday, brining a run of two Premier League matches without a win to an end. However, Man City now have a game in hand on Jurgen Klopp’s side, while Arsenal are still ahead of them in the table on goal difference after their 2-0 win over Wolves on Saturday. The title race is firmly out of Liverpool’s…
Former Liverpool defender Steve Nicol was left unimpressed by Liverpool’s victory over Fulham on Sunday, insisting that the Reds still don’t look like a title-winning team. Goals from Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota got Liverpool back to winning ways in the Premier League at Craven Cottage, a result that moves Jurgen Klopp’s side to second in the table for the time being. While not Liverpool’s greatest display of the season, it was a hugely important victory for a team low on confidence, especially given the changes Klopp made to the starting lineup. The majority of the club’s supporters…
Jurgen Klopp has suggested that Manchester City will not “care” about something at this moment in time. Trent Alexander-Arnold claimed that in his eyes, City look likely to seal the Premier League title now. However, Liverpool piled on the pressure on Pep Guardiola’s men in the league title now on Sunday with a 3-1 win against Fulham. Facing Marco Silva’s side at Craven Cottage can prove to be a tricky fixture. But Timothy Castagne’s equaliser to cancel Trent Alexander-Arnold’s free-kick out did not faze Liverpool, with Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota rounding off a crucial win for them. With Jurgen…
Jurgen Klopp has revealed how Liverpool’s analytics department played a vital role in the Reds’ 3-1 victory over Fulham. Trent-Alexander Arnold opened the scoring for Liverpool with a stunning 25-yard free-kick moments after Harvey Elliott had sent a low set-piece into the wall. And speaking after the final whistle, Klopp revealed that the club’s analytics team had spotted that the Reds could potentially benefit from shooting under a wall from a free-kick scenario. And while it didn’t work out for Elliott, the Liverpool boss believes such a strike contributed to Alexander-Arnold being able to find the top corner soon after.…
Liverpool climbed above Manchester City in the Premier League with a comfortable win at Fulham table as Pep Guardiola’s side dealt with FA Cup duties on the weekend – another twist in the title race. It came after a dismal fortnight for Jurgen Klopp’s side in which they suffered a 3-0 defeat to Atalanta at Anfield in the Europa League. That was followed by a shock 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace last weekend. Liverpool have had their injury issues and that hasn’t helped. Nevertheless, some poor performances have affected The Reds. Some rest bite on Thursday, a 1-0 win in…
Jurgen Klopp has given his thoughts on which team will come out on top when they play each other: Manchester City or Tottenham Hotspur. City’s game against Ange Postecoglou’s side was set to take place this past weekend. However, unlike Tottenham, Pep Guardiola’s men were in the semi-finals of the FA Cup, where they beat Chelsea 1-0, which is why the game was rearranged. Now, the game is set to be a late-night kick-off and that too on a Tuesday. The Sky Blues will travel to North London to go head-to-head against the Lilywhites at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. This…
During Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Fulham on Sunday, one new statistic emerged, placing one of the Reds’ rising stars in elite company. As pointed out by Michael Reid on X (formerly known as Twitter), midfielder Harvey Elliott’s assist for Ryan Gravenberch to score the side’s second was his seventh in all competitions since the start of February. This, he points out, puts the 21-year-old in the same company as one of football’s most renowned playmakers, Manchester City maestro Kevin De Bruyne. Out of all Premier League players, only the Belgian has laid on more assists in all competitions during this…
