He’s adored on Merseyside yet there is still the nagging issue over what he would have won without being unfortunate enough to manage in the same era as Manchester City’s King Pep. Guardiola’s City are on…

A former Liverpool midfielder has angered chiefs at his new club after refusing to travel with his team-mates. Jurgen Klopp signed the player in question back in 2018 but he left last year after an underwhelming spell at Anfield.

Paul Merson has now claimed that Liverpool have the same problem as Arsenal following their defeat against Crystal Palace today.

The likes of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota simply couldn’t put away any of their chances that they would finish with ease on another day. And as a result, Liverpool failed to take their place at the top of the table, falling to Oliver Glasner’s second win since becoming Palace boss. And whilst this defeat has severe consequences…
