It wasn’t quite Mo Salah and Jurgen Klopp, but Manchester City’s body language in the first half at Nottingham Forest was hardly harmonious. Pep Guardiola was more animated than usual, and was taking the time during stoppages to chastise players who were giving the ball away – whether it was Kyle Walker, Josko Gvardiol or Rodri. At one point, after Gvardiol had given City the lead, the Croatian raced into the box, missed the header completely and Forest then almost scored by targeting the space he had vacated in defence. Guardiola was livid, asking his bench what on earth Gvardiol…
Gary Neville insists it would be a mistake to write Mohamed Salah off after his recent dip in form. Salah has scored 24 times in all competitions this season but is yet to get back to his best since returning from injury. Salah started on the bench against West Ham on Saturday before entering the fray for the final 10 minutes. The Egyptian was visibly frustrated and exchanged angry words with boss Jürgen Klopp on the touchline. The Liverpool talisman then refused to speak to the waiting media as he left the London Stadium, warning: “There’s going to be a…
Arne Slot looks like being the new Liverpool manager but legendary striker Robbie Fowler has made a frank admission. The Dutch coach looks all set to be the Reds’ replacement for Jurgen Klopp and a deal could be announced in days, according to multiple reports. For Slot, taking over from Klopp is going to be one of the biggest jobs in world football and a huge challenge. Success with Feyenoord is one thing but doing it at Liverpool, and following the German’s act, is going to take some doing. Indeed, not everyone expected Slot to be the man Liverpool plumped…
Arne Slot is set to become the new Liverpool boss at the end of the season. Feyenoord boss Arne Slot wants to bring Palmeiras midfielder Luis Guilherme to Anfield as his first signing as Liverpool manager, according to reports. The Reds had been linked with moves for Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso and Sporting Lisbon’s Ruben Amorim but eventually settled on making Slot their new manager. ‘Arne Slot has agreed on his salary and backroom staff’ Fabrizio Romano revealed yesterday that slot to Liverpool was ‘here we go’ as the Reds finally end their search for Jurgen Klopp’s replacement with Slot…
Former Aston Villa midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker has weighed in with suggestions for potential replacements for Darwin Nunez at Liverpool. With Nunez’s tenure at Anfield marked by inconsistency, Reo-Coker has proposed a swap deal involving Nigerian forwards Victor Osimhen and Boniface. Nunez, acquired by Liverpool from Benfica in a high-profile €85 million deal in 2022, has failed to fully deliver on expectations, tallying 33 goals in 93 appearances across various competitions. Despite ranking as Liverpool’s Premier League’s second-highest scorer this season with 11 goals, criticism has mounted over his profligacy in front of goal, notably highlighted by his 26 missed “big…
Liverpool are out of the title race but watching Arsenal succeed in the first-half against Tottenham thanks to an incident that we saw Diogo Jota sent off for, is very frustrating. Before the Gunners scored their first goal of the day, Dejan Kulusevski was brought down in the box but the incident was not adjudged to be a penalty for the hosts. When we compare this with the incident that saw our No.20 dismissed in the same stadium, it’s hard to see how one moment was seen as a yellow card and the other not enough for a penalty. We…
After West Ham drew 2-2 against Liverpool, Hammers boss David Moyes had some nice words for the Reds’ departing manager Jurgen Klopp, but couldn’t resist a jocular dig. Klopp and Moyes have faced off 14 times across the last eight years, with the Liverpool manager winning 11 of those matches and losing just one. Sunday’s 2-2 at the London Stadium will likely have been the last time they encounter each other on the sidelines, and there was a clear show of mutual respect on display. After the match, Moyes joked: “I’ll be glad he’s gone; he’s too big, his teeth…
Liverpool’s Premier League title hopes are now hanging by a thread after their 2-2 draw at West Ham United. Even the most ardent of fans know that this is over, it’s just a case of waiting for that time to come because Manchester City and Arsenal aren’t dropping the points needed. Everyone will be talking about the Mohamed Salah and Jurgen Klopp fall out, even if Liverpool had won at the London Stadium, it still would have been a major talking point. But whilst that dominates the headlines for the wrong reasons, the actual performance from the team was very…
Dutch footballer Mark Diemers has worked under both Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag and his soon-to-be-Liverpool counterpart Arne Slot. His assessment of the pair will be eye-opening for Liverpool fans, who are faced with having to put their faith in a head coach who has no experience outside of the Netherlands. Liverpool and Feyenoord have agreed on a £9.4million compensation fee which paves the way for Slot to take over from Jurgen Klopp at the end of the season. The appointment is a bold move from the Anfield hierarchy given the 45-year-old has never managed in a top European league. But Diemers’ first-hand verdict on working with Slot bodes well for the…
Liverpool have suffered another huge blow in their hopes of winning the Premier League title after drawing 2-2 at West Ham on Saturday. The Reds were hoping to bounce back immediately in Saturday’s early kick-off after their dismal 2-0 loss to Everton in midweek. However, things didn’t go well in the first half at the London Stadium as Jarrod Bowen broke the deadlock in the 43rd minute. Liverpool did improve after the break and initially turned the game around, with Andrew Robertson and a Tomas Soucek own goal putting them in front. The Reds couldn’t hang on though. Michail Antonio…
