Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp seems to be excited about Stefan Bajcetic. Liverpool’s Carabao Cup final win over Chelsea saw a number of young players feature off the bench. Bobby Clark, James McConnell, Jarell Quansah and Jayden Danns all came on in a major success story for the Liverpool development ranks. There was no Stefan Bajcetic though as his difficult season continues. The 19-year-old burst onto the scene last season but an adductor issue has plagued him throughout the campaign. Bajcetic hasn’t kicked a ball in the Premier League and has only played 72 minutes of action across all competitions. This…
Just three days after winning the Carabao Cup, Liverpool are back in action, this time in the FA Cup against Southampton. Boss Jurgen Klopp is battling even more injury issues following that game, with Ryan Gravenberch ruled out. The Dutchman was the subject of an awful tackle by Moises Caicedo, leaving him with a ligament issue in his ankle. With the final having gone the full 120 minutes and a crucial Premier League clash coming up on Saturday lunchtime, Klopp is expected to ring the changes. The visit of Southampton would appear to be the perfect time to hand his…
Takumi Minamino has been hailed as the best right-back in the world, just over 18 months after Liverpool sold him to Monaco. The Japan international has found his feet again at the Stade Louis II. He is still an attacking midfielder, but against Lens in their win last weekend, the former Liverpool man played in a slightly different position. Takumi Minamino hailed as the ‘best right-back’ in the world after leaving Liverpool Takumi Minamino spent two-and-a-half years at Liverpool after joining them from RB Salzburg. The versatile attacker played 55 times for the Reds, scored 14 goals and provided three…
Philippe Coutinho says he has no regrets following his high-profile move from Liverpool to Barcelona – despite injury problems hindering his career. The former Reds playmaker made the £146million switch to the La Liga giants in 2018, where he won La Liga twice plus Spanish domestic success. Coutinho quickly established himself as a key player and a firm favourite at Anfield until his departure in 2018. The Brazilian’s exit funded moves for Virgil van Dijk and Alisson Becker for Jurgen Klopp, with his side going on to taste domestic, European and global glory in the following years. Coutinho’s move came…
The 2024 New England Patriots are all about fresh starts. New head coach. New head of personnel. A new way of operating under Jerod Mayo and Eliot Wolf after 24 years of Bill Belichick. But it might make sense to bring back a familiar face at arguably their most important position. The Athletic’s Vic Tafur recently listed nine potential destinations for veteran quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who is expected to be released by the Las Vegas Raiders after receiving a two-game suspension from the NFL for violating its performance-enhancing substances policy. Among those destinations is New England, where Garoppolo spent his…
New England Patriots director of scouting Eliot Wolf addressed if the team is in the stages of changing the culture away from what former head coach Bill Belichick has established for many years. He would say that alongside new head coach Jerod Mayo, “the answer is ultimately going to be yes” according to Andrew Callahan of The Boston Herald. “I would like to say yes, and I think the answer is ultimately going to be yes,” Wolf said to the media at the NFL Scouting Combine. “It’s easy to say the culture has changed, but there are no players here…
Patriots Director of Scouting Eliot Wolf came to the NFL Combine, he was a 10-year-old shadowing his father, Pro Football Hall of Famer Ron Wolf. Wolf was soaking in his father, Hall of Fame coach Bill Parcells, and former Raiders owner Al Davis sitting with stopwatches timing prospects as they ran the 40-yard dash. The Patriots new personnel boss said it was at his first combine in 1993 that he began laying the groundwork for his career in scouting, which has now seen him rise to a leading role in New England’s front office. Patriots director of scouting Eliot Wolf…
Southampton boss Russell Martin has sung the praises of Jurgen Klopp’s amazing achievements at Liverpool ahead of the Saints’ FA Cup fifth-round trip to Anfield. Martin will bring his team to Merseyside on Wednesday evening, just three days after Liverpool’s grand Carabao Cup win at Wembley where a late extra-time goal from Virgil van Dijk landed Klopp the seventh major trophy of his managerial tenure with the Reds. Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Martin said: “I’m going to stand in the dugout with one of the greatest managers we’ve seen in the Premier League. I think he’s been amazing…
Jürgen Klopp’s legacy was already secured when he announced that he would be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season. But the chance to go out on the major high of a potential quadruple is not one that will be passed up lightly. The Carabao Cup final victory that Liverpool achieved over the weekend against Chelsea was the first of a possible four trophies that Klopp could lift alongside Virgil van Dijk this season. Liverpool is currently top of the Premier League and among the favorites for both the FA Cup and the Europa League. But, as was discussed…
Philippe Coutinho has no regrets over his Liverpool exit, insisting he would change nothing about his decision to join Barcelona. On paper the Brazilian had a decent spell at Camp Nou, playing his part in two LaLiga title wins and earning a Copa del Rey into the bargain. He also won the Champions League while on loan at Bayern Munich from Barca, even scoring twice against his own employers in the quarter-finals. But it was broadly a damaging spell for Coutinho, who despite being just three days older than former teammate Mohamed Salah, has seen his star has fallen to…
