The moment every Liverpool fan has been dreading for months is set to arrive on Sunday 19 May, with Jurgen Klopp taking charge of his final ever game with the Reds. The German announced he was going to leave Liverpool in late January, a decision that still hasn’t quite sunk in among the club’s supporters. Arne Slot will have the unenviable task of filling the void left by the 56-year-old, who has just two matches in the Liverpool hot seat before his time with the Reds comes to an emotional conclusion. First up is a trip to Aston Villa next…
Liverpool have been told to offer Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold new deals before welcoming any new faces to Anfield this summer. The pair were instrumental in the Reds’ recent victory over Tottenham, with the Egypt international opening the scoring just a quarter of an hour into the game. Salah’s current contract is set to expire next year and although Liverpool turned down a hefty £150million offer from Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittihad last summer, his mixed performance this season has sparked speculation about his future – especially with Jurgen Klopp’s impending departure at the end of the season. Interest…
Son Heung-min’s 77th-minute goal led to some frayed nerves at Anfield on Sunday as Tottenham reduced the deficit on Liverpool from four to two in the space of just five minutes, but thankfully there was no further damage done to the Reds thereafter. The South Korea forward now has seven goals in 16 appearances against Jurgen Klopp’s side, netting in each of his last five (Transfermarkt), and the departing LFC manager is on record as stating that failing to sign the now 31-year-old during his time in charge of Borussia Dortmund was a grievous error (The Mirror). In that context,…
Liverpool voted in favour of new anchoring regulations as it will weaken both Manchester United and Manchester City more than them. That is the view of finance expert Kieran Maguire, who exclusively told Football Insider that he was initially surprised by the stance taken by Liverpool in the latest Premier League vote. Top flight clubs met last Monday (29 April) to discuss new financial regulations which will cap spending to a multiple of the lowest earnings in the division. Only three clubs – Aston Villa, Manchester United and Manchester City – voted against the proposal meaning the rules will now be introduced…
There’s never a dull moment with Darwin Núñez. Even when he’s not on the pitch, he has managed to grab the headlines. The Uruguay international is the talk among Liverpool fans today after he seemingly deleted nearly all traces of the Reds from his Instagram account. Only one picture remains of him at the club’s training ground, although his bio still includes Liverpool, while his profile picture shows him in action for the Reds. The drastic measure comes amid questions over his future at Anfield. Núñez is without a goal in his last eight games, and he has found himself…
Darwin Nunez’s chaotic spell with Liverpool could end in the summer, with the striker dropping the biggest hint yet that he could leave the Anfield club amid rumours that Barcelona are targeting the Uruguay international as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski. Nunez was left out of the starting XI for Liverpool’s 4-2 victory over Tottenham on Sunday, with Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz preferred in attack alongside Mohamed Salah. This came in the wake of reports that Barca are eyeing up a dramatic summer swoop for the 24-year-old, who joined the Reds in 2022 from Benfica for a club-record fee…
In last night’s episode of Anfield Index’s Post-Match RAW, fan media stalwarts Trev Downey, Dave Hendrick and Mo Chatra dissected Liverpool’s compelling 4-2 victory over Tottenham at Anfield. This win underscored a return to the familiar and spectacular aspects of Liverpool’s gameplay, as they continue to make their mark in the Premier League. Dave Hendrick highlighted the tactical brilliance Liverpool displayed, remarking on the effective use of players in their natural positions. “It was nice to see us look like a functioning football team with Trent [Alexander-Arnold] at right back… what a unique and crazy idea to have the best…
Just about everyone associated with Liverpool wants Jurgen Klopp to end his reign with another Premier League title – except one former star. Or at least Ryan Babel wouldn’t be that miffed if Arsenal ended up pipping the Reds to the post come the end of this season. The Gunners lead Manchester City at the Premier League by one point but have played a game more than Pep Guardiola’s men, while Liverpool are almost certainly out of the conversation sat five points off the pace. Babel, 37, arrived at Anfield in 2007 and spent four years on Merseyside, failing to…
If the pressure is off for the final few weeks of Jurgen Klopp’s time at Liverpool, then so too is the handbrake it seems. And if that allows the Reds to play with the kind of verve that saw them go 4-0 up against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday afternoon, then it might also be why a chaotic final 20 minutes or so threatened to see their visitors incredibly emerge with something from the game too. As it turned out, the hosts were able to take maximum points that their efforts for the first 70 minutes or so thoroughly…
Darwin Nunez has deleted all recent Liverpool posts from his Instagram account. His social media activity has thrown his future with the Reds even further into doubt after inconsistent performances in front of goal. Liverpool may look to sign a new elite striker to bolster their title ambitions if Nunez is moved on in the summer. Darwin Nunez’s latest social media activity suggests it could be time for the Uruguayan forward and Liverpool to part ways at the end of the season. The striker has had an up-and-down time at Anfield since joining from Benfica in 2022, and it looks…
