Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City are contesting one of the most exciting Premier League title races in recent history. Mikel Arteta’s Gunners currently sit top of the table on 71 points, level with Jurgen Klopp’s Reds but with a better goal difference. Pep Guardiola’s Citizens, the reigning champions, sit third behind Arsenal and Liverpool, but they’re just one point adrift. Three teams separated by one point with seven games left is pretty much unprecedented in the Premier League, and a grandstand finish beckons. In recent weeks, pundits have been sharing their opinions on who they think will finish top of…
Liverpool might end up remembering Atalanta’s visit to Anfield as a turning point in the season for all the wrong reasons. Jürgen Klopp will not have given up hope of a comeback, but the heavy defeat has stacked the odds against the Reds in the Europa League, piling the pressure on achieving Premier League glory. However, that quest could be aided by the extremely positive news on the injury front. It was hard to get too excited about it as a third shot flashed past Caoimhín Kelleher, but the Liverpool bench against Atalanta represented a huge leap forward compared to…
Jayden Danns has been one of the standout members of Klopp’s Kids this season and he’s continuing to show why we all think so much of him. Liverpool U21s beat Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford in Premier League 2 but the Scouser stole the headlines with one special moment. Lewis Koumas, another young man who’s starred for the first-team this season, drove down the left wing and then found the striker in the box. The 18-year-old showed his strength and skill as he held two defenders off before expertly back-heeling the ball into the back of the net.
The shock of this season’s Europa League took place on Thursday when Atalanta departed Anfield after a well-deserved 3-0 win over Liverpool. The Reds were amongst the favourites to win the trophy this season, but it will take a comeback of Barcelona proportions if they want to still be in with a chance of getting their game on the cup. Jurgen Klopp didn’t hide behind any excuses as to what caused the defeat during his post-match interviews, simply giving credit to the Serie A side for being the better team and publicly outing his players for not being good enough.…
Former Liverpool midfielder Luis Alberto says he has asked Lazio to rip up his contract, stating he will search for a new club in the summer. The 31-year-old has been at the Italian club for eight years after leaving Anfield in 2016. His ill-fated three years at Anfield saw him make just 12 senior appearances, just two of them starts, amid loan spells to Malaga and Deportivo La Coruna. Alberto has recently edged past 300 appearances for Lazio and will be remembered as one of the club’s longest-serving players. However, this has not been the goodbye season he would have…
Ex-Manchester City player and manager Stuart Pearce says he is backing Arsenal, not his former club, to finish top of the table this season. Speaking to William Hill‘s No Tippy Tappy Football podcast, the 61-year-old said he was hesitant about naming Pep Guardiola’s side as favourites for the title again after their treble campaign and, with the Gunners now sitting in first, he believes the Gunners can go all the way, despite their tough fixture list: “Before the start of the season, I said that I wasn’t sure who would win the Premier League this season, but that it wouldn’t…
Liverpool are quickly having to turn their attention to domestic matters tomorrow after being thumped in Europe. The Reds are reeling this weekend having been on the end of a terrible result against Atalanta in the Europa League on Thursday night. Few had predicted anything other than a Liverpool win at Anfield. However, not only were Jurgen Klopp’s team beaten, they were walloped. 3-0 and it could have been more. Liverpool can’t be allowed to feel sorry for themselves, though. There’s a Premier League title to be won after all. This season can still turn into something special. Thankfully, they’re…
There were only 25 days between Liverpool losing 4-3 to Manchester United in the FA Cup and Jürgen Klopp’s side being beaten 3-0 at home to Atalanta in the Europa League. While it would be wrong to suggest such a result in Europe had been coming — had Harvey Elliott’s shot gone in or had Caoimhín Kelleher been able to save the opener, perhaps things could have been different — Liverpool does have a problem that it needs to solve. The Reds just keep on conceding opening goals. Including the FA Cup exit when Scott McTominay netted first in the…
Former Chelsea defender Jason Cundy reckons Liverpool’s shock 3-0 loss to Atalanta might end their dreams of winning their second Premier League title under Jurgen Klopp.Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City are the three teams competing for the title this season. The Reds are currently second with 71 points from 31 games, behind Arsenal on goal difference, while the Cityzens are third with 70 points. While the Merseysiders have had a phenomenal campaign, winning the Carabao Cup, they have hit a stumbling block recently. They crashed out of the FA Cup following a 4-3 defeat to Manchester United in the quarter-finals…
Alexis Mac Allister has been the pick of the signings that Liverpool made in the summer of 2024. Meanwhile, Dominik Szoboszlai has shown what he can become and Wataru Endō has surpassed the expectations of even those who knew what he could offer. It has been a stop-start season for Ryan Gravenberch, though. The 21-year-old Netherlands international arrived from Bayern Munich in search of more game time but the only time he has played 90 minutes for Liverpool to date was against Norwich City in the FA Cup. Aside from that, Gravenberch has started only 10 times in the Premier…
