Paul Merson described the managerial role at Liverpool as ‘one of the biggest jobs in football’ and admitted he was ‘shocked’ by Xabi Alonso’s decision to stay at Bayer Leverkusen. He may regret it later for taking such a recless decision not minding his future. It is good opportunity for him to take over a great club and continue where Jurgen Klopp stop but he rather turned it down and choose to remain at his current club. It’s a very risky decision as Liverpool can’t continue to wait for him and the manager position to be vancant so this is…
Liverpool may appoint Roberto De Zerbi after missing out on Xabi Alonso, a potential gut punch for fans. De Zerbi’s record compared to Klopp’s shows a difference in experience and performance in the Premier League. Considering Ruben Amorim as Klopp’s replacement could also be a risky move due to his lack of experience and tactical differences. Liverpool are reportedly interested in appointing Brighton & Hove Albion manager Roberto De Zerbi after being dealt a blow in their pursuit of Xabi Alonso, and journalist Matt Thielen believes that going from Jurgen Klopp to the Italian coach would be a ‘gut punch’.…
Jamie Carragher has told Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal they will need 90 points to win the Premier League title. The three sides are separated by just one point with 10 games to go, and with Man City hosting Arsenal this Sunday, the title race could get a lot more interesting very soon. Carragher believes that if Arsenal beat the reigning champions in their own backyard, then the Gunners – who are currently top on goal difference – will be considered favourites. But there’s a magic number for each team to aim for, according to the ex-Liverpool defender. In his…
Liverpool is back in Premier League action this weekend as Jürgen Klopp’s side faces Brighton and Hove Albion on Sunday. The Reds have the chance to return to the top of the table with a win against the Seagulls ahead of Manchester City hosting Arsenal shortly after. Goal difference is the only thing separating Liverpool and Arsenal in first and second heading into this weekend, with City facing just a one-point gap in third place. It outlines just how decisive this weekend’s round of fixtures could be in the title race. Away from the upcoming clash against Brighton, Liverpool must…
Xabi Alonso is confident he is in the “right place” as the Bayer Leverkusen shuts down talk of a potential move to Liverpool. Alonso, who has a contract with Leverkusen until 2026, has become the talk of Europe and a reported target for top clubs after leading his team through an unbeaten season while challenging for three trophies. “It’s been a season with a lot of speculation regarding my future. We’ve had many games, we’ve been busy and focused. I used the international break to reflect better and take a decision,” Alonso told reporters. “Last week I had a meeting…
Liverpool’s injury list added an extra name thanks to international action, but Jurgen Klopp had positive news to share regarding Andy Robertson‘s setback as he offered a squad update. The Scotland captain, again, was forced off the field representing his country but, thankfully, this issue is not nearly as serious as his dislocated shoulder. Robertson is to miss Sunday’s clash against Brighton due to his knock to the ankle, but Klopp explained the prognosis is a promising one. He told reporters on Friday: “Robbo we will take it day by day, we will see. He will not train today (Friday)…
The NFC head coaches met with the media on Monday ahead of this week’s NFL Annual League Meeting. In an attempt to get some perspective for the next season, I made an effort to talk to as many of them as I could. Below are updates on injuries, news, and interesting general statements made by the coaches during the media conference. Tampa Bay Eagles In 2023, Rachaad White had a standout season with 15.8 PPR points per game on average.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have marked two players to a one-year contract. Whereas the lion’s share of the Tampa Inlet Buccaneers’ center is on re-signing their huge names from final year’s program, there are still the less big-name players in require of taking care of as well. The likes of Bread cook Mayfield, Mike Evans, and Lavonte David are the most needs for the Buccaneers, but other players have had an affect on the group in a few sort of mold that they would like to keep within the overlay moving into long-standing time. On Tuesday, Tampa Narrows did precisely…
Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo says Liverpool’s Mo Salah and former Chelsea star Christian Pulisic were the two toughest forwards he had to mark during his time in the Premier League. In an interview with Mundo Deportivo, Cancelo said that Salah would probably just edge Pulisic as the most difficult out of the two players to face: “Mmmm Pulisic or Salah, I’ll say Salah.” Cancelo (who is currently on loan at Barcelona) came up against Salah’s Liverpool eight times during his spell with City, but he had a losing record versus the Reds (2 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats).…
Xherdan Shaqiri probably counts as a cult hero at Liverpool. At the very least, to use the language of the kids, he has ‘streets won’t forget’ status. That was earned more or less from his role in the Barcelona comeback alone. Add in a deliciously fortunate deflected brace off the bench to win the game against Manchester United, and a pre-season overhead kick goal against the same opponent right at the start of his Liverpool career, and Shaqiri guaranteed he would always be remembered fondly. At the same time, though, he was one of the few players with whom Jürgen…
