LIVERPOOL INJURY ROUND-UP AS KLOPP SWEATING ON FOUR KEY PLAYERS

Friday, October 21st, 2022

Jurgen Klopp watched his side produce a stellar display against Rangers in their 2-0 win in the Champions League in midweek. But the Liverpool boss knows that Arsenal will prove to be a tougher test and, with four players still missing through injury, he will have to manage his squad carefully to avoid risking any further absentees ahead of the crunch clash in north London.

The Reds are currently 11 points adrift of the league leaders after eight games played and a defeat at the Emirates Stadium would cast serious doubt over the Merseyside club’s title ambitions. Klopp will know he may have to do it the hard way with four key squad members still out, although he has been boosted by the return of defensive duo Ibrahima Konate and Calvin Ramsay, while Caoimhin Kelleher has returned to training.

               ARSENAL, LIVERPOOL LEAD RICE TO SIGN YEREMY PINO FROM VILLARREAL

Tuesday, September 20th, 2022

According to a report by Spanish publication MARCA, as relayed by Sport Witness, Arsenal and Liverpool lead the chase for 19-year-old Spanish international Yeremy Pino. The two Premier League giants are keen on signing the winger, with Villarreal open to selling him if their €45 million demand is met. Yeremy Pino’s name has popped in the English and Spanish media after potential interest from Premier League clubs. The Spanish winger has seen his stature rise in La Liga after impressive performances for Villarreal, although he was the least expected player to garner so much attention.

Villarreal hoped to raise funds through player sales, earmarking names such as Pervis Estupinan, Pau Torres and Arnaut Danjuma to depart for big-money deals. However, Pino could become that player to bring considerable funds to help the Spanish club make other moves in the transfer window. Pino is protected by an €80 million release clause, but Villarreal know that may not be his real market value. Hence, they were initially open to letting him leave for around €60 million, which has seemingly been slashed to €45 million per the latest reports from Spain. (more…)

               LIVERPOOL PUT UP MIDFIELDER FOR SALE AMID INTEREST FROM CLUBS

Friday, June 3rd, 2022

According to the Mirror, Liverpool have put up Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain for sale after a disappointing individual season for the English man. In all honesty, he just wasn’t handed starts and his struggle for playing time under Jurgen Klopp in recent months can only be topped by defender Ben Davies. West Ham United and Aston Villa are said to have been put on alert by this development.


The Reds could ask for more than £10million in transfer fees for a player they bought for £35million from Arsenal back in 2017. His current contract expires in the summer of 2023. It seems like this has been a long time coming. After being subbed off in our FA Cup quarter-final win against Nottingham Forest last March, he is yet to feature for the club in any capacity.

LIVERPOOL LEGENDS SET TO FACE OFF WITH UNITED LEGENDS

Tuesday, March 1st, 2022

Over the past years, the rivalry between two of English football’s most successful clubs; Manchester United and Liverpool has been a thrilling one. It has involved a lot of clashes and player rivalries but things have changed quite a bit in recent times because City have become the bigger club from Manchester in the recent years. This has been as a result of United largely spending the last couple of seasons delivering somewhat underwhelming and unconvincing performances that have seen them fail to win the English Premier League title in almost ten years now since Sir Alex Ferguson last did so and retired back in 2013.

The Manchester United vs Liverpool fixture has witnessed a lot of great players in the past, including Cristiano Ronaldo (during his first stint), Paul Scholes, David Beckham, Jamie Carragher, Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres, Carlos Tevez, the Neville Brothers, and many more. There was always something to look forward to whenever this fixture was fast approaching as it always promised some fierce atmosphere and some heated scenes as well.

The pre-match thoughts ahead of the Premier League encounter between hosts Liverpool and Aston Villa was dominated by the return of club legend Steven Gerrard to Anfield in a managerial capacity in the colours of Villa. His team gave a good account of themselves on the defensive front during the game as the Reds needed the brilliance of Salah to unlock the Villa defence. Salah was too tricky for Villa skipper Tyrone Mings who brought him down in the box and was thereafter penalised. Salah made no mistake from the spot kick to give Liverpool a slim win over Villa.
