Liverpool Women to Host Brighton in FA Cup Semi-Final

Over the weekend, while Liverpool’s men’s team were busy embarrassing themselves as they followed up a promising start against Manchester City in their FA Cup quarter-final by falling apart completely at the first sign of adversity, the women’s team was doing not that.

Dominik Szoboszlai: “The Fighting Spirit Wasn’t There Enough”

Liverpool crashed out of the FA cup in extremely unceremonious fashion against Manchester City on Saturday.

Liverpool to Manage Another Scheduling Challenge, but Slot Hopes for Success

Liverpool face Manchester City this weekend in Saturday’s early kick-off: never a friendly kick-off time after the team travel over an international break.

Arne Slot On “Exciting” Challenge of Facing Manchester City and PSG

Liverpool’s 2025-26 has fallen about as short of expectation as possible, with the defending Premier League champions investing heavily in last summer’s transfer window only to bomb straight out of the title race while playing arguably their worst football since Fenway Sports Group took over more than a decade ago. The season’s not over yet, […]

That didn’t happen, […]

Ibrahima Konaté Reflects On Disappointing Liverpool Season

Liverpool’s 2025-26 season hasn’t gone as anyone would have expected, planned, or hoped.
