Arne Slot: “I Believe I’ll Be Liverpool Manager Next Season”

It’s not unusual for a head coach on the hot seat to say he isn’t worried about his job. And it’s not unusual for upper management and sporting directors to mumble supportive things about such a head coach. Yet despite Liverpool’s massively disappointing 2025-26 season, that the club look tired and without a tactical identity […]

Rumour Mongering: Diomande “Focused” Despite Links

Whilst speaking to reporters, RB Leipzig attacker Yan Diomande neither played down nor encouraged a summer transfer, despite links to Liverpool FC and other top European clubs. The 19-year-old stressed that his representatives will take care of everything off the pitch while he continues to focus on what’s on the pitch: “I don’t think about […]

Liverpool Jarrod Bowen Links Make a Comeback

Liverpool were last linked to Jarrod Bowen when Jürgen Klopp was still managing Liverpool Football Club. With the West Ham winger now 29 years old, it probably would have been safe to assume he wouldn’t be getting linked again with the Reds in 2026. Bowen, after all, is a year older than Luis Diaz was […]

Rumour Mongering: Virgil van Dijk Targeted by Galatasaray

Liverpool are limping towards the end of the 2025-26 season, a side set to qualify for the Champions League yet one that too often appears limp, tired, and still without a tactical identity in May, and what the future might hold for this group is massively uncertain. The club continue to signal their unwavering support […]

Joe Gomez On Liverpool Future: “Whatever’s Meant to Be Will Be”

Speaking to Paul Gorst of the Liverpool ECHO after Liverpool FC’s 1-1 draw, defender Joe Gomez spoke about his own Reds future.

Ibrahima Konaté Reportedly “Not Close” to Agreeing New Liverpool Deal

Liverpool are facing a mass exodus of any remaining Jürgen Klopp-era stars this summer, with Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson certain to leave and plenty of reason to believe goalkeeper Alisson Becker could also depart the club. Add in speculation around key squad players like Curtis Jones and Joe Gomez and even some very tenuous […]

Carragher on Arne Slot’s Liverpool: “The Drop off Has Been Stark”

Upper management backing of head coaches under pressure isn’t unusual. In fact, it’s often seen as the kiss of death to have a sporting director come out to say he backs a manager going through a difficult spell—given the very fact such a statement has to be made speaks to how bad things are. Liverpool, […]

Arne Slot “100% Convinced We Will Be a Different Team Next Season”

With reports that Chelsea are moving for Xabi Alonso and more rumblings from Liverpool that the club are determined to stick with head coach Arne Slot despite a disappointing 2025-26 campaign and pressing, passing, finishing, defending, and fitness regressing over the past 18 months, a jaded fanbase may soon have to come to grips with […]

Chelsea Reportedly In Talks with Xabi Alonso to Become Next Manager

When Liverpool’s autumn struggles continued into the new year and with the Reds now slumping towards the end of a disappointing season, there are serious doubts about the direction of the club and Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea was met with boos by an Anfield crowd that has grown impatient. Liverpool will likely still qualify […]

Liverpool Release Details of Permanent Diogo Jota Memorial

The tragic death of Liverpool striker Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva in a auto accident last summer remains a painful, scarring incident for many around Liverpool Football Club, and something that remains quite difficult to talk about in ways that feel genuine or at all useful. Nearly a year has now passed since […]

Sean Cox Attended Saturday’s Match, Gifted Salah GAA Jersey

The result on Saturday against Chelsea may have been mostly disappointing, but there was a small sweet moment that was saved for the day.

Gareth Taylor On FA Cup Exit: “They Got To Grips With How We Were Playing”

Unfortunately, Sunday’s result did not pan out how any one would’ve hoped for the Liverpool Women. Despite going up early by two goals, Brighton fought back and took the tie by 3, summarily showing the Reds the door out of the FA Cup, once again in the semi-final round. Brighton go on to face Manchester […]

Wake Me Up When This Season Ends

Before yesterday’s match, I spent a couple hours in the sun with my family and in-laws, drinking wine in the sun, eating good food, and watching my daughters run around like only a 3 and 6 year olds can. I took a second car to the park so I could leave early to watch Liverpool […]

Joe Gomez: Anfield Boos “The Last Thing We Want”

As the final whistle blew at Anfield on Saturday after another underwhelming performance by the Reds in a 1-1 draw with Chelsea, supporters let their feelings be know with a chorus of boos.

Slot: Change to Come After the Summer

Before Saturday’s match against Chelsea, Liverpool needed 4 points to secure a Champions League spot. And with the Blues coming into Anfield with a 6 match losing streak, it felt like the club could essentially sew up the one task left to accomplish in what’s become a slog of a season. Unfortunately, as we all […]

Digging Deeper Into Liverpool’s 1-1 Draw with Chelsea

Liverpool were without Florian Wirtz (illness) in a match featuring an already depleted attack, and with that limitation in mind it was a strong start from the Reds — though Liverpool looked much blunter in the period following Virgil Van Dijk’s missed chance. Given the absences up front Liverpool managed an alright performance, though sterile […]
