It was curious to see Mohamed Salah preparing to come off the bench with 20 minutes to go in Liverpool’s 5-1 Europa League thrashing of Toulouse. His side already three goals to the good, sitting comfortably top of the table in group play, and with most of the first choice squad rested and watching from the sidelines, many Liverpool supporters would’ve deemed it odd for Jurgen Klopp to bring on the Egyptian with the points secured. The manager’s initial rationale became apparent when first Salah was given the armband to see out the match at Anfield, a distinction the living…

He came on for a goal and he got one, his 43rd in European competition for Liverpool. He does…

Despite the straightforward nature of the victory, it was not without talking points and Nunez was at the top of the…
Liverpool were highly impressive as they eased to a 5-1 win at home to Toulouse, with Ryan Gravenberch earning the most praise from those in the media.

It means the Reds have won all three of the European group games so far this season, putting them in complete control of their own destiny. Here’s how the media assessed Liverpool’s victory.

Liverpool look something close to back to their best right now, but it has to be said that they’re still not the force they once were. Indeed, while the Reds have been fantastic this season, they’re some way off being the team that won the Premier League at a canter back in 2019/20. It’s fair to say that the Reds have declined a bit, and speaking on the BBC Match of the Day Top 10 Podcast, Micah Richards has highlighted one player who he believes has declined as of late. Indeed, Richards stated that Virgil van Dijk has dropped his standards in recent…
