Darren Bent thinks the rejuvenated Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma is a ‘man on a mission’ this season. Putting aside Yves Bissouma’s moment to forget during Tottenham’s 1-0 win at Luton Town yesterday, which saw him pick up a second yellow card for diving. It has been an ‘outstanding’ start to the new Premier League season for the midfielder, with Darren Bent suggesting that he is out to prove the likes of Antonio Conte wrong, as he told Premier League Productions (07/04/23 at 2:45 pm). Under Ange Postecoglou, the ball-carrying midfielder is looking every bit of the midfielder that Spurs signed…
Jurgen Klopp has made a total of six changes from midweek for the final league match before the international break at Brighton. It has been quite the week where Liverpool are concerned but now their attention lies back with the Premier League action, and there is no doubt they will be fired up. The Reds are in Brighton without Cody Gakpo due to injury, nor Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota thanks to suspension from the events that transpired at Tottenham. Alisson, though, is fit and available and on the hunt for his second successive clean sheet. Trent Alexander-Arnold starts at right-back next to Joel Matip, with Virgil van Dijk and Andy…
Nothing will stop Liverpool from feeling that the lost Luis Díaz goal against Spurs after a calamitous VAR error could yet become costly, but for now, the Reds simply have to attempt to get back on track. Up next: Brighton. Having taken over from Graham Potter around a year ago, Roberto De Zerbi has made progress over the past few months, but the challenge of tackling European football at the same time as the Premier League is a tricky one to balance. While Liverpool is used to that, this is the first season that Brighton is facing juggling midweek games. This fixture…
Trent Alexander-Arnold has admitted he is relishing his hybrid role at Liverpool and the greater control he is able to have on games as a result. The Liverpool star was first trialled in this system during a 2-2 draw with Arsenal in April, which sees the 25-year-old occupy midfield spaces when in possession of the ball. The impact of this change was obvious, with Jurgen Klopp’s side winning seven consecutive Premier League matches after their meeting with the Gunners before drawing their final two games of the campaign. Alexander-Arnold has continued to be utilised in the same role this term…
Cody Gakpo is missing for Liverpool ahead of today’s Premier League trip to Brighton. Gakpo was forced off at Spurs last weekend and is not available for the trip to the Amex Stadium, though Jurgen Klopp is optimistic he will be back after the international break. Klopp: “Cody, there is a good chance. He is already out of the brace, walks normal around, so from all the very, very bad opportunities and possibilities injury-wise, I think he nearly got the best but is still injured.” Liverpool will be without Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones after their red cards against Spurs.…
A report from Football Insider claims that they could look to accelerate their pursuit of the 22-year-old defender when the transfer window reopens in January. Apparently, Liverpool are keen on signing a left-sided centre back and they tried to get someone in during the summer transfer window as well. Inacio has established himself as a key player for Sporting CP and he could prove to be a quality long-term acquisition. The 22-year-old is versatile enough to operate as a left-back as well, and he could be a useful option for Jurgen Klopp. Liverpool need someone who will add more depth to the…
The Reds were heading towards a third straight defeat with the pressure on Erik ten Hag set to ramp up until his midfielder netted two stoppage-time goals to earn the hosts a 2-1 triumph. Mathias Jensen had put Brentford ahead on 26 minutes after Andre Onana could not keep his effort out. However, the visitors were left crestfallen by the late McTominay show as United clocked their fourth Premier League win of the season. Here are a few things United supporters may have missed amidst the chaos at Old Trafford. Limbs were flying in the terraces around Old Trafford when McTominay netted the winner seven…
It is a momentous day for Jurgen Klopp as he celebrates eight years as Liverpool manager, can he notch league win 191 against tricky Brighton? On this day eight years ago, Klopp was appointed as Liverpool manager. He has overseen 190 wins in his 303 league games in charge. Liverpool are six goals short of recording 650 in league games under the German. And he’ll hope to see 11 players start and finish on his special day as Liverpool have spent almost a quarter of this league campaign with fewer than 11 players on the pitch, in terms of minutes. Salah outright top…

According to Spanish source, Nacional, Man Utd prepare an offer to sign Jose Gimenez from the Rojiblancos. The Catalan media outlet have mentioned that Ten Hag likes…
