The Rock is once again asked about facing Roman Reigns. The Great One tells Will Cain of Fox News that a showdown with the Tribal Chief would do insane numbers at WrestleMania, and that he and WWE are still figuring out the best time for the clash to happen. He adds that he’s a “long-gamer” and wants to give it the proper time to build. We’re talking about that right now. I like to consider myself a long-gamer and a builder. The idea of going up against Roman Reigns and creating, if we were to do something like that, quite…
Roman Reigns once again defended his WWE Universal Championship at Royal Rumble. During the show, he was spotted with a special guest. Fans captured footage of Reigns walking throughout Tropicana Field — the venue of the premium live-event — accompanied by Paul Heyman and a fan, who was later confirmed to be a member of the Make A Wish Foundation. The fan could be seen holding onto Reigns’ shoulder as he stalked through the arena, likely to his suite where he watched the Men’s Royal Rumble. “We’re talking about that right now” Reigns successfully defended his title against AJ Styles, LA…
Liverpool continued their impressive start to the calendar year by destroying Chelsea on Wednesday evening. Diogo Jota and Conor Bradley scored before the break with Dominik Szoboszlai and Luis Diaz netting in the second half as the Reds romped to a 4-1 triumph. The result means Jurgen Klopp’s men are again five points clear at the Premier League summit and have lost just once in their last 33 top-flight games. But there was plenty that went unnoticed or under the radar during the 90 minutes at Anfield. Darwin Nunez did just about everything but score during a typically all-action performance…
Having denied them the post-match show on Sunday, there was no way Jurgen Klopp was going to ignore the Kop once more. Certainly not after this. After smiting aside Chelsea with the most convincing display of the season so far, Klopp felt duty-bound to follow it up with those trademark fist bumps that stir the soul of the Liverpool faithful. How could he not? The last few days have been an emotional time for a fanbase still reeling from the bombshell announcement their manager will be walking away from the club he has transformed over much of the last decade.…
Within hours of Jürgen Klopp’s shock announcement that he will leave Liverpool at the end of the season, Xabi Alonso had been installed as the bookies’ favourite to take over. The former Reds midfielder has done an excellent job with Bayer Leverkusen, and has already been linked with some of the biggest jobs in Europe. Leverkusen is currently top of the Bundesliga table after going unbeaten so far this season. The German side is on course to be the first side to pip Bayern Munich to the title since Klopp’s Borussia Dortmund back in 2012. Alonso remains the frontrunner to replace…
Liverpool is flying at the moment. Not even the news of Jürgen Klopp’s departure has been able to unsettle the team, which still counts the VAR farce at Spurs as its only league defeat of the season. Yesterday’s result was the most resounding of the lot, with Chelsea finally put to the sword after seven consecutive draws. It’s a result that had been coming, and was all the more satisfying for that, especially as Liverpool tries to improve its big-six record for the campaign. Despite rattling off 11 shots, Darwin Núñez was not among the scorers, but he did lay on a goal…
Pep Lijnders has hinted that he would like to be a future Liverpool manager when explaining his decision to leave the club alongside Jurgen Klopp. It was announced last week that the German would leave the Reds at the end of the season, with Lijnders, Peter Krawietz, and Vitor Matos all joining Klopp in vacating their positions. The Dutchman returned to Liverpool as assistant manager to Klopp in June 2018, following a brief stint in charge of NEC Nijmegen. And he has always been open about his desire to pursue a managerial career of his own when his time at Anfield…
Pep Lijnders is set to start his managerial career away from Liverpool – but hinted he would like to sit in the Reds’ hotseat in the future. Jurgen Klopp’s assistant noted that he hopes ‘our paths cross again in the future – that would be absolutely unbelievable’ as he explained the reasons for his departure. Lijnders was one of the figures tipped to succeed Klopp but believes it is a fitting time to depart the club with a strong squad. The Dutch coach leaves the club alongside Klopp, Vitor Matos and Peter Krawietz at the end of the season with…
Manchester United were reportedly interested in signing Conor Bradley before he opted for a move to Liverpool in 2019. That’s according to The Athletic, which claims that Man United were one of three Premier League sides who were scouting the 20-year-old. Conor Bradley has made quite the impression for Liverpool in recent weeks. The 20-year-old enjoyed an eye-catching debut at Bournemouth 11 days ago where he registered an assist. Bradley has since provided four assists and bagged one goal in his last two games for Liverpool, with his first goal for the club coming against Chelsea last night. And according…
Jürgen Klopp was left singing the praises of Conor Bradley once again after a phenomenal performance in Liverpool’s win over Chelsea. The Northern Ireland international was also credited alongside two other players for maintaining the Reds’ lead in the Premier League in recent weeks. Bradley was the architect of Liverpool’s 4-1 win as Chelsea was thrashed at Anfield. Having set up Diogo Jota for the opener, the 20-year-old then fired in his first senior goal for the club to put the hosts in complete control. Darwin Núñez missed the chance to extend the lead from the penalty spot just before the break, but Bradley was on hand…
