Jurgen Klopp has confirmed Liverpool avoided suffering any further injuries in their Merseyside derby victory over Everton – and explained what he loves most about match-winner Mohamed Salah. Andy Robertson joined the club’s injury list in midweek after dislocating his shoulder on international duty, with it since being confirmed that he is set for a three-month lay-off. Stefan Bajcetic and Thiago Alcantara remain sidelined following long-term injury, while Cody Gakpo wasn’t risked against the Blues despite returning to team training in midweek following a knee injury. Liverpool’s victory over Everton saw them temporarily move top of the table and return to winning…
Rave of the moment Adebayo Abraham, popularly known as Shanko Tiphe, in this interview with Ebenezer Bajela, talks about his rise to stardom, his Chelsea dream and Eagles chances of winning next year’s AFCON A video of you freestyling is one of the most trending topics on social media recently. How has this impacted you? It has been a life-changing experience for me because I didn’t expect that to happen, but now I am expecting more after the song made it into the Top 100 songs in Africa on Shazam. I plan to drop another hit by next month. When…
Arsenal travel to Stamford Bridge to face Mauricio Pochettino for the first time as Chelsea boss. They’ve dropped a major lineup hint in the buildup. Arsenal return to Premier League action after what felt like months of the international break. The reason why the Gunners were so eager to return to action was because they left off on a pretty good note, beating Manchester City late on. The player who scored the late goal, Gabriel Martinelli, was a substitute in the match since he hadn’t fully recovered from injury. But now, the Brazilian winger could be ready for action against…
The red and blue halves of Merseyside will meet for the 243rd time on Saturday lunchtime in a huge clash to get us back underway after the international break. Liverpool have won six of their last seven meetings with the Blues at Anfield and are looking to continue that trend as they search for a much-needed three points to rebuild their early season momentum. They will have to do so without a number of key squad members, with the manager providing a fitness update for the squad in his Friday press conference. Here is a rundown of who is available,…
In his exclusive column for CaughtOffside, former Liverpool attacker Stan Collymore discusses some of football’s biggest talking points, including how football can help Sandro Tonalo overcome a gambling addiction, what the January transfer window could have in store for Kalvin Phillips and Scott Mctominay, as well as a look ahead to this weekend’s Merseyside Derby, plus much more. I’m sure Newcastle United would have been shocked when they heard Sandro Tonali’s agent confirm he has a gambling addiction, and although they won’t come out and say it, they would have felt disappointed but the club will look after him. They,…
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Ben Doak is unavailable for Saturday’s Premier League clash with Everton. The Reds will hope to get back to winning ways after the international break with a big Merseyside derby encounter at Anfield. Doak has broken into the Liverpool first team this season and, despite being just 17, is already looking like he belongs in the Premier League. “Ben Doak from Scotland has a little muscle thing, so we have to see but is not available for the weekend,” said the Liverpool boss. Doak has been one of the standout youngsters in the Liverpool…
The Scouser, who celebrates his 80th birthday today, boasts a haul of 61 goals during his 12-year career with the Reds at senior level. It’s a hugely respectable total from any perspective, one he shares with Jan Molby, but further context adds extra shine and sparkle to it. Indeed, Lawler was a right-back in Bill Shankly’s team – and a good one at that. And no, he didn’t take penalties or free-kicks either. He also only really ventured forward on corners when Liverpool were behind in games. Instead, it was his sixth sense and ‘brain of a striker’, according to…
According to Italian journalist Valter Di Maggio, Liverpool reportedly have an agreement in place with Victor Osimhen to join them next summer. The reporter told Area Napoli via Sport Witness about a possible U-turn from the 24-year-old striker and his agent about renewing their contract with Napoli, as Liverpool’s interest has turned their head. Liverpool’s interest in Victor Osimhen is nothing new, with the Reds keen to sign the Nigerian in 2020, as per his agent Roberto Calenda. Instead, Napoli paid a significant amount of money to secure the 24-year-old striker, and he has been a resounding success at the…
Liverpool are interested in signing Victor Osimhen, with Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis revealing talks over a new deal have stalled. Osimhen helped fire Napoli to their first Serie A title since 1990 last year with 26 league goals in 32 games, with the Nigerian’s form attracting interest from a number of clubs across Europe. The 24-year-old’s current contract is due to expire in 2025 and Liverpool recently sent scouts to watch Osimhen in action during the international break. Liverpool are thought to have held long-term interest in the forward and will be buoyed by De Laurentiis’ latest comments on…
Liverpool are being hard done by in regards to the Premier League’s fixture scheduling. The Reds are set for another 12.30 kick-off tomorrow, already their second of the campaign, with a third to follow next month. Statistics show that Liverpool regularly play in the lunchtime slot after the international break far more than any of their rivals. And speaking to that on TalkSPORT today, former England defender Martin Keown says he does feel some sympathy with Jurgen Klopp about the matter. “Jurgen Klopp complaining that it’s another 12.30 game. Incidentally, I think he has a point in all of this,” says…
