Liverpool’s Dominik Szobozlai has enjoyed a brilliant start to life on Merseyside, and now he’s reached an incredible milestone. Signed from RB Leipzig in the summer for £60m, the Hungarian international has played every league game so far and been a revelation. Having already settled into Jurgen Klopp’s side, he’s become a key starter after their summer transfer business and fans have loved his work-rate, energy and flair – and now they’ve been impressed by another strong attribute. According to Sports Scientist Simon Brundish, Szobozlai became the 2nd fastest footballer in Premier Leaguehistory against Wolves after recording a top speed of…
A report from Fichajes claims that both European clubs have set their sights on the 24-year-old Portuguese international and they could look to make a move in the summer. It is hardly a surprise that Liverpool are looking to bring in a quality attacker, especially with the future of Mohamed Salah uncertain. The 31-year-old Egyptian was heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia during the summer transfer window, but the Reds managed to hold on. Those clubs are likely to return for Salah at the end of the season and Liverpool might be open to selling him in the summer. He…
The Reds have five attackers who could genuinely be described as world-class, and according to Steve Nicol, speaking on the Aldo Meets Podcast, Darwin Nunez may well be the most frightening striker Liverpool have right now. Indeed, Nicol says that he’d rather play against either Cody Gakpo or Diogo Jota rather than Nunez if he was a defender. “You don’t want anything to do with this guy. If I’m playing at centre-back I would rather play against Jota and I’d rather play against Gakpo. If Nunez is starting I’m like ‘oh god, I’m in for a tough time today.’ That’s…
This campaign is the defender’s eighth season with the Reds after becoming one of Jurgen Klopp’s first signings when he moved on a free transfer from Schalke in the summer of 2016. Matip has gone on to play 190 matches for Liverpool, scoring 11 goals and winning every trophy possible on Merseyside. The 32-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and his responsibilities have been reduced this season, leaving many expecting the centre-back to leave next summer. However, Matip has hinted at staying at Anfield beyond this season and it is possible that the Liverpool fan…
When Liverpool kicks off its Europa League campaign against LASK in Austria on Thursday, manager Jürgen Klopp is expected to hand opportunities to players on the fringes of the first XI, as well as his brightest youngsters. One player who would almost certainly have featured in this fixture had he stuck around, as someone who fits into both categories, is Fábio Carvalho, but it was decided that a loan move to RB Leipzig was best for his development. After he played just 11 Premier League minutes across three substitute appearances between his final top-flight start in October 2022 at the…
The Egyptian is by no means a selfish player, but neither is he one to pass up the opportunity to bolster his legacy by adding to an already ludicrous goalscoring tally. And, if there is one major upside to Liverpool’s descent into Europe’s second-tier competition for a player of such quality, then it is surely that chances to score are going to prove far easier to come by than they might in the Champions League. Of course, the crucial factor here is that it is actually the manager who picks the team, and it is not yet clear what tack…
To say that Alexis Mac Allister has slotted in seamlessly since his summer transfer would be an understatement. The man has filled in all over midfield, and barring an undeserved red card against Bournemouth and what seemed to be altitude-induced fatigue from the international break in the last game, he seems to be enjoying his football. In an interview with Spanish outlet La Nacion (h/t Liverpool Echo), Liverpool FC midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has opened up about working with his new manager, Jürgen Klopp. “But many of my teammates blame me because they say that he is my dad now. The relationship with him is…
Liverpool’s arch-rival Manchester United has endured a miserable start to the new season, losing three of its first five matches for the first time in the Premier League era. On Saturday, the Red Devils suffered their first home league defeat in over a year, going down 3-1 to Brighton, which was incidentally the last side to beat them at Old Trafford. The pick of the Seagulls’ goals was surely Pascal Groß’s second, not necessarily because of the finish (however clinical it was), but because of the 30-pass masterpiece that preceded it. It felt like a goal that epitomized everything manager…
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named former Liverpool star Roberto Firmino as the player who caused him the most problems as manager of Manchester United. Speaking to the Athletic, the former Red Devils coach revealed that the Brazilian international was the player who gave Solskjaer the biggest headache during his time at Old Trafford. Liverpool were dominant against United during Solskjaer’s tenure at the club, with the Reds winning by scorelines of 4-0 and 5-0 against their Manchester rivals. And perhaps unsurprisingly, Solskjaer has named Firmino as the player who he hated facing the most, with the forward often turning up for Liverpool…
Royale Union Saint-Gilloise are reportedly looking to land a major marquee signing ahead of their clash with Liverpool. The Belgian side are part of the Reds’ Europa League group, with Jurgen Klopp’s side getting underway against LASK on Thursday night. Union SG are a team with a growing reputation, having reached the quarter-finals of the competition last season and finished second in the league. Their success in recent years is connected to investment from Brighton owner Tony Bloom. Union SG’s rise will be familiar to one player in the Liverpool squad, Alexis Mac Allister, whose brother Kevin joined the club…
