Mo Salah was only on for a brief cameo for Liverpool’s Europa League group stage clash against Toulouse but more than played his part. The Egyptian King received the ball in the box, deftly evaded a challenge, before exercising his killer instinct in the box to hand the Reds a four-goal lead over the French […]

It wouldn’t be a proper Darwin Nunez appearance if the Uruguayan didn’t do something inexplicable on the pitch for Jurgen Klopp’s men. The former Benfica hitman did not disappoint in that regard, following up a rocket of a goal in the first-half with another astonishing miss to add to his collection. To be completely fair […]

Ryan Gravenberch’s slaloming run was pivotal to Darwin Nunez scoring in the first half of Liverpool’s Europa League clash against Toulouse, and the Uruguayan returned the favour later on the night, albeit not as he intended! On 65 minutes it was the Uruguayan’s turn to gallop forward with the ball, exploiting the space in front […]

It’s fair to say that the Toulouse fans at Anfield on Thursday night will have left an impression on their Liverpool counterparts who go to every match at the venue. Long before kick-off in tonight’s Europa League clash, the visiting supporters were hugely boisterous, determined to enjoy every minute of their first visit to Merseyside […]

Caoimhin Kelleher can count himself a very, very lucky boy after a blunder early on in the second-half almost saw Liverpool’s lead cut against Toulouse. The Irishman found himself in need of assistance from skipper Trent Alexander-Arnold as a poor clearance fell into the path of an opponent who gleefully teed up Gabriel Suazo. The […]

Wataru Endo will never forget the night of 26 October 2023, the date of his first goal for Liverpool. The Japanese midfielder opened his account for the Reds in style, expertly planning a looping header beyond Toulouse goalkeeper Guillaume Restes to restore his team’s lead during a very eventful first half at Anfield. Paul Gorst […]

Ryan Gravenberch, it’s fair to say, is beginning to find his groove at Liverpool. The Dutch international delivered a quality first-half showing under the lights at Anfield, proving to be an outstanding midfield general as Jurgen Klopp’s men went into the changing rooms with a 3-1 lead. As the stats shared on X (formerly Twitter) […]

Darwin Nunez repaid Jurgen Klopp’s faith in putting him in the starting XI by scoring Liverpool’s third goal during a very lively first half at Anfield. While the Uruguayan provided the finish, plenty of credit must also go to Ryan Gravenberch, who set off on a scintillating mazy run from the middle of the park […]

Wataru Endo was the man to put Liverpool back in the lead in their Europa League clash with Toulouse. The Japan international was inserted back into the first-XI for the group stage tie and repaid Jurgen Klopp’s faith with a crucial headed goal around the half-hour mark at Anfield. It was a superb effort from […]

Liverpool got off to a fast start in tonight’s Europa League clash against Toulouse at Anfield, with Diogo Jota putting us 1-0 ahead inside the first nine minutes. It was a sublime goal from the Portuguese attacker, too, as he received the ball on the half-turn with his back to goal, swivelled to accelerate towards […]

Gabriel Agbonlahor has questioned Alexis Mac Allister’s performance levels since his summer switch to Liverpool. The Argentine international was snapped up for a paltry £35m, courtesy of a fortuitous release clause, and has since been forced to play at the base of the midfield with Jurgen Klopp yet to trust Wataru Endo (and amid the […]

Micah Richards appeared to suggest that criticism of Virgil van Dijk is a little harsh following a perceived drop in standards. The Englishman pointed to a serious injury the No.4 suffered at the hands of a grossly reckless challenge from Jordan Pickford back in the 2020/21 campaign, which left the former in need of surgery […]

Two group games down and it’s two wins secured for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool in the Europa League ahead of their upcoming meeting with Toulouse. It’s been 16 years since the two sides met, with the likes of Peter Crouch getting on the scoresheet in our Champions League qualifying clash with the Ligue 1 outfit. Times […]

Liverpool’s task may have become a little harder when it comes to the prospect of convincing Assan Ouedraogo to move to Merseyside in one of the coming transfer windows. Florian Plettenberg reported on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the Schalke youngster (17) has been the subject of an inquiry from Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt […]

Virgil van Dijk has lauded the impact of substitutions made by Jurgen Klopp this term ahead of the Reds’ upcoming Europa League group stage clash with Toulouse. The skipper took pen to paper to credit the hard work taking place on and off the pitch as the Anfield-based outfit strives to improve upon a poor […]

Jarrod Bowen has said that he’s been drawing inspiration from Liverpool forward Mo Salah in trying to enhance his positioning in order to improve his goalscoring return. The West Ham winger is reportedly admired by the Anfield hierarchy (The Athletic), and it’s not unthinkable that the Reds could swoop for him if they eventually cave […]

Liverpool and Manchester City could potentially face off in a battle to sign a left-back who turned down a move to another Premier League side during the summer. According to TEAMtalk, Ian Maatsen is set to leave Chelsea in the January transfer window and wants to join a ‘top club’, with the 21-year-old reportedly an […]

Diogo Jota may not have been the happiest bunny watching back one of Liverpool’s latest YouTube videos. The Portuguese international, surprisingly not present for a game of FC24 Forfeits – though perhaps unsurprisingly in light of Dominik Szoboszlai, Darwin Nunez and Ryan Gravenberch’s admissions over the videogame – was the subject of a tongue-in-cheek dig […]

Jurgen Klopp has offered something of a selection hint with two players he’s invited to train with the first-team yesterday ahead of a meeting with Toulouse. Neil Jones shared the update in question on X, with the Merseysiders set to take on the Ligue 1 outfit in the Europa League group stages this evening. Both […]

Toulouse coach Carles Martinez and defender Mikkel Desler were awestruck as they savoured a first look at Anfield prior to tonight’s Europa League clash against Liverpool. It’s been 16 years since the Ligue 1 club’s only previous visit to the venue, which has since had two stands expanded (including the ongoing Anfield Road redevelopment), and […]

Alan Shearer has held his hands up to have been proven wrong with his initial verdict on Liverpool’s acquisition of Virgil van Dijk in January 2018. It’s now been nearly six years since the Reds paid £75m – then a world-record fee for a defender (BBC Sport) – to sign the Netherlands international from Southampton, […]

Gary Neville has paid what could politely be called a backhanded compliment to one Liverpool player on social media. The Sky Sports pundit invited questions from his followers on X in a quickfire Q&A session on Thursday morning, with one Aston Villa fan asking him to name the best midfielder in the Premier League outside […]

Neil Jones has given his assessment of Liverpool’s chances of securing a move for Jamal Musiala in 2024. The Bayern Munich midfielder has been strongly linked with the Reds in recent days, with Football Insider‘s Pete O’Rourke writing that Anfield chiefs are ‘doing their due diligence on a potential deal’ for the 20-year-old, who they […]

Neil Jones has backed one Liverpool player to ‘go from strength to strength’ throughout the course of the season. Darwin Nunez netted 15 goals in his first campaign at Anfield last term (Transfermarkt) but was still regularly criticised for the chances that he missed. The bombastic Uruguayan is already on four goals and four assists […]

Dominik Szoboszlai turned 23 on Wednesday, something which would’ve been quite apparent to anyone in the vicinity of the AXA Training Centre yesterday. During the preparations for tonight’s Europa League clash against Toulouse, Liverpool’s players made sure the Hungarian was well serenaded, as can be seen in footage captured by journalist Ian Doyle. The squad […]
