Liverpool renew their rivalry with Chelsea on Saturday in a fixture that should the Reds win, it would potentially spell the end for Jose Mourinho as far as him being the Blues’ boss is concerned. The Anfield club haven’t beaten the Londoners since the 2011-12 campaign when they did the double over the Blues in […]
Liverpool could pull off the signing of Borussia Dortmund defender Neven Subotic, says German football writer Raphael Honigstein. The likes of Marco Reus and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang have been linked with a move to Anfield since Jurgen Klopp took the reigns, but Subotic is a more likely target according to Honigstein. “His former CEO and chairman […]
Jurgen Klopp earned his first win as Liverpool manager on Wednesday night, as a Nathaniel Clyne strike in the first half earned the Reds a 1-0 win over Bournemouth in the Capital One Cup. Clyne, playing in an unfamiliar left-back position, was the first to react when Joao Teixeira’s delicious flick was well cleared off […]
Jurgen Klopp’s first game in charge of Liverpool at Anfield didn’t quite live up to expectations. Having fallen behind early on, the Reds managed to pull themselves level, but against 10 men, they should really have gone on to win the game comfortably. Liverpool are nowhere near clinical enough in front of goal, and Daniel […]
Christian Benteke has named two Liverpool players in his best five-a-side team consisting of past and present team mates.

Jose Mourinho believes former Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers should have been given more time at Anfield.

Rodgers was a youth and reserve coach […]
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that forwards Roberto Firmino and Christian Benteke will not take part in Saturday’s fixture against Tottenham Hotspur. The German held his first pre-match news conference at Melwood on Thursday, and when asked about the duo, who cost more than £60m between them, Klopp said: “They are back on the […]
Tottenham and Liverpool face off on Saturday afternoon, in what will be Jurgen Klopp’s first game in charge of the Reds. While the Anfield club have emerged victorious the last five times the sides have met, Spurs have finished above them in the Premier League in five of the last six seasons. Neither finished in […]
Liverpool defender Joe Gomez’s season could be over due to a serious knee injury sustained on international duty. The teenager hobbled off during England’s Under-21 victory over Kazakhstan on Tuesday night, and the problem is more serious than it was initially thought, according to Dominic King of the Daily Mail. Gomez, who signed for the […]
Toronto FC striker Sebastion Giovinco has insisted that he is happy playing in MLS, despite talkSPORT reporting that Liverpool have renewed their interest in the Italian. The 28-year-old, who had been on Juventus’ books for nearly two decades, left Turin last summer and was a huge coup for Toronto. It has been a worthwhile investment […]
Liverpool have informally approached the representatives of Porto starlet Ruben Neves, according to Ed Malyon of the Mirror. This approach has been received well, says Malyon, and the Reds are confident that they can strike a deal. The 18-year-old – who has been the subject of interest from many of Europe’s elite clubs – could […]
