“He’s not playing well” – Liverpool star under fire after Burnley performance

Liverpool Star Criticised After Frustrating Burnley Draw Arne Slot arrived at Liverpool amid optimism and, for a while, he delivered on it in emphatic style. Winning the Premier League in his debut season marked him out as a manager who could seamlessly inherit and reshape a heavyweight club. Yet football rarely respects neat narratives. Liverpool’s...

Report: Liverpool star set to leave in summer as contract talks stall

Konate Contract Talks Expose Liverpool’s Quietest Risk Liverpool have become adept at managing transition. Managers change, squads evolve, titles are won, eras end.

Ibrahima Konate now sits firmly inside that space, and the longer...

Paul Joyce: Liverpool star ‘likely’ to leave the club

Federico Chiesa and Liverpool: A Talent Caught Between Eras Liverpool’s season continues to move forward with an air of quiet tension.

One of them centres on Federico Chiesa, a player whose...

Report: Liverpool in talks to sign Premier League star

Micky van de Ven and Liverpool’s Search for Defensive Continuity Liverpool’s transfer planning rarely announces itself with noise.

That process now appears to be under way once more, with Micky van de...

Journalist: Liverpool felt deal for England international “not so appealing”

Guehi Switch to Man City Rekindles Liverpool’s Defensive Debate Liverpool did not sign Marc Guehi in the summer. That fact alone might have passed quietly into the background of a long season.

Liverpool’s Tactical Control Is Shaping Match Outcomes in the Current Season

Liverpool’s early games of 2026 have been defined less by chaos and more by control.

Another Draw, Another Question as Wirtz Carries Liverpool Forward

Liverpool 1 – 1 Burnley – Premier League Postmortem By Steven Smith After a week of decent results and encouraging performances, consistency was needed on top of three points as the shadow of Xabi Alonso loomed quietly over Anfield.

Journalist: Liverpool star was ‘a level above anyone else’ against Burnley

Florian Wirtz and Liverpool Form: A Star Rising Amid Uncertainty Liverpool are searching for rhythm, confidence and clarity.

Florian Wirtz, still adapting to the demands of English football, is not...

Slot discusses Alonso sacking and sporting directors

Arne Slot, Xabi Alonso and the Unease of Modern Football Power Anfield has never been a place that tolerates uncertainty particularly well. It thrives on conviction, on belief made flesh through noise and ritual. Yet as the 2026 season unfolds, Liverpool find themselves caught in a familiar modern contradiction: stability in results, instability in mood....

What, exactly, does Jurgen Klopp do now?

The Future of Klopp For most of the past two decades, the answer to that question was simple. Jürgen Klopp coached football teams.

Mainz, Dortmund, Liverpool — each stop added another layer to a reputation forged...

Lynch: Understand the booing and not just online fans unhappy

Understanding Liverpool fans booing For years, Liverpool supporters have been portrayed as a singular, almost mythic entity: loyal to a fault, endlessly patient, and fiercely protective of their own. Criticism, when it came, was often dismissed as the work of faceless accounts online, voices amplified by algorithms rather than lived experience. Yet recent scenes at...

Liverpool one of a number of clubs in for Bundesliga star

Why Liverpool’s Interest in Diomande Says as Much About Wirtz as It Does the Market Liverpool’s season has developed a habit of drifting between promise and frustration, between flashes of clarity and moments that feel unresolved.

Opinion: Youth star maybe ready for Liverpool first team

Will Wright and the Quiet Logic of Liverpool’s Next Gamble Liverpool have built much of their modern identity on the idea that progress is rarely loud. It tends to arrive early, unnoticed, carrying a whiff of inevitability only in hindsight. The story of Will Wright, a teenager with an outsized goalscoring record and a growing...

Alonso entrance maybe opportunity for Liverpool youngster

Why Liverpool’s Future May Already Be Standing in Plain Sight Liverpool’s search for clarity in an uncertain season has largely focused on names from elsewhere. Florian Wirtz continues to hover in the background of any discussion involving Xabi Alonso, an elegant shorthand for continental sophistication and tactical certainty. Yet sometimes football’s answers are not imported,...

Report: Journalist honest about Liverpool and Guehi deal

Why Liverpool Lost Out on Marc Guehi as Man City Seized the Moment Liverpool’s failure to land Marc Guehi is not a story about one missed transfer.

Liverpool youngster expected to depart on loan after team news

Liverpool’s January Signal Points Towards Wellity Lucky Loan Move Liverpool rarely shout about their intentions in the January transfer window.

Liverpool target €90m Premier League star as Van Dijk successor
