Media Matters: Inter Milan, Brighton and a Club on the Brink: Can Liverpool Survive This Week?

Media Matters: Inter Milan, Brighton and a Club on the Brink: Can Liverpool Survive This Week?

Dave Davis and David Lynch dive into a defining week that could make or break Liverpool’s season. With Arne Slot’s position weakening by the game, they unpack the mounting pressure after his pointed comments on Konaté, the leaked Van Dijk clip and the growing feeling that the manager is running out of road. Lynch outlines why Liverpool’s struggles are not a blip but the continuation of a rot that began last season. Five points from matches against sides in the bottom half is nowhere near good enough, and even the improved defensive shape is masking a team that no longer creates, no longer controls and no longer convinces. The pair also turn the spotlight on Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards, questioning how the sporting leadership has avoided deeper scrutiny as the Salah row, poor recruitment calls and tactical stagnation converge. With Salah’s interview tying the club’s hands, Slot may now survive longer — but only because Liverpool cannot afford to look like they are bowing to player power. Then comes the football: Inter at the San Siro and Brighton at Anfield. Two opponents in better form, with clearer identities, and with every reason to fancy their chances. Dave and Lynch outline why defeat in both games is entirely plausible and why Slot’s compact, low-event football feels like a short-term sticking plaster rather than a solution. Total uncertainty. Total chaos. A club waiting for answers that may not come. This week could reshape everything. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

LFC U18’s Vs Crewe Report

With their third of the week the young Reds made it eight wins on the spin, showing their grit to come from a goal down away at Crewe. After conceding a penalty and falling behind 1-0 within the first 5 minutes, the team rallied and drew level courtesy of a Toni Silva header. The Portuguese winger bundled home after a Krisztian Adorjan corner, grabbing the goal that certainly his performance earlier in the week against Huddersfield deserved.

LFC U18’s Vs Huddersfield Report

The midweek game saw Huddersfield visit Kirkby and another confident performance from the young Reds, who took the lead in the 1st half after Adorjan & Sterling linked up once again. A long through-ball from the Hungarian sent Raheem through on goal, and the N0. 7 produced a neat finish to flick the ball passed the onrushing keeper.

LFC U18’s Vs Stoke City Report

After the FA Youth Cup drubbing of Southend & Raheem Sterling’s 5 star performance it was back to league action for the Under-18’s with 3 games in the space of 8 days. However, with the likes of Jack Robinson, John Flanagan & Suso now training increasingly at Melwood with the reserve squad and only playing for the U18’s in the FA Youth Cup, Academy League games offer an opportunity for some of our other up and coming players to make a name for themselves.

Liverpool FC Need Wingers…

It’s always hard to calculate transfer costs. Transfer fees can be undisclosed, and additional costs such as agents fees and wages etc are even harder to guess. But despite these obstacles, guesstimates can be made. Looking at the stats we do have, the last four Liverpool FC managers, Gerard Houllier, Rafa Benitez, Roy Hodgson and now Kenny Dalglish, have between them laid out nearly £440 million in transfers, on 172 players. By my count, in total the four of them have laid out £10 million or more on a single player 13 times:

Sotirios Kyrgiakos: Season so far

Whenever I see Kyrgiakos, I always think he should be in the film ‘300’ screaming at the top of his voice ‘This is Sparta!!’ rather than being a footballer. So probably playing Centre Half is very suited to him. His strength and aerial ability has been a useful asset in recent years.

Andy Carroll – The season so far

Right, so recently Liverpool have signed Andy Carroll to replace the outgoing Fernando Torres. But what do we really know about the big number nine? Well be looking at his performances for Newcastle this season we can gain a real insight into his game and where he affects play the most on the pitch. Now you might be tempted to jump straight in and say that he is most effective in and around the opposition penalty area, but that is not necessarily the case.

Meireles is more…

Whether Roy Hodgson came to Liverpool with Raul Meireles in his little black book of decent midfielders or whether he was merely the grateful recipient of some good scouting from the Anfield backroom staff is a moot point. What is clear is that he has certainly been the most successful of the departed’s recruits.
