The Julian Ward Reality Check: What You Need To Know
Newsround with Dave Davis returns with plenty happening around Liverpool despite the international break.
Dave begins with Liverpool's youngsters after a dramatic EFL Trophy comeback, with the ten-man Reds recovering from 3-1 down through goals in the 94th and 96th minutes before winning the penalty shootout, while Will Wright and goalkeeper Harvey Davies earn particular attention.
Attention then turns to Liverpool's senior squad, with 19 players heading away on international duty and some potentially facing as many as four matches. Dave assesses the workload facing the Reds and why keeping key players such as Virgil van Dijk and Jeremy Jacquet healthy could be crucial.
There's also a closer look at the remarkable early numbers behind Jacquet and Van Dijk, Liverpool's run of clean sheets and why Dave believes securing a new deal for the captain should be an absolute priority.
Finally, the big off-field story: Julian Ward is expected to become Liverpool's sporting director. Dave examines what Ward's return could mean for contracts, recruitment, January business and Liverpool's longer-term structure amid the potential ownership changes ahead.

Mac Allister OUT, Camara IN?! Liverpool Face HUGE Midfield Decision
Could Liverpool's midfield be heading for another significant change?
On Newsround, Dave Davis looks at the latest surrounding Alexis Mac Allister's Liverpool future after the midfielder reiterated his desire to remain at one of the world's biggest clubs. Mac Allister still has time remaining on his current deal, but Liverpool face a major decision over whether to extend his stay or begin planning for the next evolution of their midfield.
That brings Lamine Camara firmly into the discussion. With Liverpool continuing to be linked with the midfielder, Dave considers whether a potential January or summer move could have major implications for Mac Allister – and why midfield currently looks a much greater transfer priority than adding another attacker.
There's also concern surrounding Florian Wirtz, who Dave believes currently looks short of confidence and conviction. The international break could therefore arrive at the perfect moment, with Dave hoping a big performance for Germany can help rediscover some of the qualities Liverpool know are there.
But there's much more positive news surrounding Alexander Isak. Four goals in five games represents his best start to a Premier League campaign, and Dave looks at why keeping Liverpool's striker fit and supplying him with enough chances could produce a huge goals return this season. Minteh and Kevin Schade transfer links are also discussed, although Dave questions whether another attacker should really be Liverpool's priority.

Liverpool's Next Sporting Director?! HUGE Decisions Await Julian Ward
Liverpool may be three weeks away from their next match, but there's no shortage of major decisions being made behind the scenes at Anfield.
On Newsround, Dave Davis looks at the latest developments in Liverpool's search for a sporting director, with Julian Ward emerging as the internal favourite and Brentford's Lee Dykes also being discussed as a possible co-sporting director or technical director. Dave questions how that structure would work and what it could mean for Pedro Marques, while stressing that Liverpool need clarity quickly.
And whoever gets the job will inherit a substantial to-do list. Virgil van Dijk and Alisson are entering the final year of their contracts, while Liverpool also need to secure the future of Rio Ngumoha amid reported interest elsewhere. Dave explains why these decisions make resolving the sporting-director situation increasingly important.
On the pitch, Liverpool's defensive transformation continues. Jeremy Jacquet, Van Dijk and Ronald Araujo are producing outstanding duel numbers, while Liverpool have recorded three consecutive Premier League clean sheets. Jacquet's 76.3% duel success rate earns particular praise, but Dave agrees with Van Dijk's message: the youngster should be viewed as his partner and protégé rather than his replacement.
Araujo's performances are also forcing a major conversation. Liverpool hold a reported option to make his move permanent, but with the defender turning 28 and other options available, Dave explains why the club can afford to wait before making that call.

GAKPO REBORN… BUT ISAK’S NUMBERS ARE SCARY!
Cody Gakpo looks rejuvenated, creating chances, completing dribbles and winning nine duels at Bournemouth, while Alexander Isak’s numbers inside the box are moving to another level. Four Premier League goals already, vastly improved xG and more touches in the opposition box suggest Liverpool finally have Isak operating exactly where they need him. If that production continues, 20+ league goals is firmly within the statistical conversation.
