Liverpool 6 - 0 Leeds - The Player Ratings
Alisson Becker - 7.5
His last start before he makes way for the final, and was a spectator in this one as he will be on Sunday. Continued to watch the game, as nothing much came into the reds half.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 8.5
Back into the team,...
The familiar stats regarding Trent Alexander-Arnold’s assists, appear now in each and every game. His rise to world class status has been truly sensational, and even the most deluded fans (or Gareth Southgate) cannot ignore his exceptional impact on the game any longer.
After displacing Nathaniel Clyne some years ago, the slightly built fullback was...
The international break is an issue for two reasons: first, there’s no football for what feels like forever. Second, people start to judge players on what they’re doing for their national team and then complain that they aren’t replicating these performances at club level. It happened with Gini Wijnaldum and it is now happening...
Stubbornness, single mindedness, arrogance and an absolute inability to adjust one's methods, can be the downfall of even the best managers in modern football.
In recent years we have seen the likes of Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho, unable to adapt to the modern needs of Premier League football, with both departing the division at...

Thanks to a Jordan...
Liverpool continued their 100% winning start to the Premier League season with a 2-0 win over Burnley at Anfield.

Liverpool defenders Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are both expecting to be able to enjoy a full pre-season training schedule.
Van Dijk has been out injured since last October while Alexander-Arnold got injured on international duty before this summer's Euros.
In recent days, Van Dijk posted a tweet saying "Pre-season ready" along with a video...
To even consider that Trent Alexander-Arnold was to be omitted from England’s summer competition, is quite astounding. There are few players in the world football that can deliver a ball with his precision and assist in such audacious ways. Gareth Southgate inevitably saw sense, though that tournament was taken away by a cruel injury...
Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has had to withdraw from the England squad for this summer's European Championship.
The 22-year-old had just been confirmed as part of Gareth Southgate's squad earlier this week. He then started England's friendly win over Austria on Wednesday night. However, he limped off with an injury late in the game.
Today, it...
