Another match, another demoralizing defeat for the Liverpool Women.

Slot Talk: On Squad Depth and Players’ Returns

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot fielded questions about team form, a lack of home advantage of late, and, of course, Mohamed Salah (the latter questions are those he largely did not answer).

Perhaps inevitably, pretty much the only thing anyone wanted to talk about with Liverpool manager Arne Slot when he held his pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday’s game against Brighton was Mohamed Salah. After being Liverpool’s most consistent top performer over eight seasons, Salah has struggled to find his form this season and found himself […]

Xabi Alonso Close to Sacking at Real Madrid

When Liverpool found themselves having to replace Jürgen Klopp in 2024 when the legendary manager signalled he was tired and needed to step away from football for a time, for many the top potential replacement was always meant to be then Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso.

Robertson Opens Up On Mohamed Salah Situation: “It Needs to Be Resolved”

For eight seasons, Mohamed Salah has consistently been Liverpool’s top performer. He hasn’t carried the team on his own, but he’s been the constant, and he has the trophy haul and goal return to justify talk that he’s one of the club’s three best players of all time. To find himself benched as he was […]

Robertson On Liverpool Win and Fortunate Penalty: “We All Needed It”

There’s been a bit of a recurring theme this season where Liverpool mostly either play poorly and drop points or play pretty well but still manage to drop points, be it through perplexing individual errors or moments where the team collectively shut off or through questionable refereeing decisions.

Szoboszlai Reflects On Scoring Liverpool Winner During Difficult Moment

As poorly as Liverpool’s season has gone in the Premier League so far in 2025-26, there have at least been moments of positivity in the Champions League where they have won four of six and find themselves at least tenuously in the top eight that would qualify for a bye though the first knockout round.

Digging Deeper Into Liverpool’s 1-0 Victory Over Inter Milan

I managed to catch this game exactly as Liverpool 2025/26 has deserved: first half relegated to my phone screen. Was this one pretty? No. Did they get the job done (semi-surprisingly)? Absolutely. It was nice to see the errors made by the opposition only in Milan, with Liverpool largely looking like a unit in challenging […]
