Internationals Tuesday Update: Quiet Day, but All Wins
The Reds had some substitute action only in Nations League A. Rio Ngumoha came on off the bench for England in what was an already-settled 2-0 win against a Czechia side that played with 10 men for the majority of the match following a 23rd minute Pavel Šulc straight red card. The young winger looked […]
Premier League Say Man City “Systematically Broke League Rules for a Decade”
We’ve all gotten rather used to the rich and powerful escaping meaningful consequences for their misdeeds in recent years, and it’s been the same in sport as in life generally where fans of the Premier League have watched Manchester City engage in obvious financial doping going back more than a decade. Since first purchasing the […]
Jeremy Jacquet “Generally Happy” After Outstanding France Debut
On Monday night, Liverpool rising star centre half Jeremy Jacquet got his debut as new head coach Zinedine Zidane handed the 21-year-old an opportunity with the French national team that by all accounts Jacquet took in outstanding fashion. After the match, though, Jacquet wasn’t getting too excited by it, celebrating the clean sheet and 1-0 […]
Former Liverpool Manager Jurgen Klopp on Florian Wirtz
The International break has handed out the usual dismay with both Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo reported to be returning early to AXA for injury assessments but one positive could be struggling Wirtz’s time away with Jurgen Klopp and the German national team. This writer isn’t interested in piling more pressure onto any Liverpool player […]
Monday Internationals Round-Up: Mamardashvili Manages a Clean Sheet and Jacquet Impresses
In the early window of action, Georgian keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili kept a clean sheet in his team’s 0-0 draw against Ukraine, saving both on target shots faced. While neither shot required a stunning save, the clean sheet will add to his confidence. Both Bradley Barcola and Jérémy Jacquet started for France in their Nation’s League […]
Cody Gakpo to Return to Liverpool Following Netherlands Injury
Over the weekend, Cody Gakpo was forced off in the 17th minute against Serbia with an ankle injury, and there was some hope and expectation that it would only be a mild strain. If it had been, he would have remained in the Dutch camp with an eye to potentially playing their final game of […]
Liverpool and Netherlands Await Results of Cody Gakpo Ankle Scan
Liverpool have already watched as Alexander Isak was sent home from the Swedish national team with a minor thigh issue after the first two international matches.

Fisk on Liverpool Derby Win: “This Is Just the Start”
Liverpool Women started their 2026-27 season strong, with a league win over Charlton along with a draw against Tottenham where they could say they were the clear better side and a defeat at defending champions Manchester City that was level headed at the 90 minute mark.

Alexander Isak Returns To Liverpool With Injury Scare
The hope is that with this precautionary action Isak will be fit for the next Liverpool game after the international break and with that game being against Man City (should be some great chants from the Kop) everyone connected to the Reds will be waiting anxiously. Since the 26/27 season began, Andoni Iraola’s new look […]
Liverpool Monitoring Boca Junior’s Tomas Aranda

Some of these players are already established beyond hopeful prospect, […]
Everything’s the Best: The Meaning of Justice or 114 Charges Later
There are a few things I don’t need a regulatory panel to tell me are true: And, of course, I don’t need to hear any affirmations from the same body that delivered “‘good process, lads” into our lexicon to tell me that Klopp’s Reds were among the most formidable Premier League sides ever constructed. But, […]

It has been eight years since Manchester City’s financial malfeasance, or the parts which we now mostly know about, at least, was first reported on by Der Spiegel.

Tyler Adams on Facing Iraola: “It Felt Strange”
Coming off the back of Liverpool FC’s 1-0 victory away at Bournemouth, where head coach Andoni Iraola made his return to Vitality Stadium, the place he called home for three years before making the move to Anfield.

Liverpool had themselves a solid September in the Premier League, with the Reds recording a two wins and a draw in their three league matches as new head coach Andoni Iraola continues to work to get the team back on track after the disappointment of the 2025-26 campaign.

Alexander Isak in Line to “Start Every Game” for Sweden
Last season’s big money £125M move to join Liverpool from Newcastle couldn’t have gone much worse that it did for Alexander Isak, with the Sweden international struggling for fitness after sitting out pre-season to force the move then missing much of the season due to injury right as he looked to be close to fully […]
Valencia Reportedly Unhappy with Harvey Elliott’s Fitness

Liverpool U21s Stage Comeback Against Rochdale, Wright Scores Incredible Solo Run
The Liverpool FC U21s progressed through the hilariously named EFL Jersey Mike’s Trophy on Tuesday night.
