LIVERPOOL VS. FULHAM | Saturday, September 12th |Premier League | Anfield3PM BST/10AM EST A couple of words maybe a single short para serving as a micro preview for the match, why it’s important, what the main concerns are, or whatever.

Andoni Iraola: Araújo Accustomed to “Big Games”
Speaking to the press ahead of Fulham’s visit to Anfield for the afternoon kick-off on Saturday, Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola was asked to assess the name many have been discussing from the past two matches: on-loan Barcelona defender Ronald Araújo. “I think Ronald, as you say, he’s used to playing big games,” Iraola said. “He’s […]

LIVERPOOL VS. FULHAM | Saturday, September 12th |Premier League | Anfield3PM BST/10AM EST Fulham were unlucky to lose against Crystal Palace in a game they created a lot of threat in, but this could be an interesting approach if they stick to their outright aggression against a Liverpool side that can be sometimes soft in […]

Iraola Praises Araujo’s Liverpool Contribution: “He’s in a Lovely Place”
It wasn’t all that long ago Ronald Araujo was Barcelona’s most important defender, a player you couldn’t have pried away from the Catalan giants at any price.

Rumour Mongering: Liverpool Target Frankfurt Sporting Director

Have Liverpool Finally Unlocked Alexander Isak?
After last season’s struggle for Alexander Isak to find fitness only to then suffer a broken leg, it was hard for anyone to assess whether the drawn out transfer saga and price was worth it for the highly rated Swedish striker.
