Billy Hogan is proud of the club’s commercial growth, but insists the end goal remains trophies. Despite the continued dearth of silverware, there is little doubt Liverpool are a club moving in the right direction. Back-to-back Champions League participations culminated in a 3-1 loss to threepeaters Real Madrid in May, and after finishing comfortably fourth in consecutive seasons, the Reds are tipped by many to be Manchester City’s principal challenger for the Premier League title this year. Three games in... Читать дальше...

After Liverpool finish against Leicester, a lot of fans—and James Milner—will be turning their attention to Celtic vs. Rangers. For Liverpool fans the focus this weekend will, of course, be on the club’s league tie against Leicester City that kicks off Saturday’s Premier League slate. After that, though, more than a few might be turning their attention towards Scotland. There, Rangers are taking on Celtic on Sunday in with the Liverpool connections obvious in the first Old Firm match of the season... Читать дальше...

OPINION Liverpool have got off to a perfect start in the 2018/19 Premier League season with three wins from their first three games putting the Reds top of the table. A comprehensive opening day win over West Ham was followed by a 2-0 away victory over Crystal Palace and a narrow 1-0 home triumph over Brighton. One of the more impressive aspects of Liverpool’s play so far this season has been their defence, with three clean sheets to start the season providing a stark contrast to some of...

BBC pundit Alan Shearer has lauded Liverpool defender Joe Gomez for his “powerful” display against Brighton at the weekend, saying that the youngster deserves an England call-up for his early season form. Gomez helped the Reds to their third consecutive win to start the season as they ran out 1-0 winners over the Seagulls, with Mohamed Salah scoring the only goal of the game. Shearer has now named Gomez as his ‘Featured Player’ in his official Premier League Team of the Week... Читать дальше...

Mohamed Salah's strike against Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield on Saturday evening ensured the Egyptian maintained an incredible scoring record on home soil.

The disagreement between the star and his federation is getting increasingly ugly. Having worked in private to secure reforms to the way the Egyptian FA deals with player security and preparedness following a disappointing World Cup only to run up against resistance and even attempts to smear him publicly, Mohamed Salah’s public push back against his federation has intensified further today. After Salah’s agent talked on Monday about requests for “guarantees regarding Mohamed’s wellbeing while with the national team” having been ignored... Читать дальше...

OPINION It is no secret that Liverpool’s midfield is one of the best in the league, but one of the prime reasons behind the success is down to first team figure James Milner. Milner has been excellent for the Reds in the last three matches, and it would not be a surprise to many to see him as the first name on Jurgen Klopp’s team sheet every week. He is one of the most consistent yet underrated players in the Liverpool squad, but his latest comments are sure to leave Klopp in a bit of a sweat in such an important season. Читать дальше...

Liverpool are in talks with Stade de Reims over a season-long loan exit for winger Sheyi Ojo, according to the Liverpool Echo.  The regional newspaper claim that the newly-promoted Ligue 1 side have also held positive discussions with the speedster’s entourage, as the club look to bring in attacking players before Friday’s deadline. The Echo report that an agreement is yet to be reached, but the Reds are happy to strike a loan exit for the 21-year-old wide man, who is unlikely to see any first-team action this season.

Go behind the scenes of Liverpool's 1-0 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion with the latest edition of Inside Anfield.

New Liverpool signing Xherdan Shaqiri has admitted that he is capable of playing in every position along the front line and hopes that his versatility will earn him chances at the club. The 26-year-old – who is on £100,000-a-week [Spotrac] – has only appeared as a second-half substitute in the Reds’ season opener against West Ham United, but he seemed to be confident of his own ability in attack after playing in various positions along the front line in the pre-season friendlies.

Liverpool were back at it at Melwood on Tuesday as they began gearing up for the weekend trip to Leicester City.

OPINION Liverpool cruised to a third straight victory thanks to a scrappy 1-0 win over Brighton on Saturday, but there was one asset of theirs that was especially highlighted. This game, along with the previous two, indicate just how much depth the Reds have in their midfield, especially if Jurgen Klopp is starting Georginio Wijnaldum ahead of £40million signing Fabinho. Klopp started the Dutchman alongside new signing Naby Keita and James Milner, with the first making way for Jordan Henderson in the 67th minute. Читать дальше...

The 21-year-old winger could be heading to the newly promoted Leigue 1 side for the coming season. With the transfer windows closed for Premier League and Serie A sides, the options for players in need of a permanent or loan switch are limited heading into the final week of August but for those who will need to head elsewhere they do still exist. For Liverpool, one forgotten name following pre-season and the close of the domestic window is Sheyi Ojo, with the 21-year-old still at the club but not being in—or even... Читать дальше...
