Bellingham Jude Bellingham feels the Liverpool supporters who booed Trent Alexander-Arnold at Anfield were just "doing the fans' job" as the former Red endured a miserable return to Merseyside. Alexander-Arnold was roundly jeered after he appeared as an 81st minute substitute at his former home, as his new club slipped to their first Champions League defeat of the season Alexis Mac Allister headed home the game's only goal following a free-kick from Dominik Szoboszlai, with

Mac Allister Alexis Mac Allister's dad says that they must respect Liverpool but admitted it is 'nice' to see links with the biggest clubs in the world, following speculation over interest from Real Madrid. Carlos Mac Allister has spoken out ahead of the Reds' showdown with the Spanish giants on Tuesday but insists there was no contact with the La Liga outfit following reports of interest. The Argentine was the subject of transfer speculation last season and during the summ

Trent Via echo Trent Alexander-Arnold was part of a Real Madrid contingent who placed a wreath at the memorial of Diogo Jota outside of Anfield ahead of their Champions League clash with Liverpool on Tuesday night. Alexander-Arnold was flanked by los Blancos coach and former Reds star Xabi Alonso, team-mate Dean Huijsen and the legendary Emilio Butragueno as the La Liga club paid tribute to Jota, who died in a car accident with his brother Andre in July. Since Jota's death i

Firmino Roberto Firmino has had his say on Liverpool’s new-look attack as he backed his former club to soon find their best form. The Reds underwent something of a squad overhaul in the summer as they embarked on a £450m transfer spending spree off the back of their Premier League title win. Liverpool brought in eight new senior players and broke the British transfer record twice as they signed Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz in £125m and £116m deals respectively. Meanwhile

Gravenberch Ryan Gravenberch hopes a little inside knowledge from Ibrahima Konate can help Liverpool halt Kylian Mbappe's remarkable scoring run. The Reds entertain Real Madrid in their fourth game of the Champions League opening stage on Tuesday evening in a rematch of last season's encounter in the competition, which Liverpool won 2-0. Mbappe missed a penalty that night and, despite at that point having netted nine goals in his first 18 games since arriving from Paris Saint

Gerrard There were positives everywhere when the final whistle sounded at Anfield . But for Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard , one of the biggest outcomes of the 2-0 win over Aston Villa was what it did for two players in particular. Liverpool and their head coach Arne Slot went into Saturday's match under big pressure after a run of six defeats in their previous seven games in all competitions - and staring an unwanted club record directly in the face. Had they fell defeat

Paul Merson Paul Merson says Liverpool "underestimated" how much it would miss Trent Alexander-Arnold when the England international moved to Real Madrid at the start of the summer. Arne Slot's side has been in mixed form at the start of the new campaign but did win against Aston Villa on Saturday . Prior to that, it was on a run of six losses in seven games. Integrating new players, after a summer of big spending, has proven to be a longer process than some might like. And

Slot and Xabi Xabi Alonso wasted little time in turning his attention to Liverpool following Real Madrid’s victory over Valencia. The Reds will take on the La Liga giants on Tuesday night in their fourth league phase Champions League fixture. Liverpool have six points from their opening three matches in this season's competition, after victories against Atletico Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt. Arne Slot's side had lost four consecutive Premier League matches before beating

Van Dijk Virgil van Dijk has hit back at Wayne Rooney's comments over a lack of leadership at Liverpool. The Reds captain branded the Manchester United legend's analysis as "lazy criticism". Liverpool ended a run of four successive Premier League defeats on Saturday night as they beat Aston Villa 2-0 at Anfield to move up to third in the table, level on points with second-placed Bournemouth ahead of their trip to Manchester City on Sunday afternoon. Such a sequence was th

Unai Emery Unai Emery was left to rue ‘huge mistakes’ as Liverpool returned to winning ways in the Premier League against his Aston Villa side on Saturday night. The Reds clinched a 2-0 victory thanks to goals either side of half-time from Mohamed Salah and Ryan Gravenberch. The opener was something of a gift as goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez passed the ball straight out to Mohamed Salah , who made no mistake as he stroked home into the unguarded net for his 250th goal for the

Salah Mohamed Salah admits he has not been happy with his season after helping Liverpool end their miserable Premier League run. The champions avoided suffering a fifth successive top-flight loss for the first time since 1953 when they beat Aston Villa at Anfield on Saturday evening. Mohamed Salah opened the scoring in first-half additional time after capitalising on a mistake from Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez before Ryan Ryan Gravenberch netted a deflected second s

Shearer Alan Shearer has predicted Liverpool will fall to a fifth straight defeat in the Premier League today, with Paul Merson’s verdict not much better for Arne Slot's side. The Reds host Aston Villa later , and will be desperate to end their awful run of form. Having been knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Crystal Palace on Wednesday, Liverpool has now lost six of its last seven games in all competitions. That’s a run that includes a four-game losing streak in the league,

Van Dijk Liverpool skipper Virgil van Dijk pointed the finger at one of his teammates following the Reds' failure to secure victory in their most recent encounter against Aston Villa. Liverpool welcomes Unai Emery's outfit to Anfield this weekend as the club seeks to restore momentum to their league campaign. Back in February, Mohamed Salah put Arne Slot's side ahead at Villa Park, but the hosts swiftly hit back with a rapid-fire brace from Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins

Arne Slot via echo In an effort to stop a rot that now stands at six defeats in seven matches in all competitions, Arne Slot felt it was right to give his big guns the night off for Wednesday night's Carabao Cup exit at home to Crystal Palace. A makeshift Liverpool squad that saw 10 changes and contained zero first-team players on the bench was subsequently beaten 3-0 by a Palace side full of regulars. The likes of Mohamed Salah , Virgil van Dijk and Florian Wirtz were all

Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola believes Bournemouth's early season form shows the strength in depth of the Premier League . And he says that his side and Liverpool had 'changed that dynamic'. Bournemouth head to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday two points above City in the table – sitting second, four points behind leaders Arsenal – after losing only one of their opening nine games. With Sunderland also in the top four after a superb start following promotion,

Wirtz Liverpool have been told the arrival of Florian Wirtz has disrupted their midfield balance - but the £116million cannot be blamed for the Reds' struggles. Arne Slot's side have lost six of their last seven games in all competitions and already stand seven points adrift of title favourites Arsenal in defence of their Premier League crown. Wirtz has had a tough start to life at Anfield since arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer and has started only two of the la

Slot Arne Slot admits he will not be averse to taking Liverpool back to basics if required to drag them out of their ongoing slump. But the Reds boss claims not to have yet seen any reason to change the tactical approach of his struggling side. Liverpool slipped to their sixth defeat in seven games - their worst such run since 2009 - when a much-changed team was dumped out of the League Cup 3-0 at home by Crystal Palace on Wednesday night. The Premier League champions have

Guehi Steve Parish has confessed that Marc Guehi now holds all the cards in choosing his next destination following his failed switch to Liverpool. The England centre-back was poised for a switch to Anfield late in the transfer window, only for Crystal Palace to scrap the deal on deadline day. Currently, Guehi is expected to depart Selhurst Park as a free agent when his contract expires. Liverpool have consistently been touted with a swoop, while German powerhouses Bayern M
