If you ask Liverpool fans, they will tell you Alisson Becker is the best goalkeeper in the world. In his absence through injury, Caoimhin Kelleher is deputising in between the sticks for Jurgen Klopp, including during the 1-1 draw against Manchester City on Sunday. But, according to Jay Bothroyd, he claimed that Alisson Becker isn’t as good as Manchester City’s number one, Ederson. The former Arsenal player also feels Liverpool’s main man, who has won every trophy with the Reds, is ‘overrated on the ball’, as he told The Football Show on Sky Sports. Well, you don’t lift the Premier…

Liverpool head into tomorrow’s game against Sparta Prague knowing they have one foot already in the Europa League quarter-finals. Of course, it would be wrong to write the Czech side off completely, and Liverpool won’t. But a 5-1 away win has rendered the second-leg little more than a formality. Surely the Reds can’t lose it from here. As a result, it feels likely that Jurgen Klopp will heavily rotate his side at Anfield. With Manchester United to come in the FA Cup on Sunday, there’s no let up for the squad. Some are going to need a rest. With injuries…

Ian Wright has explained how Liverpool ace Darwin Nunez can reach the next level and potentially become an elite striker, while also urging the 24-year-old not to become ‘dispirited’ when things don’t go his way. Liverpool spent an initial £64million when signing Nunez from Benfica in summer 2022, though the deal has the potential to rise to a whopping £85m through add-ons. Jurgen Klopp’s side were convinced to strike that huge deal after Nunez had managed 34 goals in 41 matches for Benfica the previous season. The centre-forward has proven to be one of the most exciting and unpredictable players…

Jamie Carragher and Kate Abdo were involved in an awkward exchange over her relationship with her boyfriend during CBS Sports’ Champions League coverage. The pair were pitchside at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night alongside Thierry Henry and Micah Richards, when Carragher suggested Abdo should wear the Arsenal shirt he had been asked to put on. Earlier in the show, the former Liverpool defender got Richards to don the shirt after the latter revealed he grew up supporting Arsenal. But at the end of the shootout, it was Carragher’s turn to wear the shirt after being asked to do so…

Sunday was a timely reminder of just how effective Luis Diaz can be for Liverpool. After bursting onto the scene at Anfield two years ago, Diaz has had a mixed last couple of seasons for the Reds. Last year – his first full campaign with the club – was ruined by injury, meanwhile he’s struggled to fully get going in 2023/24. But against Manchester City last weekend the Colombian shone. Okay, it wasn’t a perfect performance and Diaz should have won the game for Liverpool. But it was nice to see him going at, and beating, Kyle Walker. We haven’t…

With NFL free agency set to kick off this week, the Next Gen Stats analytics team at NFL.com examined the top needs for every AFC team. For the Pittsburgh Steelers, Next Gen Stats thinks quarterback, offensive tackle and cornerback should be a top priority for the Steelers in free agency. “Mitchell Trubisky has been released, and Mason Rudolph could be headed elsewhere in free agency, making Kenny Pickett the last quarterback standing on a team that is ready to compete right now. Based on what Pickett has shown, Pittsburgh shouldn’t enter 2024 without ample competition at the position,” Next Gen…

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been a dominant franchise in the NFL since the 1970s. During that time, they have won an incredible six Super Bowls while having only three head coaches. They have always been that way, loyal to those who are loyal to them and the model they have built is unparalleled to any other team, in any other sport. The Rooney family has owned the team since its inception in the early 1920s. They were not good in the beginning, in fact, they were downright awful. They were originally called the Pittsburgh Pirates, like the baseball team and…

Former Pittsburgh Steelers safety, Troy Polamalu transcended the Steel City and earned fans all over the NFL thanks to his incredible gameplay. Polamalu seemed to have a sixth sense when it came to reading offenses. It was like he could intuit what they were calling before they called it and was known to make adjustments to the defense on the field based on what he saw. These adjustments were initially without the permission of his coaches until they realized that what he was doing was clearly working. If you go back and watch highlights of Polamalu during his 12 years…

The Pittsburgh Steelers were very active throughout the 2023 free agency period. The organization had multiple holes to fill on offense and defense, and Omar Khan and Andy Weidl aggressively brought in veterans to address those needs. Some, like Isaac Seumalo, worked out, while others, like Patrick Peterson, did not. The hit-and-miss nature of importing current NFL players is a cruel reminder of why the Steelers have traditionally stayed away from free agency. Khan is demonstrating that he is willing to break with tradition in Pittsburgh, even if it gets him red-flagged by his contemporaries. He is playing by his…

The Pittsburgh Steelers had enough of the struggling, inept offense in 2023 and made a historic move by firing then-Offensive Coordinator Matt Canada. Ahead of the 2024 season, the Steelers brought in former head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, Arthur Smith, to take charge of the offense. With former first-round draft pick Kenny Pickett’s future uncertain, it will be up to Smith to determine what role Pickett should play. The new coordinator is expected to shift the direction the offense has been going in and rediscover the kind of success the franchise is used to. Smith will be tasked with…
