As the season’s end draws nearer for Liverpool, it’s time to start assessing the overall performance of individuals. Although they’ve blown up their chances of winning multiple trophies over recent weeks, it’s by and large been a good year for the Reds. It was admittedly a low base to start from, but most of the first-team squad have improved dramatically from last season. One of those to show the biggest return to form has been captain Virgil van Dijk. Looking dangerously close to being past his best in 2022/23, Van Dijk was heavily criticised by just about everybody. But the…

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has made a claim about Unai Emery’s Aston Villa side after last night’s draw at Villa Park. Aston Villa came from behind to secure a vital point against Liverpool on Monday evening. The Villains trailed 3-1 heading into the 80th minute but two late goals from substitute Jhon Duran ensured the points were shared in the Midlands. Leon Bailey even had an opportunity to grab all three points for Villa but was denied by a brilliant stop from Alisson Becker. It’s fair to say that Villa created the better quality chances on the night as they…

Liverpool are set to be dealt a double transfer blow this summer with two reported centre-back targets closing in on moves to Newcastle United. The Reds face an uncertain summer transfer window with Jurgen Klopp leaving and Arne Slot coming in, but Liverpool’s eagerness to bring in at least one new central defender is certain. They have subsequently been linked with a whole host of players over the past six months, including Sporting CP duo Goncalo Inacio and Ousmane Diomande, as well as Feyenoord’s David Hancko and Lutsharel Geertruida. Liverpool have also been linked with two cost-effective signings in Fulham’s…

Liverpool’s squad has shown great character this season, manager Juergen Klopp said after the Merseysiders drew 3-3 at Aston Villa as he bid farewell to fans in his last game on the road. Liverpool looked set for all three points in Klopp’s penultimate game, leading 3-1 before substitute Jhon Duran’s goals in the 85th and 88th minutes made the teams share the spoils yesterday. Klopp was not only serenaded by the travelling Liverpool fans who paid homage to his nine-year tenure with the club but also received applause from the home crowd as he headed down the tunnel at Villa…

Seems like Liverpool could be eyeing up a cheeky move for Brazilian winger Raphinha this summer. The lad has been tearing it up in La Liga with Barcelona, but with the club facing some financial woes, he might just be up for grabs. And with the Premier League heavyweights like Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea sniffing around, things could get interesting. That is as per liverpool.com who claim he could cost suitors as much as £50m. CaughtOfffside reports Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea have all indicated a desire to sign Raphinha. It is stated that Barca will still look to make a…

Los Angeles Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka reportedly wants a “grinder” to be the next head coach of the franchise. “In Pelinka’s conversations with officials across the league, the term ‘grinder’ keeps coming up in the GM’s description of an important characteristic of the Lakers’ coach, sources said,” ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Dave McMenamin wrote. Pelinka and the Lakers moved on from head coach Darvin Ham after the Denver Nuggets knocked the Lakers out of the playoffs in five games in the first round this season. It was the second straight season that Denver ended Los Angeles’ playoff run. Ham,…

The Atlanta Hawks winning the NBA Draft Lottery could benefit the Los Angeles Lakers, who are looking for a major upgrade following their first-round exit. The Lakers’ past trade deadline target, Dejounte Murray, sent a cryptic message after the Hawks stunningly bagged the No. 1 pick despite having just a 3% chance heading into the lottery. “NBA OFF SZN Bouts To Be Crazyyyyyy!!!! Lol 👀😅🍿,” Murray posted on X following the NBA Lottery results on May 12. The Lakers held advanced talks with the Hawks centering on a Murray deal in the weeks leading to the last February trade deadline.…

Like those of us watching at home or at the stadium, Jurgen Klopp couldn’t quite believe the manner in which Aston Villa rescued a point in their 3-3 draw against Liverpool tonight. The home side earned a share of the spoils thanks to two late goals from substitute Jhon Duran, the second of which could be politely described as freakish, as Moussa Diaby’s shot struck the Colombian and looped over Alisson Becker and into the net. Speaking to Sky Sports after the match, the Reds manager rued the concession of that quickfire brace from the 20-year-old and was baffled by…

Liverpool contrived to squander a 3-1 advantage against Aston Villa, conceding twice in quick succession to draw 3-3. It was certainly an entertaining way for Jürgen Klopp to finish his away-day assignments at the club, but even with nothing at stake, he won’t have been thrilled by the capitulation — and nor was Jamie Carragher. Likely successor Arne Slot will need to tackle this issue. Liverpool might be a little bit on the beach, but even when the Premier League title was on the line, Klopp struggled to exert any real control over games this season. In a way, Klopp’s…

Jurgen Klopp’s penultimate game in charge of Liverpool ultimately ended in disappointment as the Reds threw away a two-goal lead in a 3-3 draw with Aston Villa. Liverpool were a goal ahead at the break after an Emiliano Martinez own goal and a Cody Gakpo effort cancelled out Youri Tielemans’ strike. The Reds appeared to be on course for back-to-back wins after Jarell Quansah netted his first Premier League goal, but efforts in the 85th and 88th minute from Jhon Duran saw Liverpool surrender victory. Real Madrid ‘love’ Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold and are keeping a close eye on his…
