A busy offseason might allow some flexibility for the Pittsburgh Steelers in this week’s NFL draft. Head coach Mike Tomlin said as much in Monday’s pre-draft news conference, which indicates that Pittsburgh could have the luxury of drafting the best player available come Round 1 on Thursday night. “We’ve been very active in free agency and that makes you really comfortable as we lean in on draft weekend,” Tomlin said. “So that we’ve addressed a lot of needs and don’t feel overly thirsty in any particular area. I just think that’s a good feel going into the weekend.” The Steelers…

Pep Guardiola joked that he would be putting his exhausted players in a fridge after dragging themselves into another FA Cup final. But the concerning sight of John Stones gasping for air midway through the first half, before being substituted at the interval, was no laughing matter. Instead it underlined why Guardiola and his players were so angry with the scheduling. England star Stones looked deeply uncomfortable after a sprint to chase down Nicolas Jackson and it was no surprise to see Ruben Dias replace him for the second period. For long spells at Wembley City looked shattered, the physical…

During their time in the Premier League, Swansea City were able to unearth some of the best hidden striking talent ever to grace the top flight. Having secured the services of Michu the season before, the Welsh side further bolstered their attacking options with the acquisition of Eredivisie’s top scorer, Wilfried Bony. The Ivorian striker proved to be a huge success during his initial 18-month spell in SA1, and he most certainly scored some goals for Swansea. Following their League Cup success over Bradford City in the 2012/13 season, Michael Laudrup had led the Swans to European football in the…

Jurgen Klopp was delighted to have his 24-year-old Liverpool player ‘fully back’ after his display against Fulham today. Today wasn’t a perfect result for Liverpool. It wasn’t anything special. But it’s a result Jurgen Klopp can be pleased by. The Reds got things over the line and at the end of the day got an important three points in a tough away fixture. What more could you ask for? Especially from a side that was very much rotated to begin with, and perhaps that was felt most acutely in the first-half, when Liverpool struggled to create chances. In that first-half,…

Jamie Carragher likened Liverpool’s 25-year-old defender to Steven Gerrard in the game against Fulham on Sunday afternoon. Liverpool got back to winning ways against Fulham on Sunday afternoon with a relatively comfortable 3-1 victory. It wasn’t a perfect performance from Jurgen Klopp’s side, but it was much improved and there’s definitely a lot to build on for the Reds. With Liverpool currently sitting level on points at the top of the Premier League table, it’s all still to play for in the Reds’ last five games of the season. Lifting the Premier League title may be unlikely. But it’s not…

Liverpool responded to Arsenal’s win over Wolves on Saturday by securing three points at Fulham, thanks to goals from Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota. It has been a damaging week for Liverpool and Arsenal, both in terms of the Premier League title race and crashing out of Europe. But they answered anyone questioning their characters by ensuring that Manchester City won’t be running away with the title just yet! Before the game against Fulham, Jurgen Klopp surprised many by opting to bench his star man Mohamed Salah, but Diogo Jota returned to the XI. The 27-year-old has been…

Jurgen Klopp masterminded a potentially pivotal 3-1 win over Fulham to keep hopes of a second league title under his management of Liverpool alive. The Reds had gone into the half-time break on level footing with the hosts, however, courtesy of some choice defending, leading to some fair critique from Jamie Carragher on comms. “Liverpool don’t keep clean sheets like Arsenal,” the former Red spoke on Sky Sports’ commentary. “They have to get better defensively even when the manager moves on.” The Merseysiders have the joint-second-best defence (with Manchester City) in the Premier League as of Sunday evening with 32…

It goes without saying that it matters extremely little that Dominik Szoboszlai was ineffectual in his brief cameo against Fulham. Yet, a stinker was indeed had by the Hungarian international, as was noted by the Daily Mail’s Lewis Steele on X (formerly Twitter) after the 90 minutes had passed. According to stats compiled by Sofascore, the 23-year-old failed to complete any defensive contributions and only managed one pass (out of five attempted) in 11 minutes. Szoboszlai needs to improve quickly In the grand scheme of things, no one really cares if Szoboszlai had a bit of a pants performance if…

During Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Fulham on Sunday, one new statistic emerged, placing one of the Reds’ rising stars in elite company. As pointed out by Michael Reid on X (formerly known as Twitter), midfielder Harvey Elliott’s assist for Ryan Gravenberch to score the side’s second was his seventh in all competitions since the start of February. This, he points out, puts the 21-year-old in the same company as one of football’s most renowned playmakers, Manchester City maestro Kevin De Bruyne. Out of all Premier League players, only the Belgian has laid on more assists in all competitions during this…
