Jürgen Klopp has the majority of his Liverpool team against Manchester City already decided, but he’ll have to determine the risk on one of his big calls. The majority of the Liverpool team that takes to the field against Manchester City will take care of itself. We know, for example, that Caoimhín Kelleher will be in goal, and Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté will start at center-back if the latter is fit and available. Alexis Mac Allister, Darwin Núñez and Luis Díaz are among those who are near-certain to be in the starting line-up as well, with each of…

The Los Angeles Lakers have listed LeBron James (left ankle peroneal tendinopathy) as questionable and Cam Reddish (right ankle sprain) and Anthony Davis (bilateral Achilles tendinopathy) as probable for Friday night’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Gabe Vincent, Christian Wood, Colin Castleton and Jarred Vanderbilt all remain out with their respective injuries with no set timetable for a return. James received a treatment on his injured ankle over the All-Star break and was forced to miss the team’s first game coming out of it against the Golden State Warriors. He has been on the injured report ever since and while…

Lakers coach Darvin Ham went viral this week after some fans discovered his assistant coaching papers in an old, abandoned storage unit. The seller, who listed the item on Facebook marketplace, admitted that they had no clue what the documents meant but it didn’t stop them from trying to make a quick buck. “I bought a storage unit from an auction that just so happened to be Darvrin Ham who is also known as the coach of the Los Angeles Lakers,” wrote the seller. The storage unit included a lot of official-looking paperwork, including playbooks, a photo ID of Ham,…

LeBron James and company faced the Kings at home on Wednesday, with Sacramento beating LA 130-120. The Lakers were pretty well balanced after the first quarter, leading by 9 points, though things took a turn in the second. Sacramento outscored the Lakers, 44-20 in the second quarter. This was followed by a tough second half, as both teams weren’t backing down. The Lakers were led by Rui Hachimura, who had 29 points for the night, and LeBron James, who put up 31 points, and 13 assists. A pretty dominant performance by King James, while managing his ankle injury. James left…

Kevin Garnett doesn’t think Bronny James could score a bucket on his father, LeBron James, and his reasoning for it raised eyebrows. During an episode of the Ticket and The Truth podcast, Garnett said James is using steroids. Kevin Garnett: “Bronny get a bucket on Bron right now?” Paul Pierce: “Yeah, he can get a bucket on Bron right now. Yeah, he can get a bucket.” Garnett vehemently disagreed with Pierce’s take. His co-host suggested LeBron won’t be able to move his feet quickly enough, as Bronny is quite explosive. Garnett agreed on the Bronny part but then made the…

The race to win the Premier League is tighter than ever, with Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal within two points of each other, making the battle to be crowned Player of the Year incredibly tough Jamie Carragher has tipped Phil Foden, Declan Rice and Virgil van Dijk to be the three contenders for the Player of the Year award this season.

Liverpool eased past Sparta Prague 5-1 away from home in the first leg of the Europa League Round of 16 tie on Thursday evening. Darwin Nunez scored two goals for the Merseyside club. The 24-year-old Uruguay international striker found the back of the net first in the 25th minute and then in first-half injury time. Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen has noted that although Nunez was on fire against Sparta, he believes that there are still gaps in the striker’s game that are stopping him from fully reaching his potential. The TNT Sports pundit believes that Nunez has the potential…

Sam Allardyce believes that the talented young prospects coming through the Liverpool ranks could persuade Jurgen Klopp to remain at the club beyond this summer. The German announced in January that he would be leaving the Reds at the end of the season and is keen to bow out by leading his side to Premier League glory. Klopp revealed earlier this year that he had ‘run out of energy’ in the Anfield dugout and thus felt it was the right time for him to move on. The ex-Borussia Dortmund boss insisted that it was his duty to leave on his…

Liverpool didn’t so much as put one leg in the Europa League quarter-finals as launch a two-footed lunge into it here against Sparta Prague. And if there was any doubt as to Jurgen Klopp’s pre-match assertion that he is not prioritising competitions in his final Liverpool weeks, it was dispelled over an hour before kick-off when the team sheet dropped. Manchester City might be next up for the Premier League leaders back on home soil but that top-of-the-table clash was not at the forefront of the Reds manager’s thinking at Letna Stadion. Well, the decision not to risk Mohamed Salah…

Jurgen Klopp praised the ruthless manner in which Liverpool punished Sparta Prague’s “risky” approach as his team took a significant step towards the Europa League quarter-finals. Two goals from Darwin Nunez, an Alexis Mac Allister penalty and second-half strikes from Luis Diaz and Dominik Szoboszlai earned the Reds a 5-1 win in their round of 16 first leg in Czechia on Thursday evening. Sparta had caused Liverpool a number of problems during the first half in which Caoimhin Kelleher made several good stops, although they only found the target through an own goal by Reds substitute Conor Bradley shortly after…
