Liverpool captain virgil van dijk has named four former and present premier league forwards as his toughest opponents. Olivier giroud, an ex-arsenal and chelsea striker, claims to have always managed to get the better of him: “you think you’ve got a hold of him, that you’ve got him well marked,” van dijk says, “but he always scores in one way or another: with his head, his foot, and his knee. Van dijk said that giroud was not the only striker he mentioned, though, as manchester city’s sergio aguero and erling haaland, as well as arsenal’s gabriel jesus, were all “difficult”…

Salah saved egypt from a potential nightmare against minnows mozambique in their dramatic africa cup of nations opener, thanks to mohamed salah’s last-gasp penalty. Mozambique, which is ranked 111nd in the world, has never won an afcon game in their history, while egypt holds the world record for most afcon victories. For so long, it seemed as if mozambique would hold on to win one of the tournament’s most memorable victories, but the spoils were split by a salah penalty in second-half stoppage time. The pharaohs won their first game in less than two minutes, with salah setting up mostafa…

Before getting stuck in, liverpool’s talisman was less than two minutes into his africa cup of nations campaign. Salah was sent a cross from outside the area against mozambique, and despite completely miss-controlling the ball, he still got an assist. Salah swung his left boot at the ball, and it bobbled through his legs before landing at the feet of nantes striker mostafa mohamed, who fired home. Egypt should win by three points in group b, with the northeast african team finishing first, with mozambique 24th. Ghana and cape verde are also four-time champions in the tournament. Egypt is aiming…

Newcastle is also considering the purchase of a major-name asset as part of its efforts to adhere to the premier league’s profit and sustainability laws. Since the saudi-backed takeover of st james’ park, more than £400 million has been invested in players, with newcastle losing £73 million for the 2022/23 season, with newcastle’s revenues remaining a long shot behind the premier league’s top teams. Guimaraes is considered one of the club’s most valuable players, and spanish outlet fichajes has reported that chelsea and liverpool could activate the brazilian’s release clause. Since joining newcastle from lyon for £40 million, the 26-year-old…

The germany-born u18 international, who was born in england, never made a senior appearance for the reds, but was a regular in liverpool’s youth squads. The 22-year-old had spent the previous two seasons on loan with tranmere rovers, scoring six goals and five assists in 22 appearances for the lower league club. During his time at prenton park, the boy suffered a number of serious injuries, restricting his movements and stunting his growth. Paul glatzel is expected to join swindon before the end of the month, according to the liverpool echo, although the reds are unlikely to profit from the…

In an injury-plagued liverpool back line, not many would have expected virgil van dijk to make the error. Fulham’s fingers were pointed at the dutchman as the club opened the scoring at anfield with its first attack of the season. Perhaps conor bradley could have created a bigger challenge as willian began to dance around in the box, but liverpool’s eventual man of the match wasn’t the cause of the problem. Van dijk could only nod it into the direction of andreas pereira, who found him and let him do the rest. Van dijk may have made a better recovery…

Liverpool manager david ornstein believes that the club will begin major contract negotiations in the coming days. As the reds prepare to enter the final year of contracts for mohamed salah, trent alexander-arnold, and virgil van dijk, he says this. These are, of course, the three most important players at the club, and only alisson becker could argue his way into the mix. Liverpool is entering a critical period as they look to bind the club’s core. ORNSTEIN ON LIVERPOOL FC TRANSFER LATEST I don’t think there was much progress on this before the end of 2023, and to my…

The anfield giants made one of their awe-inspiring comebacks in their midweek match against fulham last night, defeating them 2-1. The entire squad banded together to rescue the team from the brink of failure. Jurgen klopp brought a good-looking side to the table when many key players were absent. Although they conceded a goal earlier in the game, going down 1-0 at halftime, curtis jones and cody gakpo’s second-half goals secured the victory. Conor bradley fulfilled his role admirably in the absence of vice-captain trent alexander-arnold. Liverpool might call back Calvin Ramsay: Trent alexander-arnold has recently sustained a knee ligament…

Jurgen klopp praised the impact of ‘outstanding’ darwin nunez in liverpool’s win over fulham. After winning the carabao cup semi-final first-leg victory at anfield, the reds are now 90 minutes away from winning the world cup. For the home side, it was not all sailing, with willian opening the scoring for the cottagers in the 19th minute. Liverpool really burst into life when klopp introduced nunez and cody gakpo in the 56th minute. Nunez ran amok and assisted curtis jones’ equalizer, before gakpo’s intervention was sparked by his cross from the byline. Fulham keeper bernd leno saved the uruguay international…

Fulham’s surprise opener has been virgil van dijk’s error in the caraboa cup semi-final. When tussling with fulham’s raul jimenez, the veteran dutch centre-back struggled to cope with a bouncing ball. Pereira is able to sneak in behind and play a ball to former chelsea and arsenal forward willian. To push fulham forward, he takes a fine turn before slotting the ball into van dijk’s legs. Jamie redknapp told sky sports at halftime: ‘uncharacteristically, it’s virgil van dyk who makes the error,’ jamie redknapp said. I’ve always said, ‘if you’re a centre-back and the ball comes into your area and…
