Jeremy Jacquet is already veering into Virgil Van Dijk territory. Nobody is talking about the transfer fee now. For @SportingLifeFC. sportinglife.com/football/ne…

You really get the impression that he’s one of those guys where his close friends also have WhatsApp groups without him in them.
🗣️ Mikel Arteta says he has been clipping up footage of other managers leaving the technical area during matches.
He says other coaches leaving the technical area 36 TIMES in 10 minutes without getting a yellow:
"I'm going to put sensors there [ on the touchline ]. There are managers that have the record in the league, 36 times in 10 minutes, leave the touchline, no yellows.
"So I'm clipping ALL of that. So I have a MASSIVE storage of images now.
"So if somebody comes to say, I'm not in the record yet. Somebody else has the record. So let's see."

The first player aged 21 or younger to win Liverpool's Player of the Month since Conor Bradley in Jan 2024 (20).
Only the fourth time in 14 years that the first #LFC POTM has gone to a new signing, after 2016-17, (Sadio Mané), 2017-18 (Mo Salah), & 2023-24 (Dominik Szoboszlai).

This is Antoine Semenyo hitting the second fastest speed of the season against Liverpool - 35.74 km/h.
What’s really interesting about the clip is that Virgil Van Dijk - the chasing defender - hits 34.94 km/h on the same recovery sprint. And wins the challenge.
He’s 35 years old.

In the last month, City have had an offside goal given against United, an Elliot Anderson handball not given against Sunderland, Gravenberch sent off for two soft yellows against Liverpool, and they’ve been found guilty of industrial scale cheating. The Premier League is a farce.

Funny how Liverpool player got booked for demanding a yellow. Haaland came over to get Gravenberch sent off and the ref obliges

Khaldoon Al Mubarak’s rare mis-step in fighting the PL

Rio Ngumoha on Mohamed Salah: “The player I probably learnt the most from is Mohamed Salah when he was at Liverpool. He taught me a lot, especially towards the back end when he knew he was leaving.
“He’d always say to me, ‘Rio, you know you’re a good player, but to reach the top you have to add goals and assists. It will come naturally.’
“He was always going through little things like that with me.”

Could have spoken about Jacquet.
Could have spoken about the impact Araujo has had at RB.
Could have spoken about the resurgence of MacAllister.
Could have spoken about Isak’s 4 goals in 5 games.
But he went on a 8 minute rant on Wirtz because it gets him clicks.
Jamie Carragher on Florian Wirtz:
“I think going forward he’s got a decision to make Iraola. I mean Wirtz wouldn’t be in my Liverpool team. He wouldn’t. When I actually go through the Premier League, I was thinking about this on the way because I thought it was a big game for Wirtz because I thought if he doesn’t produce today, he’s going to have a three week break. By the time we come back to October. Before we know it, it will be Christmas! He has to do something. If you look at the league and players in his positions… forget the top teams… normal Premier League players in the middle of the table who have done more for their clubs. I think of Dewsbury Hall at Everton. No one will say he’s a better player than Wirtz… but every three to four weeks he scores a goal. I watch Morgan Gibbs White last week against Villa. He put in a performance in 45 mins that Wirtz has never done before for Liverpool. I see a goal Buendia scored. They are giving their club bits. I don’t think Liverpool fans have been harsh on Wirtz. I don’t think the football public in general have been harsh at all about Florian Wirtz.”
