Liverpool legend John Barnes has jumped to the defence of under-fire manager Arne Slot, urging the club to avoid the temptation of appointing former Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso. Despite a mounting crisis at Anfield, the former England international believes the Dutchman deserves more time to fix the team's current slump.
Tensions boiled over for Liverpool following their humiliating 4-0 defeat to Manchester City in the FA Cup. A viral video captured the moment a frustrated Dominik Szoboszlai was led away from the furious travelling faithful by Federico Chiesa, having appeared to shrug his shoulders and gesture for more support from the disgruntled away end at the Etihad Stadium.
Mohamed Salah’s decision to call time on his glittering Liverpool career has sent shockwaves through Anfield, but sensational new claims suggest the Egyptian was forced out by Arne Slot.

Manchester City winger Antoine Semenyo has been left in awe of Rayan Cherki's technical ability, and described the Frenchman as "one of the world's best" after the pair inspired Manchester City to a statement victory over Liverpool.

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has delivered a scathing assessment of his side's mental fortitude following their bruising 4-0 FA Cup exit at the hands of Manchester City. The dejected skipper suggested that his team-mates may have actually stopped fighting as Erling Haaland and company ran riot at the Etihad Stadium.
Liverpool have been warned that replacing Mohamed Salah with just one player is an "impossible" task. Former England winger Chris Waddle stated that it will be difficult for the Reds to recruit a replacement for Salah, as there are currently few players with the striker's abilities. Waddle suggested Liverpool should sign two players at once, such as Three Lions duo Jarrod Bowen and Anthony Gordon.
Pep Guardiola insisted last month that Real Madrid were not his biggest rivals during his time at Manchester City, instead giving that particular honour to Liverpool.

Erling Haaland proved he is back to his best with a hat-trick to dump Liverpool out of the FA Cup. As he showed off the matchball after the 4-0 win, a teammate left a hilariously blunt message, branding him a "big f*cking weirdo" for his relentless scoring.
