Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has shared his thoughts after seeing his team booed off on Saturday after a disappointing 1-1 draw with Burnley in the Premier League. Dominik Szoboszlai wasted the chance to give the Reds the lead when he missed a penalty before Florian Wirtz opened the scoring. However, Burnley hit back through Marcus Edwards to earn Scott Parker's strugglers a point at Anfield.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot has admitted that the club’s hierarchy is "aligned" on the challenges facing his squad following the devastating injury to Conor Bradley. The Northern Irish defender faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines after a controversial incident involving Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli during the heated 0-0 draw at the Emirates. With the January window open, Slot has addressed the growing clamour for defensive reinforcements as his side prepares to face Burnley.
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot is facing fresh scrutiny over his treatment of Federico Chiesa, with the winger's former mentor branding the Dutchman's selection policy a "mystery." As the Italian international closes in on a sensational return to Juventus this month, questions are being asked about why a player perfectly suited to the Premier League was left in the cold at Anfield.
Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has explained to GOAL how Jurgen Klopp could make a sensational return to Anfield. The German coach left Merseyside in the summer of 2024, and saw successor Arne Slot savour Premier League title glory in his first season at the helm. A stunning retracing of steps for Klopp has been speculated on, with it impossible to rule anything out.
Arne Slot can't catch a break right now. Barnsley at home in the FA Cup should have made for a comfortable Monday evening for the under-pressure Liverpool boss. Dominik Szoboszlai had other ideas, though. Having earlier broken the deadlock with a thumping strike from distance before Jeremie Frimpong netted his first goal at Anfield with an equally emphatic finish, the Hungarian gifted Liverpool's third-tier opponents a goal just before the break with one of the most inexplicable errors you'll ever see on a football field.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot has moved to quell fears surrounding Rio Ngumoha after the teenage sensation was forced off during the FA Cup victory over Barnsley. The 17-year-old winger produced another dazzling display at Anfield before limping off in the second half, but the Dutch boss insists the issue is nothing more sinister than fatigue as the youngster adapts to senior football.
Liverpool’s passage to the fourth round of the FA Cup was marred by a moment of controversial flair from Dominik Szoboszlai, who has been fiercely criticised by Barnsley head coach Conor Hourihane for a "disrespectful" piece of skill inside his own penalty area. The Hungarian’s casual backheel gifted the visitors a route back into the game, sparking anger from the opposition dugout and earning a stern rebuke from his own manager, Arne Slot.
Arne Slot has vowed that he will not be making the same mistake twice at Liverpool, with the Reds boss taking valuable lessons from an FA Cup giant-killing in 2025. Some 12 months ago, the then-runaway Premier League leaders suffered a humbling third-round defeat to Plymouth - who were bottom of the Championship at the time. They are now preparing to face Barnsley in 2026 and will avoid any sweeping changes.
Liverpool’s goalless draw with Arsenal at Emirates Stadium saw the Reds snap a 600-game streak that had extended across 16 years. The defending Premier League champions grew into the game in north London, keeping the current table-toppers pegged back for long periods, but failed to test David Raya in the Gunners’ goal with no shots on target.
The world watched on as Arsenal hosted Liverpool in a potential changing of the guard in English football on Thursday night. The Premier League leaders had the chance to stretch their lead atop the table to eight points, with the reigning champions down on their luck and jockeying for a Champions League position. But the game didn't live up to the hype.
While still coming to terms with Liverpool's inability to defend a 2-1 lead with less than three minutes of stoppage time to go at Fulham on Sunday, Virgil van Dijk insisted that there was no reason for the Reds to approach their midweek clash with Arsenal with any sort of trepidation. "First of all, we will recover from this and, from Tuesday on, we will definitely look at the strength that they have," the Dutchman said of the Premier League leaders.
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has admitted he partly agrees with comments that his team are 'drab' and 'boring', as the Reds prepare for their huge showdown with Premier League leaders Arsenal on Thursday night. The Dutchman has come under criticism for how his team play, and while there were no real arguments from the manager, he does claim he would word it differently.
Arne Slot has confirmed that Hugo Ekitike faces a late fitness test ahead of Liverpool's showdown with Premier League leaders Arsenal. The forward has yet to train fully since missing the recent draw with Fulham, leaving his participation in doubt. The Reds boss admits his side have been too inconsistent this term but believes a win against the "complete package" of the Gunners could spark a revival.
We reached the midway point of the Premier League season on Thursday night, with Arsenal holding a very promising four-point advantage at the top of the table as the Gunners look to end an agonising, 22-year title drought, and their chances of doing so have only increased after Saturday's hard-fought win at Bournemouth. Of course, Manchester City are very dangerous chasers - as Arsenal know to their considerable cost - and Aston Villa will obviously be hoping to stay in touch even after their chastening 4-1 defeat at the Emirates on Tuesday.
Liverpool are reportedly close to finalising a £43m ($58m/€49.3m) transfer for Ecuador international Joel Ordonez, who has impressed at Club Brugge. The Reds defence has come under fire during their unsuccessful title defence and reinforcements are being sought after they missed out on Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi in the summer.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot channeled former Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou as he insisted that his Reds team remain "who we are" after their disappointing goalless draw with Leeds United, as he rallied against poor refereeing decisions, and pointed to a number of examples in which his players "stayed on their feet".
