Michael Oliver has been branded a “disgrace” by disgruntled Liverpool supporters, with “corruption” claims made on the back of the Reds seeing big calls go against them early on against Manchester United. The Anfield faithful felt the game should have been stopped for a head injury before Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring inside two minutes on Merseyside.

Chelsea are reportedly 'in discussions' to appoint former Liverpool director of scouting and recruitment Dave Fallows to a senior sporting leadership role at Stamford Bridge. The 45-year-old spent 12 years with the Reds, departing in October 2024, and played an instrumental role in signing the likes of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, who would spearhead the club's first Premier League title win in 30 years.

Liverpool's Premier League rivals have been warned, by Danny Murphy in an exclusive interview with GOAL, that it is "just a matter of time" before Alexander Isak hits top form. The Sweden international striker became the most expensive player in British football when completing a £125 million ($168m) transfer to Anfield, but has registered just one goal for the Reds.

Liverpool have been dealt a blow in their attempts to sign Marc Guehi as Crystal Palace reportedly plan to sell the defender in January, amid interest from Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. The England international was on the verge of joining the Reds in the summer, only for the Eagles to pull the plug at the last minute as they struggled to sign a replacement in time.

Crystal Palace head coach Oliver Glasner has confirmed that club captain Marc Guehi will not sign a new contract, and he will leave Selhurst Park next year. The 26 year-old's deal expires on June 30, 2026, when he can leave the Eagles on a free transfer.

David Beckham and Gary Neville have stunned English football by completing the signing of former Liverpool and Sunderland forward Fabio Borini for Salford City.

Former Scotland midfielder Don Hutchison has urged Liverpool boss Arne Slot to drop summer signing Jeremie Frimpong, claiming the Dutchman’s performances have been far below the club’s standards.

The gap between Liverpool and Manchester United is wider than it has ever been during the Premier League era and Alan Shearer has underlined this by only selecting one United player in a combined starting XI with their fierce Anfield rivals.

Ruben Amorim has urged Manchester United fans to calm their expectations of young goalkeeper Senne Lammens, after the 23-year-old shined on his Red Devils debut against Sunderland prior to the international break. The United head coach suggested that the Belgian has not yet earned comparisons with club legend shot-stoppers such as Peter Schmeichel, but that he showed "a lot of composure" and could start against Liverpool on Sunday.
