Arne Slot Arne Slot believes fourth place is a fair reflection of Liverpool's first half of their Premier League season - admitting he isn't thinking of reeling in leaders Arsenal or second-placed Manchester City right now. The defending champions extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to eight games with a goalless draw with Leeds United on New Year's Day but it was viewed as a missed opportunity to go five points clear of Chelsea in fifth and to within four point

Daniel Farke Leeds United manager Daniel Farke has questioned the yellow card for Ethan Ampadu that has handed Liverpool’s near rivals Manchester United a potential boost in the race for Champions League qualification.

Arne Slot Without even kicking a ball, Mohamed Salah ensured he was the main topic of conversation when Liverpool last faced Leeds United. Arne Slot, though, was just as concerned about matters that preceded the Egyptian's explosive post-match outburst.

Jordan Henderson shakes hands with Steven Caulker The January transfer window opens on Thursday and it will be intriguing to see what, if anything, Liverpool do next month.
