Mo Salah watches on Arne Slot said the decision to leave Mohamed Salah on the bench in the 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain was down to Liverpool being "in survival mode" at the Parc des Princes Goals from Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia gave PSG a healthy advantage in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final tie. After being dropped from the starting line-up, Salah was left as an unused substitute as Slot brought on young midfielder Trey Nyoni after introdu

Mo Salah Former England winger Chris Waddle feels Liverpool should move for a pair of Three Lions wingers to fill the void left by the departure of Mohamed Salah , even though he admits that will be an almost impossible task. Salah will call time on his storied Liverpool career in the summer, with the Egyptian having picked up two Premier League titles, the Champions League , the FA Cup , the League Cup , the Club World Cup and four Premier League Golden Boots during his inc

Arne Slot Arne Slot admits the result of Saturday's 4-0 humiliation to Manchester City "speaks for itself" as Liverpool exited the FA Cup at the quarter-final stage. An Erling Haaland hat-trick and a strike from Antoine Semenyo was enough to secure passage to the semi-finals of the Cup at the expense of Slot's Reds, who now face Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-final of the Champions League on Wednesday night. Having not played for two weeks - when they were beaten 2-1 by

Slot and Salah Arne Slot insists he has no regrets with how he has handled Mohamed Salah this season after the Liverpool forward confirmed his intention to leave at the end of the campaign. Salah revealed in a social media video late last month that this campaign would be his final one as a Reds player, bringing the curtain down a decorated period that lasted nine years where he won two Premier League titles and the 2019 Champions League among several other honours. The

Gordon Peter Crouch believes England international Anthony Gordon has the "selfish streak" to replace Mohamed Salah at Liverpool next season. Salah confirmed last week he will leave Anfield at the end of the season on a free transfer after nine years at the club during which he has become their third-highest goalscorer in history. Liverpool have subsequently been linked with a raft of potential new signings on the right flank as they look to strengthen their attacking optio

Wirtz Florian Wirtz believes his difficulty adjusting at Liverpool has made him stronger as he outlined the importance of Germany boss Julian Nagelsmann during his first term on Merseyside. Wirtz, who briefly became the most expensive signing in club history when he joined from Bayer Leverkusen June, initially struggled to replicate the Bundesliga form that made him a £116m Anfield arrival . However, Wirtz has generally begun to get to grips with the English top flight and

Wirtz Florian Wirtz can use the criticism aimed at him during his difficult opening months at Liverpool to become even better player. That is the view of Wirtz's German national team manager Julian Nagelsmann, who watched the Reds star deliver a virtuoso performance with two goals and two assists in Friday's 4-3 win over Switzerland in Basel . Wirtz's display, which featured two superb goals from long range, was further evidence that the 22-year-old has put his initial strugg

Klopp and Salah Jurgen Klopp believes Mohamed Salah is irreplaceable and that it will be impossible for Liverpool to buy a player like him this summer. Salah announced on Tuesday (March 24) that he will leave the Reds at the end of the season after they reached an agreement over the final year of his contract. Liverpool signed the Egyptian from Roma in June 2017 and Klopp was his manager for seven seasons. Under the German, Salah won the Champions League , the Premier Le

Klinsmann German football legend Jurgen Klinsmann has said he is confident about Florian Wirtz’s chances of success at Liverpool. Florian Wirtz is nearing the end of his debut campaign at Anfield - and the Kop have liked what they’ve seen so far. The playmaker, who is currently on international duty with Germany, didn’t quite hit the ground running for Arne Slot’s side after his £116m move from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer. But his performances since the turn of the year

Keane Mohamed Salah's decision to announce his Liverpool departure could come back to haunt him, according to Roy Keane. The ex-Manchester United captain believes the announcement could backfire and lead to a sour note if Liverpool's season continues to fall below expectations. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher suggested that the Egyptian talisman will be in line to receive a 'big send-off', though he hopes it will come in Budapest at the Champions League final rather

Gerrard Steven Gerrard has told Liverpool the only way they can replace Mohamed Salah is by signing someone who is 'box office'. Salah is by buying one of the best wingers in the world. Salah signalled the end of an era at Liverpool when he announced on Tuesday night that he will leave the club at the end of the season. The forward will depart on a free transfer following talks with Anfield chiefs, ending his trophy-laden nine-year stay on Merseyside. Talk has already comme

Chiesa Gennaro Gattuso says he agreed to send Liverpool forward Federico Chiesa home from the Italy squad for the sake of their long-term relationship. Chiesa , who has previously turned down a handful of call-ups from Gattuso during his time as a Liverpool player, was set for his first international outing since 2024 during the March break after being restored to the Italy set- the former Juventus star, who played the final 13 minutes of the Reds' 2-1 defeat at Brighton on

Arne Slot Former Liverpool winger Mark Gonzalez admits "it's just not working" for Arne Slot - but says a troubled sophomore season as head coach won't define his time at Anfield .

The Reds have FA Cup and Champions League quarter-finals to look forward to on the other side of the international break, agai

Gerrard Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has explained why he believes the Reds have struggled in the Premier League this season after their defeat to Brighton. The Reds were on the receiving end of a 2-1 loss at the Amex Stadium in the Saturday lunchtime kick-off. Danny Welbeck scored both goals for Brighton, with Milos Kerkez on the score sheet for Liverpool, as Arne Slot’s side dropped points yet again in the race for Champions League qualification. Gerrard appeared as a p

Alisson Alisson Becker has sparked fears that he could face a lengthy spell on the sidelines by stating that he will be "out of action for a while" in an Instagram post. Alisson has been ruled out of Saturday's trip to Brighton and Hove Albion , where he will be replaced by Giorgi Mamardashvili, and has also pulled out of the Brazil squad for the forthcoming international break. He recently missed the first leg of the Champions League last-16 tie against Galatasaray in Istan

Kerkez Milos Kerkez believes Liverpool have set the template for the remainder of the season as he aims for a Champions League final in his adopted home of Hungary. Kerkez was an outstanding performer as the Reds overturned a first-leg deficit to thump Galatasaray 4-0 at Anfield on Wednesday night and set up a quarter-final next month against holders Paris Saint-Germain. While the left-back was born and raised in Serbia, he moved to Hungary when he was 15 and subsequently ple

Gary Lineker Gary Lineker has waxed lyrical about Liverpool winger Rio Ngumoha and compared him to Kylian Mbappe following an impressive individual performance in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Tottenham . Ngumoha, 17, was handed his first Premier League start by Arne Slot for the game against Spurs at Anfield. And it's safe to say the teenager grabbed the opportunity with both hands, standing out for the Reds on the left-hand side and looking dangerous almost every time he had t

Szoboszlai Dominik Szoboszlai has urged Liverpool fans to stick with the team in "difficult times" - after many left in the closing stages of Sunday's draw with Tottenham Hotspur. The Reds were held 1-1 by struggling Spurs and were also subjected to boos following the full-time whistle Szoboszlai scored his 11th goal of the campaign in the first half with another free-kick for his growing collection but relegation-threatened Tottenham secured a 90th-minute equaliser via for
