Tomkins Urges Liverpool to Sign Guehi

Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace)
August 2025

Ex-Palace defender James Tomkins has urged Liverpool to sign Marc Guehi, labelling him an upgrade over Ibrahima Konate. Despite Palace rejecting two bids, Guehi remains a target as the Reds continue rebuilding their squad under Arne Slot. Liverpool’s summer saw arrivals like Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Jeremie Frimpong, and Milos Kerkez, yet defensive frailties persist with four goals conceded in two matches. Tomkins believes Guehi’s composure and leadership could transform the backline and complete the club’s £150m double pursuit with Alexander Isak.

Tomkins Questions Arsenal’s Title Push with Eze

Eberechi Eze (Arsenal)
August 2025

Former defender James Tomkins has warned Arsenal that signing Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace might not be enough to secure a Premier League title. The Gunners sensationally hijacked Tottenham’s pursuit, sparking optimism, but Tomkins insists more reinforcements are needed to close the gap. Arsenal have finished second four times under Mikel Arteta despite consistent progress. Eze’s arrival adds flair and depth, but Tomkins notes Liverpool’s ten-point margin last season highlights the scale of the challenge, urging Arsenal to strengthen further to avoid falling short once again.
