Dyche hails “demanding” Forest after stunning 3-0 win at Anfield

Forest beat Liverpool 3-0 away to climb to 16th, earning back-to-back league wins at Anfield for the first time since the early 1960s and becoming only the fourth Premier League side to win there by three or more goals. Goals from Murillo, Nicolas Savona and Morgan Gibbs-White capped a display built on defensive organisation and relentless work-rate, with Dyche stressing that Forest’s intensive training, blocks, and confidence in goalkeeper Matz Sels underpinned a performance where they accepted little possession but executed chances ruthlessly.

November 2025

Isak has reportedly spent around £30,000 on a highly trained Doberman protection dog to safeguard his family after online death threats linked to Sweden’s disastrous qualifying campaign and the backlash over his forced move from Newcastle to Liverpool. The forward, who went on strike to push through a British-record transfer, is said to view the protection dog as part of settling safely on Merseyside under intense scrutiny, with sources describing the animal as both a powerful guardian and calm family companion.

Slot Under Fire As Liverpool Face Make-Or-Break Trip To Forest

Arne Slot
November 2025

Liverpool’s 3-0 collapse at Manchester City has left Arne Slot under growing scrutiny, with pundits warning that another slip-up against struggling Nottingham Forest could deepen an alarming run of seven defeats in ten games and drag the reigning champions further from the title race. Don Hutchison argues Slot must finally settle on a clear system that fits Liverpool’s biggest names during a softer run of fixtures, insisting this stretch against bottom-half opposition is where a convincing plan, consistent line-ups and sustained results must appear or pressure will quickly escalate.

Mane explains why he rejected Van Gaal’s Manchester United pitch

Sadio Mane
November 2025

Sadio Mane has revealed he turned down Manchester United after a direct pitch from Louis van Gaal, admitting he was unconvinced he would play regularly ahead of established attackers and chose to remain at Southampton before later sealing a career-defining move to Liverpool in 2016. Speaking now as an Al Nassr forward, Mane says his younger self needed more development time and clearer backing, recalling how he questioned his place alongside Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie, Angel Di Maria, Memphis Depay and Anthony Martial before deciding Anfield offered the better pathway.

Isak admits tough Liverpool start after injuries and solo training derail momentum

Alexander Isak (Liverpool)
November 2025

Alexander Isak reflected on a difficult few months since his 125 million pound move to Liverpool, explaining that a disrupted pre season, time training alone to force the transfer and a groin injury have all contributed to his failure so far to score a Premier League goal. After a late substitute appearance for Sweden, he said his body reacted well but he is not yet at full sharpness, stressing he will not use setbacks as an excuse and is focused on contributing again against Slovenia as experience helps him handle frustration and rebuild confidence.

Staveley backs Isak to come good at Liverpool and welcomes PSR scrutiny

Alexander Isak (Liverpool)
November 2025

Amanda Staveley said she and Mehrdad Ghodoussi still love Alexander Isak despite the way he forced a record transfer from Newcastle to Liverpool, backing him to recover sharpness after a disrupted pre season and slow start that has produced just one Carabao Cup goal so far. She praised Newcastle’s current attack, said Profit and Sustainability Rules are helpful for fair competition and claimed the club navigated them well, insisting Newcastle can still progress in the Premier League and Champions League while Liverpool enjoy an outstanding forward once Isak’s fitness and rhythm fully return.

Dickov hails Doku as Europe’s standout winger after Liverpool demolition

Jeremy Doku (Manchester City)
November 2025

Doku produced a dominant display in Manchester City’s 3-0 win over Liverpool, constantly beating his marker, stretching the defence and scoring a powerful long-range goal. His relentless dribbling and direct running made him the central attacking threat down City’s left side. Dickov argued that Doku has been City’s most consistent danger this season, even alongside Erling Haaland (Manchester City). He highlighted the winger’s improved end product, his ability to beat double teams and said that, on current form, he cannot name a better winger in Europe.

PGMOL backs VAR: Van Dijk equaliser rightly ruled out

Virgil van Dijk
November 2025

PGMOL confirmed the offside decision that cancelled Van Dijk’s header versus Manchester City was correct, citing Andy Robertson’s offside position and clear ducking action near the goalkeeper as interfering with play under Law 11. Liverpool had lodged a formal complaint. Webb explained the on-field team judged Robertson’s movement affected the keeper’s ability to attempt a save and VAR upheld it as not “clearly and obviously wrong.” The call remained subjective but within protocol, closing Liverpool’s challenge despite ongoing debate over interference thresholds.

Schlotterbeck stalls Dortmund extension amid Kovac rift, Bayern and Liverpool on alert

Nico Schlotterbeck (Borussia Dortmund)
November 2025

Schlotterbeck is reluctant to extend beyond 2027, unhappy with Niko Kovac’s pragmatic style after recent setbacks, per German reports. Dortmund have offered a raise and term to 2030, but the centre-back remains unconvinced as Bayern Munich and Liverpool monitor developments. CEO Lars Ricken signalled talks won’t drag on indefinitely, hinting at a winter decision if tensions persist. Dortmund view Schlotterbeck as a defensive pillar; suitors see immediate fit. Outcome likely hinges on either a renewed role under Kovac or a sale pathway.

Haaland warns Liverpool he’s in peak condition before Etihad clash

Erling Haaland (Manchester City)
November 2025

Haaland claims he’s “never felt better,” citing routines around recovery, diet and focus. With 18 goals in 14 for City and leading the Golden Boot race, he frames Arsenal’s slip as an opening to trim the gap entering the break. City’s attack is calibrated to early runs, second-phase cutbacks and Haaland’s first-time finishing. Liverpool must manage depth behind their line and deny Doku/De Bruyne service zones. Fitness and rhythm—and set-piece margins—likely decide possession-tilt games between pressing teams.
