- Morning, Reds! 👋 Crazy to think it's been almost a month since Arne Slot's side last played at Anfield, but what a fixture we have in L4 this afternoon! 💥
- Liverpool will be aiming to end a run of four league visits to Stamford Bridge without winning (three draws, one defeat). The Reds are also out to avoid losing consecutive top-flight matches for the first time since April 2023, after defeat at Crystal Palace last weekend.
- 'Slot has a contrasting style to Enrique, but in adding the pace of Alexander Isak, Hugo Ekitike and Jeremie Frimpong, especially, he wanted more of what PSG possess.' @chrisbascombe.bsky.social on how Liverpool used the Champions League winners as a 'blueprint' for their summer recruitment
- 🗣️ Paul Merson on Marc Guehi/Alexander Isak: "I think it's unfair that people who complained like Alexander Isak got the move, while Guehi did not. But I don't think he will ruin his image by behaving in the wrong way now." [Sportskeeda]

- Should Liverpool be allowing Manchester United to have a clear run at Matheus Cunha? 🤔
- 🗣️ Fabrizio Romano on LFC-linked Dean Huijsen: "There have been many rumours from Spain, but at the moment Real Madrid have still not decided whether they want to invest in a centre-back or not. That’s why, at the moment, Dean Huijsen is leaning towards a move internally, in the Premier League."

- A return to Anfield on Sunday for the Premier League leaders, with West Ham the visitors to Merseyside. The Reds won 5-1 when these two sides met in L4 in the Carabao Cup earlier the season - the same result at the weekend would be nice! 😎
- Harry Kewell on Virgil van Dijk 🗣️ "I think he's, he's been huge ever since he arrived at Liverpool. "His stature, his size, the way he plays. I like him. "I've always liked him as a player, and I think he's probably up there as probably the best centre back the Premier League's ever seen."
- We're not gonna argue with Ferdinand on that one! 😉 #LFC
- After Paul Tierney sat in the VAR room and missed the James Tarkowski red card last night, feels like a good time to revisit Klopp's comments about him 🗣️

- Reposted by Empire of the KopThere was a flurry of activity over the Hillsborough Law last week. This is what happened, as I understand it tonyevans92a.substack.com/p/message-to...
- Let's not give them a sniff, Liverpool - would be nice to extend that 12-point lead even further between now and Sunday evening! 💪 #LFC
- No replacement right-back if Trent leaves this summer? 😮
- Can’t pretend this doesn’t hurt 💔
- 🚨 Trent Alexander-Arnold is in talks over a five-year-deal with Real Madrid | #LFC 🟥 Worth more than £200k-a-week 🟥 Major signing-on bonus 🟥 Final details of the move still need to be agreed [via @migueldelaney.bsky.social]
- Reposted by Empire of the KopWould love him to join us. Would be a brilliant 3rd option and will likely feature a lot for us next year. Really wanted to sign him before we went to Bournemouth, but I'm sure Hughes is a massive fan.
- 🗣️ Fabrizio Romano on Dean Huijsen: 💬 "Liverpool have also been tracking Dean Huijsen. He's one of the players they appreciate and they've already made some contacts to understand how the release clause works."
