Liverpool’s head coach Arne Slot has made a surprise decision over first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker.
Since joining the Reds from Roma in 2018, the Brazilian goalkeeper has won it all at Anfield over the course of the past six years. Unfortunately however, he also has a surprising injury record, currently suffering with a hamstring issue sustained in October.
In the time since, Caoimhin Kelleher has assumed the starting spot and there has been no noticeable drop in quality. Likewise third-choice Vitezslav Jaros was very impressive in his cameo against Crystal Palace and the League Cup tie against Brighton.

With captain Virgil van Dijk entering the last six months of his contract, Liverpool have learned the asking price for his replacement.
Talk of replacing Van Dijk has been rife, as it also has been with the other two big names at Anfield soon to be out of contract, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah.
With no breakthrough in talks between the club and the three star players, plenty of reports are speculating on a number of potential replacements.

Liverpool are eyeing up a brilliant new addition to Arne Slot’s squad. The Italian press have now doubled down on the reports.
Arne Slot is flying this season but quite incredibly, there’s a sense of more to come from his Liverpool team. For one thing, he’s yet to add any of his own players.
The forward line is perhaps the most interesting in that regard. Slot has all of them playing well, despite the fact that all blew hot and cold last season.

Richard Hughes is a busy man ahead of the January transfer window.
Anfield Watch understands the Reds are monitoring the situation of an exciting wonderkid from Paris Saint Germain.
Meanwhile, we exclusively revealed the club have held preliminary talks with the representatives of Milos Kerkez, although that move is understood to be one in mind for the summer rather than the January window.

Arne Slot’s start to life in Liverpool couldn’t have gone much better on the pitch, but there is one massive issue looming that could ruin his whole season.
Despite all of Liverpool’s early season success on the pitch, this season could be disastrous for the club in the long-term.
Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, arguably the club’s three biggest talents, are all out of contract at the end of the season and, as it stands, will leave Anfield for free come the summer.
