  ANGRY ARNE SLOT WILL WANT TO DROP MOHAMED SALAH BUT LIVERPOOL FANS WON'T EXPECT IT' An "angry" Arne Slot will feel disrespected by Mohamed Salah, says former Liverpool striker Peter Crouch Peter Crouch believes an "angry" Arne Slot will feel disrespected by Mohamed Salah's social media post - but claimed the Liverpool boss won't drop the Egypt superstar against Brentford. Salah is expected to feature in what will be his 442nd and final appearance as a Reds player when Keith Andrews's Bees visit in the last match of the Premier League campaign on Sunday afternoon. Slot's side need to avoid defeat to secure Champions League football next term but question marks have arisen over Salah's involvement following a social media outburst last week, which occurred in the wake of the 4-2 loss at Aston Villa. “I want to see Liverpool go back to being the heavy metal attacking team that opponents fear and back to being a team that wins trophies,...

Liverpool are hosting Brentford in the Premier League this weekend in the final fixture of the 2025/26 season Liverpool have all but secured their place in next season's Champions League, yet supporters will demand a convincing victory to cement their European football. The Reds currently sit fifth in the Premier League table but could still drop into the Europa League spots. This would only happen if the Reds lost and Bournemouth overturned a goal difference deficit against Nottingham Forest - with Liverpool presently holding a six-goal advantage. Arne Slot's side welcome Brentford to Anfield on Sunday afternoon, with the manager declining to reveal whether Mohamed Salah will feature in his starting line-up. The 33-year-old has been outspoken ahead of his Anfield farewell, prompting some calls for him to be left out. The Liverpool icon has clashed with Slot on severa...

Arne Slot pressconference  Mohamed Salah statement, Alisson, Alexander Isak and Liverpool injuries Arne Slot will face the media in a pre-match press conference for the final time this season ahead of Liverpool's clash with Brentford It has been a long, often tortuous season for Liverpool and Arne Slot, but now the end is in sight. The curtain will come down on the 2025/26 campaign on Sunday - unless an unlikely Champions League play-off is needed - after the Reds take on Brentford at Anfield, with Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson saying their goodbyes to the club after the game. Tributes will be paid to the duo who have become Anfield legends, but Slot and his players will know that they have a job to do first and foremost, with Liverpool potentially ending the campaign in fourth should they pick up a victory. The Dutchman will be speaking to the assembled media from 9am, and our very own Ian Doyle and Paul Gorst will be amongst them.

Liverpool latest:  Mohamed Salah agreement reached as star is labelled 'selfish' Mohamed Salah has been called out by multiple Liverpool legends, with the Reds preparing for their final game of the season against Brentford Mohamed Salah finds himself at the heart of fresh controversy as Liverpool gear up to conclude their campaign against Brentford. The Reds are still smarting from a second defeat in three Premier League matches and have endured nearly a month without tasting victory. Arne Slot's second season at Anfield has fallen well short of the standards set by his title-winning first campaign. Great things were anticipated following an outlay exceeding £400million last summer, only for the side to disappoint. Salah could yet provide a farewell present to his club of nine years by helping secure a winning send-off in his final appearance. Yet his most recent comments have provoked criticism from certain pundits as the ECHO examines Wednesday's Liverpool headlines. ...

 Xabi Alonso sent stark warning by ex-Liverpool team-mate after Chelsea appointment Boo Zende, the former team-mate of Xabi Alonso at Liverpool also worked as assistant to Rafa Benitez during his stint at Chelsea Former Liverpool player Bolo Zenden has expressed doubts about Xabi Alonso's decision to take the reins at Chelsea after the ex-Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid boss' appointment was confirmed on Sunday. Zenden, whose 47 appearances for Liverpool from 2005 to 2007 came during Alonso's time as a player at Anfield, was himself a part of Chelsea's coaching staff under interim manager Rafa Benitez in the 2012-13 season. Alonso was many supporters' preferred candidate to take over from Jurgen Klopp in 2024 and was constantly linked with the Liverpool job by European sources since parting ways with Madrid in January, but has now signed a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge to replace the previous permanent manager, Liam Rosenior. The news has arrived with incum...

 Alexander Isak injury update awaited as Liverpool's Champions League picture becomes clear A look at how Liverpool could line up when they entertain Brentford on Sunday in the final game of the Premier League season . The results of Brighton and Bournemouth in the coming days will likely have a big influence on Arne Slot's Liverpool team selection against Brentford next week. The Reds conclude their tired, underwhelming campaign with a visit from Keith Andrews's side and by the time that game kicks off on Sunday, they will know if they have to get a result or not to secure Champions League football. On a run of just one point from the last nine, the prospect of a woefully out-of-form Liverpool needing something from the final day to book their place in the Champions League next term is a worrying one for supporters. But with Brighton being hosted by Leeds United on Sunday before Bournemouth meet Manchester City at home on Tuesday, Slot faces a nervous wait to find out what...

 Jamie Carragher left raging by 'embarrassing' Liverpool star during Aston Villa.. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher was scathing of Alexis Mac Allister's antics during the clash with Aston Villa Jamie Carragher has lambasted Alexis Mac Allister as the Liverpool midfielder was labelled as "embarrassing". The former Reds defender was critical of the Argentinian after an incident with Ezri Konsa shortly before Aston Villa's third goal. Mac Allister was left down in a heap after an off-the-ball altercation with the England defender. The 27-year-old appeared to move his hand toward the centre-back. Konsa responded and grabbed him by the shirt, lifting it towards his face before the Liverpool man went to ground. The incident was checked and cleared with the Villa defender avoiding any action from referee Chris Kavanagh. There was a stoppage while Mac Allister remained grounded with head coach Arne Slot appearing to gesture towards the area in question, tell...

 Liverpool are giving themselves big issue with Arne Slot stance - this isn't good enough Paul Gorst verdict from Villa Park as Liverpool are beaten 4-2 to increase the scrutiny on their head coach The post-match airing of the Champions League anthem, to confirm Aston Villa's place next season, will have felt like insult to injury for a Liverpool side well beaten here. These are halcyon days in this part of Birmingham. Confirmation of their participation in the revamped and hugely lucrative European Cup is now official, with a Europa League final to come next week, featuring a manager famed for his prowess in that particular fixture. The lap of appreciation and the end-of-season party that followed outside Villa Park itself provided all the evidence needed of a club seriously on the up. They are all in it together round these parts. The same can't be said at Anfield just now. For Liverpool - the team Villa leapfrogged into fourth with this 4-2 victory - only tough questions...

Chelsea's Calum McFarlane explains 'clear' way his side could have beaten Liverpool Chelsea interim boss Calum McFarlane felt his side should have been awarded a penalty at Anfield Chelsea interim boss Calum  is adamant his side were denied "a clear penalty" as they ended a run of six successive losses with a draw at Liverpool. Enzo Fernandez equalised an early Ryan Gravenberch opener to earn the Londoners a 1-1 Premier League draw during a dismal encounter on Saturday afternoon. Despite the lack of quality, both teams had goals disallowed in the second half and Liverpool twice struck the woodwork through Dominik Szoboszlai and Virgil van Dijk.

  Liverpool will fix Trent Alexander-Arnold mistake with bargain €25m deal Liverpool have found themselves dealing with an unexpected issue at right-back following the departure of their long-serving academy graduate, who ended a remarkable two-decade association with the club by securing a move to Real Madrid for a relatively modest £10 million fee. At the time, the transfer appeared manageable, with the club hierarchy believing they had already taken the necessary steps to fill the gap. M anager Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes initially felt confident that the situation was under control.
