"I have an idea on the line-up and try to see how they played lately, what we have to do, adjust some things, but it's not just Anfield, all big stages and big games always need big personalities," he said at Friday's press conference. "I've said many times it's not about the skills of the players in the first division and Premier League and the big leagues.

A dramatic late turnaround saw Erling Haaland inspire Manchester City to a crucial 2-1 win over Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday that kept the Premier League title race alive. Liverpool appeared to be on course to earning all three points thanks to Dominik Szoboszlai's stunning free kick before Haaland claimed an assist and then a 93rd-minute winner from the penalty spot to ensure Arsenal's lead at the top was cut back to six points.

Liverpool fans made their feelings crystal clear at Anfield today, greeting Marc Guehi with a chorus of boos as his name was announced in the Manchester City starting lineup. The hostile reception, as reported by James Pearce, marked Guehi's first visit to Merseyside since his high-profile transfer saga, with the Anfield faithful evidently holding a grudge against the defender who slipped through their fingers.

Federico Chiesa hasn't quite lived up to expectations in a Liverpool shirt, and he's set to be one of the big talking points of the summer transfer window. The Liverpool board is open to letting him go, with doubts about his ability to adapt to the Premier League pace, while Serie A sides are already moving in for Chiesa. Chiesa was linked with a move away from Liverpool in January as well.

Obviously, football is a massive sport and people have an opinion, which is natural. People expect you to move on quite quickly, and I don't think that's the case,

The France international has mostly been a key player for Barca down the years, but it seems the club are now less sure about keeping him. According to Fichajes, Kounde could be available for around 80m this summer, with Premier League clubs on alert due to his versatility as one of his most appealing attributes. Kounde can play both centre-back and right-back to a high standard, and that could make him a useful addition for the likes of Man United and Liverpool.

Liverpool are working on plans to replace struggling manager Arne Slot after a disappointing season. Having spent a massive amount on new signings last summer, Slot has struggled to keep the club competitive at the top level. Since October, Liverpool have struggled to keep up pace with Arsenal and Manchester City at the top of the Premier League standings. Although their performances have been impressive in the Champions League, they have failed to have the same impact in the Premier League.

"Everyone is waiting for his commitment, his signature. His contract is ready. But Bayern Munich will not improve their offer," Plettenberg told Sky Sports News. "Upamecano can sign it, [taking him until] 2030 or 2031. There's a release clause included from the summer of 2027. He can earn 20m Euros gross per year and receive a big signing feed, together with his agent. "But Bayern is waiting for weeks, they want a decision soon."

Jarrod is a wonderful footballer, a great character and a hero at West Ham, said former Hammers star Cole, speaking exclusively to Paddy Power. His name will stand shoulder to shoulder with all the great players that have played for the club. He's loved at the club and he deserves at the peak of his career to win silverware and fight at the top level.

Liverpool have agreed a 60m deal for Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet - but the centre-half will not be joining the club in the current transfer window. Subject to a medical, the 20-year-old will move to the Reds in the summer after the clubs reached agreement on a 55m fee plus 5m in add-ons. Personal terms are not expected to be an issue with the France Under-21 international.

Goals from Evanilson and Alex Jimenez put the home side in a commanding position but Liverpool hit back through Virgil van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai to level. However, Bournemouth won for just the second time in 15 matches after Adli fired in with virtually the last kick of the game. Defeat will intensify the scrutiny on Liverpool boss Arne Slot with the Reds likely to fall outside of the Premier League'stop four after Sunday's fixtures.
