Arne Slot delivers Liverpool injury update on devastated Giovanni Leoni Giovanni Leoni saw his Liverpool debut ended abruptly after he landed awkwardly in the second half of the Carabao Cup win over Southampton

And while I’m not a doctor, the vibes around Giovanni Leoni’s injury don’t feel good. Hopefully it’s not as bad as it looks, played really well www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/footba...

Liverpool boss Arne Slot slams 'stupid' Hugo Ekitike's 'needless' red card Hugo Ekitike was sent off for removing his shirt after scoring Liverpool's winner in the Carabao Cup third-round clash against Southampton at Anfield

Slot really not happy with Ekitike for the ‘stupid, needless’ red card, and as he says, the third round of the Carabao Cup isn’t exactly the Champions League final www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/footba...

Ekitike 'silly' moment turns Liverpool spotlight straight back to Isak Analysis from Anfield as Liverpool went through to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup thanks to goals from their two centre-forwards, although one was swiftly sent off

So much of the #LFC focus has been on how Arne Slot will accommodate having to choose between two excellent centre-forwards, but after a goal apiece one of them decided to make his job a little bit easier

they really treat it like they’re tattling to Dad Elon who will swoop in and tell them how smart and correct they are, but even that racist AI stopped clock is right twice a day

Absolutely the right thing to do, as is not joining in with those who think they’re qualified to tell others how to feel. No idea how he keeps doing it but when I grow up I think I want to be Arne Slot
