On Saturday, 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha made his England senior debut, coming on as part of a fully changed second half eleven for the Three Lions’ World Cup warm-up friendly against New Zealand.

Rumour Mongering: Darwin Nuñez Wants Liverpool Return
If you squint at things in just the right way, there’s a case that Liverpool’s struggles in 2025-26 at least in part point to the value of Darwin Nuñez, with the Reds and in particular winger Mohamed Salah missing having any kind of a hard-grafting presence leading the line and the rest of the attack […]
Konate’s Remarks About Grief, Depression Are An Indictment Of The Club
Ibrahima Konate recently departed Liverpool after both his team and the club were unable to come to terms on a new contract and his current contract was allowed to expire. Konate is now a free agent, most likely headed to Real Madrid instead. That in and of itself is a blemish on the club, because […]
What Will Andoni Iraola Do With Liverpool’s Fringe Players?
This post started as a lengthy reply to the many comments from yesterday’s article about Federico Chiesa possibly getting a fresh start under new Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola. Somewhere around the two hundred word mark, I remembered that I’m actually a writer here in TLO Towers, and fuck it, I can just write a full […]
On Leadership and Goodbyes
Liverpool had a bit of a seismic week: sacking Arne Slot last Saturday and this past Thursday, naming Adoni Iraola as his replacement. Life moves fast but you’d be forgiven if you’ve got a bit of whiplash between all of these happenings. Because Slot had just won the Premier League the year prior in what […]
Exclusive: Alan Shearer on Andoni Iraola’s Liverpool Opportunity
When Liverpool decided to part ways with Arne Slot and bring in Andoni Iraola as their new head coach, a lot of talk focused on style, tactics, and approach.

Iraola Unveiled: New Coach Speaks to the Official Site
Liverpool took no time between sacking Slot to certified rumours to announcing Andoni Iraola as the new head coach of the club.

Federico Chiesa Reportedly To Open Talks With New Manager Iraola
Even in Arne Slot’s first, title-winning season, one of the biggest criticisms was his unwillingness to give fringe and youth players any significant minutes.

Rio Ngumoha Makes PFA Young Player of the Year Shortlist
Rio Ngumoha made 29 appearances for Liverpool in the 2025-26 season, scoring twice and generally being one of the few bright spots for Liverpool fans.

Official: Andy Robertson Signs for Tottenham Hotspur on Free Transfer
We’ve known for some time now that Andy Robertson would be moving on from Liverpool after the 2025-26 season, and for almost as long as we’ve known that we’ve also known that the 32-year-old Scottish left back and Liverpool legend was likely to end up at Tottenham. Today, it’s official. Robertson arrived on Merseyside in […]

Iraola’s First Interview: “Football Is About Emotion, About Passion”
Basque coach Andoni Iraola has officially been announced by the club as the next coach for Liverpool men leading into the 2026-2027 season.

As Liverpool limped towards the end of the 2025-26 season, all the transfer chatter around the club focused on the need to sign two high quality wingers in the summer, and the recent departure of Arne Slot as head coach and imminent arrival of Andoni Iraola isn’t expected to change that.

Virgil Van Dijk Admits Arne Slot Sacking “Was a Surprise”
With players having linked up with their national teams ahead of the World Cup this week, it’s the first time many Liverpool players will have been put in the position of being asked about the managerial changes taking place at the club following a disappointing 2025-26 campaign.

Rumour Mongering: Como 1907 Target Federico Chiesa
After two years at Liverpool, Federico Chiesa has established himself as a firm fan favourite but seems unlikely to ever be more than a fringe player.
