Eddie Howe had reason to be wary.

4 d. ago Victor Osimhen fires Galatasaray to victory on hellish night for Liverpool

Reigning Premier League champions and league leaders may be held to higher standards but concerns grow for Liverpool. Arne Slot’s side suffered back-to-back defeats after falling to Galatasaray in Istanbul. Their performance may trouble Liverpool’s head coach greater than the result.Liverpool were short on ideas and again suspect defensively as they were beaten by Victor Osimhen’s first-half penalty. Defeat could have been heavier had the Galatasaray striker not squandered two clear openings early in the second half and it needed the 62nd minute introduction of Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak to inject direction into the Liverpool attack. The visitors were almost reprieved by the award of an 89th minute penalty for a suspected foul on Ibrahima Konaté but even that did not go their way. Referee Clément Turpin overturned his decision after being sent to the pitch-side monitor by the video assistant referee. Continue reading...

8 d. ago Isak debacle shows Newcastle remain stuck outside elite despite Saudi windfall | Jonathan Wilson

Bewilderment at letting a prolific forward join a Premier League rival has bolstered the sense of the club as a diminished entityThere is another world, not so very different from this one, in which Newcastle took the pragmatic decision early in the summer that Alexander Isak was leaving, there wasn’t much they could do about it, and they might as well make the best of it: selling players at a profit, after all, is just what clubs on the rise have to do.That was always true to an extent, but has become especially so in a world governed by profitability and sustainability rules (PSR). They could have taken the £125m, bought players at their leisure, and the sense going into the season would probably have been one of quiet satisfaction at a decent summer. Continue reading...
