7 h. ago Man Utd go into derby in better form than Liverpool, now pressure is on Arne Slot to make £450m gamble work

NEVER before have the reigning Premier League champions changed half of their first-choice starting line-up immediately after winning the title. And never before has any club splashed out as much as £452.5million in one transfer window. So Liverpool, who broke the British transfer record twice this summer, are in uncharted territory.

There is no grand PSR conspiracy against Unai Emery’s side. They should be challenging Newcastle or Tottenham for fifthFour wins in a row, seven games unbeaten and suddenly life does not seem so bad for Aston Villa. They are up into mid-table and if a 2-0 victory over Feyenoord in the Europa League will not quite live in the memory in the way last season’s games against Bayern Munich, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain do, a return to Rotterdam at least evoked the glory days of 1982.It will be a while yet before the frustration at missing out on the Champions League fades, but there does now seem to be a gathering recognition that Villa have a decent chance of winning the Europa League, potentially adding Istanbul’s Besiktas Park to De Kuip as a venue where they have won a European trophy.

The broadcaster’s opening week of coverage was not without its gaps and glitches but it aimed high with an impressive array of expertsThere was a new look and feel to the Women’s Champions League this week as live matches on Disney+ arrived. With the streaming platform embarking on a five-year deal, the tournament is in intriguing territory with a paywall, and audiences will be hoping for some Disney magic to justify their subscriptions.Football-wise, whether it was Barcelona’s masterpiece, Twente holding Chelsea or Melchie Dumornay’s second goal arrowing past the Arsenal defence, the entertainment level was thankfully more Mulan than Mulan II, but could the same be said about the coverage?

4 d. ago Liverpool go to work and Diogo Jota is not there. Why wouldn’t that affect them? | Max Rushden

We know so little about players’ personal feelings. It means everyone’s analysis of the game is fundamentally superficialA couple of weeks ago, Liverpool seemed on course to win the Premier League for the second season running and probably the Champions League too.

At the same time perennial second-placed, high-performance cowards Arsenal, who have an excellent defence and now at least two very good players in every position, started to close the gap. Arise Sir Mikel. Continue reading...
