🇫🇷 A STAR IS BORN ⭐

I was scathing about Richard Hughes and FSG after the summer transfer window, so when they get something spectacularly right, the flowers have to be delivered.

Jeremy Jacquet looks an extraordinary piece of recruitment.

Man City's guilt is a 'verdict' not an 'opinion'. Now the uncomfortable questions begin.

⁉️ Pep Guardiola’s legacy
⚖️ City’s response
🇵🇹 Ronaldo’s cultish defenders
🥊 Saudi Arabia’s boxing vanity project

Plenty to get stuck into in this week’s Gibbs’ Game.

Remember the name: Will Wright 🔴

#LFC's injury problems could open the door for one of the most exciting young strikers at the club.

⚽ 12 goals
🎯 6 assists
⏱️ A goal contribution every 81.7 minutes
🔥 Six goals in his last six U21 games
📈 35% shot conversion

🇦🇪 Etihad’s Intervention Raises More Questions Than It Answers

Etihad Airways is perfectly entitled to defend its reputation. What it cannot do is make the findings of an independent commission disappear simply by objecting loudly enough.

🇵🇹 Someone Finally Had the Balls

In my column last week, after watching him play against Wales, I once again asked why nobody in Portuguese football had the balls to tell Cristiano Ronaldo what was blindingly obvious to everyone else.

Apparently, Jorge Jesus did.

🇵🇹 “Portugal’s national team does not exist to help Cristiano Ronaldo reach 1,000 goals.”

🇩🇪 Has the Florian Wirtz debate gone too far?

Jamie Carragher has questioned his place in the side and his #LFC output needs to improve, but the underlying numbers tell a different story, especially when compared with Szoboszlai at No.10.

⚽ Iraola’s Return, Liverpool Must Match Bournemouth’s Fire

#LFC 🆚 #AFCB #PremierLeague Preview

There's something fitting about Andoni Iraola returning to Bournemouth with Liverpool still learning precisely what he demands of them.

⚽ #Bournemouth winning in Europe, #Chelsea entering a new era, and the curious case of JJ Gabriel at #MUFC.

Plus my #PremierLeague predictions before the international break arrives to ruin the fun.

🇭🇺 Liverpool have signed another Hungarian, with Patrik Farkas returning to Anfield.

I’ve taken a closer look at the 19 year old’s numbers, his passing range, pressing and why he could be an intriguing fit for Andoni Iraola.

🟥 Liverpool’s Young Guns Deserve Their Flowers

I wrote my mini-match review last night on my phone in a bar in Edinburgh. A few replies quite rightly asked where the praise was for Trey Nyoni, Lewis Koumas and James McConnell.

⚽ Liverpool Have No Excuses, This Is a Game to Attack

#LFC 🆚 #Fulham | #PremierLeague Preview

There's a spring returning to Liverpool’s stride. Two victories cannot repair everything that went wrong last season, but there are signs of a team beginning to believe in themselves again.

⚽ Great Players, Bad Decisions

This week, I’m looking at Lewis Hall, who I think has become the best left back in the Premier League, the huge potential of Estêvão, and the strange situation Richarlison now finds himself in at Spurs.

⚽ This felt like progress

Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid, and for the first time under Andoni Iraola it really felt like you could see what this team is trying to become.

🇸🇳 Why Lamine Camara looks made for Liverpool

📈 20 tackles in three Ligue 1 games. 27 recoveries. 93.3% pass completion.

I wanted Liverpool to sign Lamine Camara all summer and I had everything crossed that his Chelsea move would collapse.

🇮🇪 Does Katie Taylor Really Need To Be Ranked? 🥊

I woke up this morning to see the debate already raging about whether Katie Taylor is Ireland’s greatest ever sportsperson.

I’m not sure why it matters, and I doubt Katie Taylor cares much either.

⚽ LIVERPOOL LOOK LIKE LIVERPOOL AGAIN

#ITFC 0-2 #LFC | #PremierLeague

For 45 minutes at Portman Road, I remembered what it was like to watch Liverpool and properly enjoy it.

⚽ IPSWICH v LIVERPOOL: TIME TO TAKE CONTROL

#ITFC 🆚 #LFC | #PremierLeague Preview

Two draws, four goals conceded, twice behind. Liverpool’s season needs its first victory tonight and, perhaps more importantly, its first convincing signs of control.

WHO IS LIVERPOOL’S ‘MYSTERY’ ATTACKER? 📊🔍

🇧🇷 William Gomes
🇵🇹 Carlos Forbs
🇩🇪 Jamie Leweling

Three very different profiles, all with numbers that make them worth a closer look as Liverpool scramble for attacking reinforcements.

📊 Liverpool had 69% possession and 562 completed passes, yet Forest created five big chances to Liverpool’s one and had more touches in the box.

‼️ Liverpool Are Too Big For This SH*T

£85m for Cody Gakpo is a serious offer.

⚽ Anfield Return Comes With Familiar Fears

#LFC 🆚 #NFFC - #LIVNOT

Anfield opens its doors for another Premier League season today, and Liverpool ought to approach Nottingham Forest with excitement tempered by a healthy measure of caution.

⚽ Enough Transfer Talk, It’s Time for Football

This week’s Gibbs’ Game column is out now.

The transfer window has swallowed football’s news cycle for long enough. Soon the talking stops and clubs actually have to live with the teams they’ve built.

🇫🇷 BARCOLA JOY, NOW GET OVER IT FAST

Bradley Barcola for £120m is a signing to get excited about. Enjoy it.

Then move on quickly.

Liverpool still have massive issues to solve, a midfielder is needed, the right wing remains unresolved and Cody Gakpo will likely leave.
