Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Alisson

47 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Liverpool lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Tempers go at Liverpool

Hugo Ekitiké was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Lewis Koumas is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Liverpool is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Ryan Gravenberch falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Market

Liverpool say no — this time

The offer from Swindon Town for Paul Atkinson was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Real improvement from Edward Mitchell at Liverpool

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Edward Mitchell is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Alisson

54 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Liverpool lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

Talles Magno puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Liverpool, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Miloš Kerkez in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Liverpool this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Liverpool turn down Notts County for Nicholas Michalski

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Words at Liverpool training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ryan Gravenberch is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Only the photograph left for Jack Smith

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Jack Smith will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Liverpool the goodbyes have quietly begun.
