GOAL rates all the Reds on show at the Red Bull Arena as Arne Slot's side showcased their invaluable strength in depth
Liverpool’s perfect record in this season’s Champions League remains intact, even if their performance in Wednesday night’s 1-0 win over RB Leipzig was far from flawless. The Reds started and finished the game at the Red Bull Arena poorly but got the job done thanks to two players who probably wouldn’t have been used had everyone been fit.
Darwin Nunez, standing in for Diogo Jota in attack, proved unusually decisive, scoring the game’s only goal when he arrived into the six-yard box to tap in Mohamed Salah’s downward header, while Caoimhin Kelleher once again showed why he’s considered the best No.2 in world football by making a couple of crucial late saves that first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker would have been very proud of.
Below, GOAL rates all of the Reds on show in Germany as Liverpool leaned on their impressive resilience and strength in depth to make it 11 wins from 12 games in all competitions so far this season ahead of Sunday’s crunch Premier League clash with Arsenal at the Emirates…

Goalkeeper & Defence
Caoimhin Kelleher (7.5/10):
Got away with making a mess of an early attempted clearance but made a couple of decent stops from well-struck drives in the first half before essentially earning Liverpool the win with a couple of great saves in the final quarter.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (6.5/10):
No issues from a defensive perspective and, as usual, caused problems with his passing. It was Trent's cross-field ball to Gakpo that led to Liverpool breaking the deadlock. Far from his most influential display, though.
Ibrahima Konate (6.5/10):
Hadn't been remotely troubled before losing the ball in a horribly dangerous area and was lucky to be bailed out by Kelleher.
Virgil van Dijk (7.5/10):
His usual commanding self and very nearly scored from a Tsimikas corner.
Kostas Tsimikas (7/10):
A couple of loose passes from the Greek here and there but his crossing was a constant threat. No surprise to see him effectively create the opener with a great ball for Salah.

Midfield
Ryan Gravenberch (7.5/10):
Yet another impressive showing from the Dutchman, who really does look like the real deal as a defensive midfielder. Work rate is excellent and is great on the ball, with this wonderful ability to just glide past opponents.
Alexis Mac Allister (7/10):
Inexplicably booked for diving after being bundled over in midfield but grew into the game and struck the bar with a fine curling effort from the edge of the area after a sublime one-two with Dominik Szoboszlai.
Dominik Szoboslzai (7.5/10):
Still doing so much of the dirty work for his team but also showed his quality going forward, linking superbly with first Gakpo and then Mac Allister to create two big chances.

Attack
Mohamed Salah (6/10):
Registered an assist with the goal-bound header that Nunez poked home but was pretty quiet overall. Indeed, he was the least ineffective of the front three by some distance, so Slot was right to replace him midway through the second half – no doubt with one eye on Sunday.
Darwin Nunez (7.5/10):
Started up front in the absence of the injured Jota and led the line very well, proving a real pain in the neck for Leipzig's defenders. Deserved his goal and probably should have had a penalty too.
Cody Gakpo (7.5/10):
Retained his spot on the left wing ahead of Luis Diaz and was once again a real livewire in his preferred position. Flashed an effort wide after a terrific run into the centre and also saw an instinctive, close-range effort blocked by Peter Gulacsi.

Subs & Manager
Luis Diaz (6/10):
Came on for Salah just after the hour mark but made little impact aside from one late strike that was easily saved.
Curtis Jones (N/A):
Replaced Nunez as Slot sought greater solidity in midfield with Liverpool losing control of the game late on.
Andy Robertson (N/A):
Took over at left-back from Tsimikas for the final 15 minutes of normal time.
Joe Gomez (N/A):
As against Arsenal, the versatile defender was brought on in place of Alexander-Arnold as Liverpool looked to shut up shop.
Arne Slot (7/10):
It was by no means pretty but Slot will be delighted with his side, who are developing a nice habit of managing to win without playing well. He'll also be thrilled by the performance of Nunez up front, particularly if Jota won't be ready to return up top against Arsenal.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Inter Miami's selection for the Club World Cup stems from FIFA’s decision to award Concacaf an additional slot in the tournament. This extra spot was granted as the U.S. is hosting the tournament. While MLS had no direct say in which team would represent the league, it provided FIFA with potential candidates, leaving the governing body to make the final decision. Now, reported that Inter Miami, the 2024 Supporters' Shield winner, would claim the coveted spot.
DID YOU KNOW?
For the first time in its history, the FIFA Club World Cup will feature 32 teams, marking a significant expansion from the previous format, which hosted just seven teams. The revamped tournament, scheduled from June 15 to July 13, 2025, will be held across multiple venues in the United States. FIFA has allocated 12 spots to European clubs (UEFA), six to South American teams (CONMEBOL), and four each to clubs from North America and the Caribbean (CONCACAF), Asia (AFC), and Africa (CAF). The remaining spot is reserved for Oceania (OFC). Some of the confirmed teams for the competition include Manchester City, who qualified as the 2022-23 Champions League winners, and Real Madrid, who earned their spot as winners of both the 2021-22 and 2023-24 Champions League titles. Inter Miami, guided by the legendary Messi, will now join these European powerhouses in their quest for supremacy.

Chelsea are interested in signing a £35m-rated Premier League defender this summer, according to reports.
Chelsea transfer rumours
Chelsea announced Enzo Maresca as their new manager earlier this week, with the Italian putting pen to paper on a five-year deal at Stamford Bridge, which includes the option of a further year.

The former Leicester City boss takes over an inflated Chelsea squad that was only just beginning to find its feet under Mauricio Pochettino. Maresca must now put his own stamp on the squad, which will likely include a big shift in personnel this summer, both on the incoming and outgoing fronts.
So far, the west Londoners have signed Tosin Adarabioyo to a four-year deal following a free transfer from Fulham and have been linked with plenty others.
Chelsea would reportedly like to sign Dayot Upamecano from Bayern Munich this summer, according to Bundesliga journalist Christian Falk:
"Yes, it's true: Chelsea would like Dayot Upamecano," said Falk. "It's not really clear yet whether he'll have a chance next year. Vincent Kompany is looking at everyone, but would Bayern let him go? That would probably cost a lot of money. At the time, Bayern paid €42.5m to RB Leipzig."
Elsewhere, the capital outfit are also said to be eyeing a move for Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin this summer. In another potentially huge deal, Chelsea are reportedly set to make an offer for Manchester City's Julian Alvarez in the next few days but are expected to face competition for the Argentine from Atletico Madrid and PSG. It has also been claimed that the Blues are plotting a move to sign Benjamin Sesko.
Chelsea chiefs talk about signing £35m Premier League defender
While a lot of the names linked with Chelsea recently have been at the top end of the pitch, a fresh defender has recently been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
GiveMeSport recently provided an insight into Chelsea's transfer plans for the summer, mentioning centre-back as an area the club were potentially looking to improve. Left-back is also a priority area for the west Londoners, with Todd Boehly and co. said to be eyeing a young player who can operate in an inverted role. In their search for a full-back, Chelsea have looked at Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez, with the 20-year-old said to have already been discussed by the club.
In terms of a fee for the Cherries star, GiveMeSport states Bournemouth value Kerkez at around £35m – over double the fee they paid AZ Alkmaar for him last year. During his time in England so far, Kerkez has made 33 appearances for Bournemouth, providing one assist in the process.
Despite his limited experience, Kerkez has already been backed to have a great career by former teammate Mat Ryan, who said last year:
“Milos is a great boy. A crazy dude, in a good way. He is always positive and smiling,” Ryan said.
“Hopefully he can develop even further in England and become even more mature. He is aggressive, powerful and has so many qualities.
“A unique skill set. Bournemouth is going to get stronger because of him. Milos still has a great career ahead of him.”
Manchester United have held Old Trafford talks over a deal to sign a new Premier League star, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Man Utd eyeing Casemiro replacement
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS are preparing for their first summer transfer window in charge of the Red Devils and have recently decided that Erik ten Hag will remain as manager heading into the 2024/25 campaign.
The full focus will now be on the transfer market, with a new centre-back and striker appearing to be of interest to Ratcliffe and Ten Hag. Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial will officially depart at the end of the month, and there have been plenty of rumours about Everton centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite and Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee.

Alongside a defender and forward, though, a midfielder could also be on the Old Trafford agenda, especially if Casemiro leaves. There have been plenty of rumours over an exit for the Brazilian, who has already said his Man Utd goodbyes following the FA Cup win over Manchester City.
Earlier this week, Romano said that Man Utd have been making enquiries over potentially signing a new midfielder: “I’m hearing that in the last 24-48 hours, [United] made some enquiries on the market over a new midfielder. They are exploring options in midfield especially in the case of Casemiro leaving, which remains a strong possibility.
“United are assessing options and have started to make moves to strengthen their midfield – we will see who it’s going to be and what United are going to do, but for sure they are going to be really busy in the next weeks, so keep an eye on potential new arrivals at centre-back, left-back, striker, and midfield.”
He didn’t mention any specific incoming names, until now.
Man Utd hold internal talks for West Ham’s Edson Alvarez
Taking to X on Wednesday evening, Romano once again stated that Man Utd are considering signing a replacement for Casemiro and have now held Old Trafford talks over a deal for West Ham United’s Edson Alvarez. Ten Hag is a fan of the Mexico captain, who is considered a “key player” at the London Stadium.
Alvarez made the move to England and West Ham in a £35m deal from Ajax last summer and went on to make 42 appearances in his first season for the Hammers, scoring two goals and providing two assists. The holding midfielder did pick up a whopping 17 yellow cards, which resulted in two separate Premier League suspensions and one in the Europa League.

As can be seen, Alvarez outshone Casemiro in a number of areas last season, so the 26-year-old, who made more than 100 appearances under Ten Hag at Ajax, could prove to be a shrewd signing. Whether or not the Red Devils firm up their interest with a bid remains to be seen, but it looks as if a deal is one to keep an eye on.

Savinho's in-swinging cross from the right evaded the Southampton defenders on the edge of the six-yard box and made its way to Haaland at the far post. Aaron Ramsdale was there, but the goal was at Haaland's mercy, with more than enough space to find the net if only he'd put it on target. Yet he hit the ball at too wide of an angle and it flashed past the post.

Haaland has never been one to let misses affect his confidence or mentality. He is the only Premier League player so far this season to reach double figures and is the nailed on favourite to win a third consecutive Golden Boot come May. That has only previously been achieved by Alan Shearer (1994-95, 1995-96, 1996-97) and Thierry Henry (2003-04, 2004-05, 2005-06).
As they look to comply with the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules, Nottingham Forest have reportedly been offered a Champions League-winning defender in a swap deal for current star Murillo.
Nottingham Forest transfer news
The Midlands club are among the sides who must sell players this summer to comply with FFP, with players such as Orel Mangala and Moussa Niakhate reportedly heading for the exit door at the City Ground. And whilst those sales will undoubtedly go a long way towards avoiding any punishment from the Premier League this summer, Forest could still be left bidding farewell to Murillo in the coming months.
The central defender enjoyed an excellent campaign last time out and was one of the biggest standouts in the Midlands. Still just 21 years old, the interest of some of Europe's biggest clubs is far from surprising, but one offer could yet benefit Forest this summer.

According to The Guardian, Chelsea are set to offer Trevoh Chalobah plus cash to sign Murillo, who Nottingham Forest value at a hefty £70m this summer. The Chelsea academy graduate won the Champions League with the Blues in 2021 when they defeated Manchester City, but now finds his place in doubt at Stamford Bridge.
Trevoh Chalobah
The recent arrival of Tosin Adarabioyo has only sparked more questions over Chalobah's Chelsea future, potentially allowing Forest to land an instant replacement for Murillo. A central defender with plenty of experience at 24 years old, Chalobah would be an ideal arrival for Nuno Espirito Santo this summer.
"Fantastic" Chalobah can replace Murillo
At his best, Chalobah is a Champions League level defender, and if Forest lose Murillo this summer, he makes perfect sense when it comes to finding a replacement. Given Chelsea's admiration for Murillo too, Forest could land a simple swap deal to bring them out the other side of their PSR threat with a ready made replacement and cash in their pockets.

The numbers certainly show that Chalobah would be capable of stepping into the potential void left behind by Murillo, whilst also highlighting just how much he struggled for minutes at Chelsea last season.
It's quite the turn of events, given the praise of former manager Thomas Tuchel at the start of Chalobah's Chelsea career, saying via Football365: “Fantastic. He gets all the praise and it’s well deserved. Two excellent matches. He played against Arsenal and Tottenham in friendlies, then 120 minutes on Wednesday, then 90 today and scores. It’s fantastic these things happen in sports. A perfect day for him."
From that initial game time, the academy graduate has fallen down the pecking order and is arguably in desperate need of a summer exit.

And following a 2-1 loss to West Ham, the Dutchman was relieved of his duties.

Fernandes and Amorim never shared the dressing room at Sporting, as the midfielder left the Lisbon club for United before the manager took over. However, the midfielder has keenly observed Amorim’s achievements from afar and believes that his connection with players sets him apart as a coach capable of inspiring success.
WHAT FERNANDES SAID
In an interview with Fernandes saidFor me what stands out for me is the connection he has with players. When the manager is going from your club in the middle of the season with all the things they have still to win, you see the way they say goodbye to him, the way they make him feel part of the team and the way they treat him, it shows he's a great character and he is someone that gives his all to the players."
Fernandes added that Amorim’s influence is particularly evident in how he shields players from criticism and supports them through challenges, a trait Fernandes hopes Amorim will bring to Old Trafford.
"I have seen many moments where players were struggling and he goes to the press conference to defend his players to give them the best opportunity to shine," he said. "He had a really young team so he needed to do that, hopefully, he can do the same with us."

The Dutchman will be hoping to make an instant impact in a struggling frontline to hand Erik ten Hag the ultimate boost ahead of next season.
Following such a disappointing season going forward last time out, Zirkzee may not be the only fresh face in United's attack next season, either. According to Turkish journalist Ali Naci Kucuk (via FourFourTwo), Manchester United are set to make an official offer to sign Baris Alper Yilmaz in "the coming days" as they look to follow up on Zirkzee in perfect fashion.

Doing enough to earn the interest of both United and Tottenham Hotspur nonetheless, the Galatasaray right-winger could now be on the move this summer. The deal could quickly turn into a bargain, too, with the Turkish club reportedly demanding just €30m (£25m) to sell the 24-year-old in the coming months.
"Nuisance" Yilmaz would be an instant Antony upgrade
For a far cheaper price than what they paid for struggling winger Antony, Manchester United could welcome an instant upgrade in the form of Yilmaz. He proved that he can compete with the very best by handing Virgil van Dijk a difficult game in Turkey's last-eight defeat, earning a "nuisance" tag by an impressed Sam Tighe, and at 24 years old, he should only get better.
With seven goals and 12 assists to his name in all competitions for Galatasaray last season, the Euros was just an extension of a solid season in Turkey for Yilmaz, who could now get the ultimate reward.
Compare his season with Antony, who managed just three goals and two assists in all competitions, and there's only one player that Ten Hag should turn towards for Manchester United's Premier League attack next season.
Aston Villa’s transfer business has accelerated in recent days. Unai Emery has secured the return of Jadon Philogene from Hull City, just 12 months after he departed the Midlands to join Hull City.
Not only that, but it looks as though Moussa Diaby is set to join Saudi outfit Al-Ittihad in a deal worth in excess of £46m, which should give the manager plenty of flexibility in the transfer market.
Aston Villa's Moussa Diaby
Diaby will need to be replaced, that’s for certain. Might Emery turn to La Liga for a player who could make him forget all about the Frenchman?
Aston Villa eye move for La Liga sensation
Villa’s interest in Girona winger Viktor Tsygankov has been noted already this month, as Emery looks to make a potential swoop for the player in the next few weeks.
Man United target Viktor Tsygankov in action for Ukraine.
If the Villa Park side wish to bring him to the Premier League, however, the Spaniard will have to trigger his release clause, which currently sits at €30m (£26m), an affordable figure, certainly.
With Champions League football gracing the Midlands next term, there is no doubt that the manager will have to strengthen his team. Signing Tsygankov would be a smart piece of business, especially after his form last term.
How Diaby compares Viktor Tsygankov
Diaby arrived at Villa to much fanfare last summer following a season in which he registered 25 goal contributions – 14 goals and 11 assists – for Bayer Leverkusen, yet he failed to really sparkle under Emery.

Across 54 matches in all competitions, the French winger scored ten goals and grabbed nine assists. Decent statistics, but hardly mind-blowing considering his output for the German side.
In comparison, Tsygankov scored eight times and chipped in with seven assists across 34 matches, just four goal involvements shy of Diaby’s total, having played 20 matches less.
Among the rest of his squad, the Ukrainian winger ranked third for goals and assists (15) in La Liga, along with ranking third for big chances created (12) and fourth for key passes per game (1.1), showing how effective he was in the final third last term.
Football talent scout Jacek Kulig hailed the winger following his spell at Dynamo Kyiv, dubbing him “outrageous” as he scored 59 goals and grabbed 45 assists in just 153 matches for the Ukrainian side.
When compared to his positional peers, Tsygankov ranked in the top 16% for assists (0.31) and for non-penalty goals (0.35) per 90 in Europe’s top five leagues over the previous 365 days, showing that he is one of the most reliable finishers around.
There is no doubt that he could shine in the Premier League should he make the move this summer, especially under the tutelage of Emery, who happens to bring the best out of certain players.
A fee of £26m is certainly sizeable, but if the club aim to continue the momentum that has been steadily building recently, then money will have to be spent.
