Liverpool endured another frustrating afternoon as a dramatic finale resulted in a 2-2 Premier League draw against Fulham on Sunday

Cody Gakpo thought he had clinched an injury-time victory after Florian Wirtz had earlier levelled Harry Wilson’s first-half opener at Craven Cottage, but Fulham substitute Harrison Reed scored a stunning goal in the seventh minute of added time.

 

Alisson Becker, 6 – His only action in the first half was to retrieve the ball from the net after former teammate Wilson scored. He later denied Jimenez, with Wilson hitting the bar from the rebound, reports the Liverpool Echo. He had no chance with Fulham’s second goal.

 

Conor Bradley, 7 – His defensive positioning wasn’t always perfect in the first half, but he managed to get more out of Robinson after the break. His strong run led to the equaliser.

Ibrahima Konate, 7 – Fulham allowed him plenty of possession and he looked to play balls down the inside right channel. He defended strongly against the robust Jimenez.

 

Virgil van Dijk, 6 – He played Wilson marginally onside for the opener but made some useful interventions afterwards. However, his clearance after Wilson hit the bar was strange, and he didn’t close down Reed for the second goal.

 

Milos Kerkez, 6 – A tad too predictable with his final third deliveries, but showed good energy levels and commitment. A solid defensive performance.

Milos Kerkez, 6 – A tad too predictable with his final third deliveries, but showed good energy levels and commitment. A solid defensive performance.

Ryan Gravenberch, 6 – His passing was a bit loose before the interval and he failed to track Wilson for the opener, but he showed significant improvement in the second half.

 

Alexis Mac Allister, 6 – Playing at the base of midfield, he played it safe when he had plenty of possession in the opening quarter and only really got going in spells. He was unlucky with a header that hit the bar.

 

Dominik Szoboszlai, 6 – He struggled to make an impact on the right flank before the break and was often caught out of position defensively, but he improved in the second half. Ended the game playing centrally.

Florian Wirtz, 7 – He was largely absent in the first half but created a chance for Jones, and his performance improved along with Liverpool’s. He took his goal well. Subbed off.

 

Curtis Jones, 7 – His close-range flick was blocked and he set up Gakpo for a chance, providing a spark throughout the game. A decent performance. Subbed off.

 

Cody Gakpo, 8 – He mishit a shot when sent clear early on but provided a focal point for the attack and grew into the game. He came close with two second-half efforts before moving to the left wing for the closing moments, where he bundled in the second goal. Booked and subbed off.

Jeremie Frimpong (for Wirtz 76), 6 – He struggled to make progress down the right flank until he crossed for the second goal.

 

Federico Chiesa (for Jones 85), N/A – Played a few minutes at the centre of the attack.

 

Joe Gomez (for Gakpo 90+6), N/A – Made a welcome return.

Liverpool deal ‘agreed’ as Marc Guehi update drops after Arsenal play their hand

Published

on

As of today there is no confirmed transfer that Liverpool have signed Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace.

 

 

 

 

There are only ongoing transfer rumours and interest reports — but no official confirmation that the move has happened. �

Sky Sports +1

📌 Current Situation

Marc Guehi is still a Crystal Palace player and is expected to continue there this season — Palace boss Oliver Glasner has said he believes Guehi will remain at Selhurst Park this January. �

Sky Sports

His contract expires at the end of the season and he refused a new deal, so he’s likely to leave when that contract ends. �

Sky Sports

Liverpool remain interested, but according to reliable sources they are not planning to complete the transfer now; they may wait for Guehi to move as a free agent in summer 2026. �

Goal

🚨 Rumours (but not confirmed)

Liverpool had a bid in the past, and discussions have taken place, but Crystal Palace blocked the deal previously because they couldn’t secure a replacement. �

Goal

Other clubs (e.g., Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid) have also shown interest. �

Football365

✅ Official stance: No, Liverpool have not confirmed the signing of Marc Guehi.

Arsenal transfer news: Ethan Nwaneri reaches exit decision as £80m agreement eyed

 

Mirror Football brings you a round-up of the latest transfer news surrounding Arsenal

 

Mikel Arteta is hoping his Arsenal team can go all the way this season

 

Arsenal may be in the midst of a title race but they are still working quietly behind the scenes on transfers. Mikel Arteta has already admitted the club is willing to spend in January should the opportunity arise.

 

Heading into the Premier League clash with Liverpool on Thursday night, the Gunners hold a five-point advantage over rivals Manchester City, with an opportunity to stretch that to eight points after 21 games with a win over the title holders.

 

 

Arteta’s stacked squad, thanks to a summer of heavy expenditure on quality players, ensured they came out of an injury-riddled past four months unscathed, as some key players recently made their return to fitness.

 

Yet, in a division as tough as this and with four trophies to fight for, there is always room for squad improvement. Here, Mirror Football brings you two of the latest transfer developments involving the north London club.

Ethan Nwaneri makes exit decision

 

Ethan Nwaneri reportedly wants to stay and fight for his place in the Arsenal team for the remainder of the season. The 18-year-old has attracted attention from Bournemouth this month, with the Premier League side eager to sign him on loan until the end of this campaign following the sale of Antoine Semenyo to Manchester City.

 

There is a sense that a temporary move would benefit Nwaneri given his lack of playing time this season. The Hale End academy product has been left out of the last few matchday squads after seeing his playing time decrease drastically compared to last season. He has made only six Premier League appearances since scoring four league goals in 26 matches last term.

With the likes of Martin Odegaard, Mikel Merino, Eberechi Eze and now injury returnee Kai Havertz ahead of the youngster in the pecking order, some believe Nwaneri needs a move to continue his progression. However, Arsenal do not want to sell the player due to his obvious talent.

 

The Independent reports Nwaneri feels he can learn more by being part of a serious title challenge, meaning he is happy to remain patient and assess his situation at the end of the season, when he may well have a league trophy to his name.
