Arsenal reaction & Forest centre-back linked – Latest Liverpool FC News – Liverpool FC

It has been a disappointing start to the week for Liverpool supporters, with Man United finally deciding to sack Erik ten Hag!

Today’s Main Headline

It’s not Liverpool news but we all feared that this day would come, didn’t we?!

After clinging on to his job during the summer, Man United have now dealt Ten Hag his fatal blow following a 2-1 defeat at West Ham on Sunday.

It has left Liverpool’s rivals sitting 14th in the Premier League table – hilarious! – with only four wins from 14 games this season in all competitions.

The search is now on to find Ten Hag’s successor, with Ruud van Nistelrooy in interim charge for the time being. Gareth Southgate would be a pretty funny choice!

Bizarre that we actually only beat Ten Hag’s United twice in six games.

Liverpool FC: On this day

On this day in 2007, Steven Gerrard made his 400th Liverpool appearance, coming at home to Arsenal in the Premier League.

In typical Stevie fashion, he lashed home a free-kick to open the scoring, in the 200th meeting between the Reds and the Gunners.

Rafa Benitez’s side ended up having to settle for a share of the spoils, though, with Cesc Fabregas equalising in the second half.

This was Gerrard at the peak of his powers – what Slot would give to have him in his squad now!
