Liverpool and Everton could be in danger of seeing another Merseyside derby postponed due to stormy weather conditions in the United Kingdom. The Reds and Toffees had to reschedule one of their meetings in the 2024-25 campaign, with questions being asked of whether their latest clash - scheduled to take place at Anfield on Saturday - will go ahead as planned.
There are obviously two ways of looking at Liverpool's 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid at Anfield on Wednesday evening. On the plus side, they scored another late winner. On the negative side, they needed another late winner.
A Liverpool legend has revealed that he played for bitter rivals Everton in his youth before going on to become an Anfield icon. Reds hero Jamie Carragher famously grew up supporting the Toffees before moving to their Merseyside foes and Steven Gerrard was pictured wearing an Everton kit as a youngster. Now, another club great has revealed his connection to the blue half of the city.
Everton's summer signing Jack Grealish has been accused of "overplaying" for the Toffees since moving to the club on a season-long loan from Manchester City. The midfielder was named the Premier League's Player of the Month for August but has been warned that manager David Moyes may want a word with him about his performances.
Unai Emery explained why he kept Jadon Sancho on the bench against Everton last Saturday as the Manchester United loanee is forced to wait on his Aston Villa debut. After being shunned from the first team and included in Ruben Amorim's "bomb squad", Sancho was destined to leave Old Trafford during the transfer window and he eventually managed to secure a loan move to Villa Park on deadline day.
Unai Emery hailed Aston Villa star Emi Martinez for his sensational performance against Everton following a failed move to Manchester United. However, in a shock turn, United ditched Martinez at the last minute and instead signed Belgian youngster Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp. That switch paved the way for Andre Onana’s loan departure to Trabzonspor, but left Martinez high and dry in Birmingham.
Jack Grealish really is back, having toiled towards the end at Manchester City, with the Everton star being named Premier League Player of the Month.
