That’s a change of tactics from previous management teams that pursue...

Tavares spent last season on loan with Marseille, publicly admitting his disappointment that his contract with the French side did not include an option to buy.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp rated Sunday's comeback win over Newcastle as "more difficult" than when the Reds overturned 3-0 aggregate deficit against Barcelona in the Champions League en route to lifting that trophy in 2019. Two goals from substitute Darwin Nunez in the final stages at St James' Park sealed what had been an unlikely victory ever since Virgil van Dijk was sent off in the first half. In fact, the first of Nunez's brace, in the 81st minute, was Liverpool's first shot on target since losing their captain. Compared to the Barcelona game, which was a 4-0 win over 90 minutes at Anfield to prevail on aggregate, this was a turnaround in a much shorter timeframe and in front of a hostile crowd. "It was much more difficult than the Barcelona Game ,” Klopp said to Sky Sports . "That was at home and we played a sensational first game that was lost 3-0 but learned a lot about ourselves and knew we could hurt Barcelona if we defended them prop...

MotoGP 's new tyre pressure rules, enforced from the British GP, have been met with widespread criticism from riders. In a dry race now, riders must complete 50% of a grand prix distance and 30% of a sprint inside the minimum pressures set by Michelin – which was 1.7 bar on the rear, and 1.88 bar on the front. Ostensibly introduced as a safety measure, many riders have noted that the high front minimum is dangerous as any pressure above 2.0 bar strips the tyre of grip and braking stability. Rising front pressures are more likely when riding in packs, particularly due to the turbulence generated by modern bikes' aerodynamics, with the hard braking nature of the Red Bull Ring posing a major challenge for riders. Having struggled in Saturday's sprint, and noting how pressure management has been an issue for the Aprilia in general, Espargaro says he was forced to start last Sunday's grand prix with a front tyre that felt flat. "In t...

Wataru Endo has admitted that his Liverpool move came about after Moises Caicedo turned down the Reds in order to join Chelsea. 30-year-old Endo became Liverpool's third signing of the summer last week, in a deal 90min understands to be worth £16m, and made his debut as a second-half substitute in Saturday's 3-1 win over in Bournemouth. The arrival of defensive midfielder Endo was a huge boost for Liverpool after they missed out on both Caicedo and Romeo Lavia, who also opted to join Chelsea despite Jurgen Klopp's side putting in four bids over the course of the summer. Speaking to The Athletic , Endo admitted that he was acutely aware of Liverpool's search for a player in his role, especially after seeing the Caicedo transfer saga play out. “To be honest I followed Liverpool’s news, that they wanted midfielders, they wanted a number six," Endo said. "I thought Caicedo had gone to Liverpool! So when I heard he went to Chelsea I just thought ‘maybe’. “I thou...

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has praised new signing Wataru Endo for having to deal with a " horrible " situation on his debut for the Reds only one day after joining the club. Previous targets Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia both opted to join Chelsea for a combined £173m, forcing Liverpool to move quickly in the transfer market and spend £16m on Endo instead to reinforce their midfield. News of interest in the Japan international only surfaced on Wednesday and by Friday he was being unveiled at Anfield. The following day, Endo came off the bench in the win over Bournemouth shortly after Alexis Mac Allister was sent off in controversial circumstances. Klopp was impressed by the way Endo handled things after a whirlwind few days. "Horrible [situation], first Game coming in," the Liverpool boss said of his new signing coming into the Game in the manner that he did. "The two days he had, I'm not surprised. He did alright, had no clue what to do. I spoke w...
