  1. Not a full round of fixtures as some clubs are on their winter break but there were a fair few games this weekend and most of the results went fairly well for us. There was one exception of course, the fucking cheating cunts pulled within two points of us at the top and I’m not gonna lie, I’ve got this sense of burning injustice welling up inside me already. If we lose out to them by a point or two again, after what happened at Spurs and with them having 115 charges hanging over them seemingly indefinitely (I know a date has been set, but their lawyers will find a way to get an extension) while other clubs who have done far less serious crimes are being punished…. I don’t know what I’ll do, but it will be hard to even think about carrying on following this fucking joke of a sport. I’m not taking their win at Newcastle very well at all, but it’s not about that particular game. It’s everything. They’ve cheated for a decade now and completely distorted the league, and even though everyone knows about it they’re just allowed to carry on winning titles at the expense of us and others. Other clubs break the rules and it’s dealt with fairly swiftly, but they’ve broken so many rules they’re basically getting away scot free. By the time they eventually have to answer for what they’ve done, Guardiola and most of the players will have filled their trophy cabinets and won’t give a fuck what happens. And we’ll be left looking at a handful of second placed finishes that should be first place because we were playing by the rules and those cunts weren’t. I fucking despise City with every fibre of my being. I hated United when they were winning everything but it was completely different. I was pretty pissed off with us for not being able to do anything about it and there was a grudging respect there as well as a hint of jealousy. I’m in no way shape or form jealous of anything when it comes to City, I have no respect for their ‘achievements’ and nothing in this world would make me happier than if they were thrown out of professional football and made to play Sunday League. I hate them so much I can’t even take any consolation in the fact it was Newcastle whose hearts they broke. I didn’t watch the game but I had Goldbridge’s live watch along on. He kept referencing their cheating, the 115 charges and also how Rodri seems to be immune from a second yellow card. Basically all the stuff that we say about City, he’s saying. It’s refreshing to hear someone who isn’t a Liverpool fan calling out this shit. If Newcastle had managed to hold onto their 2-1 lead it would have given us such an enormous boost for next week. A five point cushion with them still having to come to Anfield would have been a pretty strong position. Now it’s two fucking points and De Bruyne is back, and the Blobfish robot up front won’t be out for too much longer either. It feels ominous. The PL hate City, I have no doubt about that, as they have completely tarnished the integrity of the competition. The problem is PGMOL fucking love them. No wonder, when half of the refs are being paid for side gigs by City’s chairman. The PL needs to step in here and tell Webb to sort this shit out, because if we get down to the last couple of games and it’s neck and neck or we are just a point behind them, that Spurs debacle is going to loom very large. The time to act is now, the PL need to put pressure on Webb to sort this shit out. Cheats shouldn’t prosper. The only thing I saw from this game was Bernardo Silva’s goal and that was only because Twitter exploded about it. “Goal of the season” “Stop that Bernardo Silva” “what a baller” and other such nauseating shit. I watched the clip of it, and it’s nothing special. I say it all the time, but that’s an Usher-esque finish, I used to score them virtually every week. It’s not that hard. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice goal and a tidy little finish, I’m just saying that anyone hyping that up as goal of the season knows nothing about finishing. It’s not even goal of the weekend, let alone the season. The only other thing I have to say about this is “fuck Kevin De Bruyne and his stupid haircut|”. There was a time when he was the only thing about City I didn’t hate, but fuck all that. I hate him as much I hate the rest of them now. Fuck him and his stupid Prince Harry face. View full article
  2. There are so many online casinos out there that it can be hard to know where to begin. When the world closed down in 2020, even more online casinos emerged, and UK punters now have thousands to choose from. While choice is great, finding the one that suits you isn’t so easy. With different bonuses, payment options, game offerings and terms and conditions, how do you know which are the best? Thankfully, we’re here to help. Our guide will give you information about all the best online casinos right now. We’ve done all the hard work and research for you so all you need to do is choose from our ranked list. How We Rate Online Casinos When we look for the best 10 online casinos, there are a number of things we look out for. Firstly, we ensure the online casino is fully licensed and regulated within the UK by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). This organisation is one of the strictest in the world so you can rest assured that the casino will look after you as a customer. Secondly, we look at what the casino has to offer. We review its games, variety, whether it has a live dealer section or a sportsbook, and whether there are good bonuses with decent terms and conditions. We also consider the range of payment methods and the speeds offered as well. All these aspects create an overall picture of the online casino, which helps us to decide where to place them in our ranked list. Here’s what we came up with. Barz When we started looking for top online casinos, Barz surprised us. We hadn’t really come across this site much, but we were pleasantly surprised by what we found. Yes, the minimum deposit is higher at £20 compared to BetUK. However, you can make your deposits with a huge range of banking options, including modern e-wallets like Revolut and Apple Pay. Most people choose to play with their mobiles and so Barz ensures its mobile site is top quality. There are plenty of games (even more than BetUK) and it also has a solid UKGC license. In terms of its bonus, this is higher than BetUK’s as it offers 100% up to a maximum of £300 as well as 50 spins. These do come with high wagering requirements of 40x, though, which is why we’ve placed this site as our number two. Jackpot Village In at number four is Jackpot Village. This is a popular casino for UK players because of its welcome bonus. If you’ve visited an online casino before, you’ll know just how much everyone loves the classic slot title Book of Dead. Well, this is what draws new customers to Jackpot Village. Here, you get 200 free spins on the Book of Dead slot simply by making a minimum deposit of £20. You also get a no-deposit bonus just for registering. This is 20 free spins on the slot Fortunium. Site design means a lot to us—as you read, it affected where we placed BetUK and LeoVegas. We liked the Jackpot Village design and found it easy to work our way around and find everything. As you’d expect, we checked this site is fully licensed and regulated by the UKGC. It also offers top-level encryption and robust responsible gaming protocols to ensure the safety and protection of customers. In terms of games, you can access more than 2,000 here. There are live casino games, jackpots, video slots, and RNG table games too. You can also pay in lots of different ways, including by bank transfer, cards—even American Express—and e-wallets. LeoVegas LeoVegas is actually the brand behind our number one slot BetUK. However, unlike BetUK, LeoVegas actually accepts Apple Pay. We simply love LeoVegas for its customer service. They were so helpful the few times we tried contacting them and nothing was too much trouble for their customer service team. Again, the minimum deposit is £10 and the welcome bonus is the same as BetUK’s (50 spins on Big Bass Splash and a 100% deposit match up to £100. There are lots of games here too and it has a license with UKGC as well as three European jurisdictions. So, why did we rate this site lower than BetUK given the similarities? We simply preferred the BetUK website. BetUK BetUK has come out at number one in our list despite not having as many games as some of the other online casinos. Overall, this site has the potential to be the most suitable for the majority of UK players. Despite its release only three years ago, it has soared in its reputation. This could be because its owner is well versed in producing excellent online gambling platforms. What we love about BetUK is that the transactions happen quickly. This is for both deposits and withdrawals. You can pay by debit card or PayPal, if preferred, and all transactions are secure thanks to top-level encryption technology. We would like to see more payment options available, though, but this isn’t enough to put us off recommending it to our readers. The bonus for UK players is good. You can make a minimum deposit of £10 and receive a welcome bonus of up to £100 with 50 bonus spins on the popular slot Big Bass Splash. Mr Vegas Mr Vegas has a straightforward sign up process for new customers and it is well-liked. You’ll likely see this online casino on lots of ‘top’ lists because of what it offers. There is a mind blowing number of games (around 4,000 we estimated). These come from a range of the top software providers in the world. As for bonuses, this offer is great. You can get a 100% deposit bonus as a new customer up to the value of £200. This can be accessed with as little as £10. We know our readers appreciate lower wagering requirements too, so you’ll be pleased to know that Mr Vegas only has 35x requirements. There are lower wagering requirements out there, but these are still lower than average for this type of offer. You can also relax in the knowledge that you have a full 60 days to meet them. 21 Co UK 21 Co UK offers its new customers a 100% bonus up to £50 as a welcome bonus. What’s interesting here is that you also get £6 to spend in live casino chips. This is a unique offer that we’ve never seen before anywhere else. The 21 Co UK website itself has a great design and it’s easy to register. New customers don’t have to take the bonus offer straight away but you must claim it within 7 days, or it will expire. You then need to use the bonus funds within 7 days after claiming. The £6 live casino chip is active for 3 days and you can use it on certain games by Evolution. As for wagering requirements, these are 40x for the bonus cash but only 10x for the live casino chip. The maximum you can win is £50. Get Value for Money at These Top Online UK Casino So, there you have it, 6 top online casinos the UK has right now. If you’re looking for one that has a sportsbook, however, you might need to do further research as not all these do. There’s no reason why you need to have the same website for both, however. You can choose one of these online casino for your iGaming and head to a different site to bet on the Premier League, for instance.
  3. What is it going to take to win the Premier League this season? Darwin clicking in front of goal? New signings? Or the young players rising to the occasion? And how does the spectre of a Man City resurgence alter our expectations? Chris Smith, Dave Usher and Paul Natton used the winter break to take some listener questions on our player of the year so far, the Reds best XI and what we would consider a successful season from this point. We pick the Liverpool players we'd stake our lives on in a penalty shoot out and how the matchday experience has changed in our long years attending Anfield. View full article

  5. Football is more than just a game; it's a global phenomenon that unites people from all walks of life. Over the years, people have evolved the way they follow and celebrate football. This change has been especially noticeable with the rise of fan journalism. Websites like this one have played a pivotal role in this evolution. They offer a unique perspective on the game and foster a strong sense of community among fans. Grassroots Beginnings Fan journalism in football has its roots in the passionate conversations. They spill out of the stands and into the everyday lives of supporters. Initially, this took the form of fanzines, like "The Liverpool Way". Fans created and published these magazines. These were the precursors to modern fan journalism. They offered a raw, unfiltered voice that mainstream media often lacked. The Digital Revolution The advent of the internet revolutionized how fans consumed football content. Fan websites emerged, transforming the landscape of football journalism. These websites provided a space for fans to express their views. They also shared news and engaged in in-depth analysis of their beloved club. A New Perspective What sets fan journalism apart is its authenticity. Traditional sports journalism often maintains a neutral stance. In contrast, fan-driven platforms are biased. This bias is not a flaw but a feature, providing a level of passion and insight that only true fans can offer. Fans write articles on fansites creating a connection that mainstream outlets struggle to replicate. Impact on Mainstream Media The rise of fan journalism has not gone unnoticed by mainstream media. Traditional media outlets are including more fan-focused content. They recognize the growing influence of these platforms. This shift acknowledges the essential role fans play in the football narrative. It bridges the gap between professional journalism and fan-led content. Shaping Fan Opinions Platforms like this one don't just report on football. They help shape how fans perceive it. They offer an alternative narrative, often challenging the mainstream media's portrayal of events. Fans who share their passion can gain a more nuanced understanding of the game. Diverse viewpoints and in-depth analysis expose them. Fostering Community Fan-driven platforms have the ability to foster a sense of community. This is their most significant contribution. "The Liverpool Way" is not just a website; it's a gathering place for supporters. Fans from around the world connect, share experiences, and engage in discussions through forums and comment sections. This sense of belonging is invaluable, particularly in an era where physical distances can separate fans from their teams. Challenges and Opportunities Despite their success, fan journalism platforms face challenges. Maintaining credibility is an ongoing struggle. Balancing bias is as well. Competing with larger media outlets for access and information is another challenge. Ensuring financial sustainability is also difficult. However, these challenges also present opportunities for innovation and growth. As these platforms evolve, they continue to redefine the boundaries of football journalism. The Future of Fan Journalism Looking ahead, the influence of fan journalism in football is likely to grow. The demand for authentic, fan-centric content shows no signs of waning. Platforms like "The Liverpool Way" will continue to evolve. They may incorporate new technologies and formats to enhance the fan experience. The evolution of fan journalism in football, particularly through platforms like this one reflects a deeper shift in how sports content is created and consumed. These fan-driven sites offer more than just match analysis or player updates; they provide a voice to the passionate fanbase. This democratization of sports journalism has led to a richer, more varied discourse around football, challenging traditional media narratives and bringing fans closer to the action. Fan journalism empowers supporters to become content creators. It blurs the lines between spectator and commentator. Social media and digital platforms give everyone a voice. Fan-driven sites have capitalized on this trend. They offer a more relatable and fan-focused perspective on the game. This shift has increased fan engagement. It has also enhanced the overall football culture. It has created a more inclusive and diverse conversation around the sport. Moreover, these platforms have become crucial in shaping public opinion and fan reactions. They often provide a grassroots perspective. They highlight issues and viewpoints that mainstream media may overlook. This can include focusing on local community impacts of football clubs. It can also cover youth development programs and even financial aspects of the sport. In conclusion, the rise of fan journalism in football represents a significant shift in how the sport is covered and consumed. Fan run websites epitomize this change. These platforms offer a unique perspective that enriches the football experience. Engaging in a game of play online roulette with live dealer can bring a new level of excitement to gaming. They inform and entertain. They also create a sense of community that binds fans together, regardless of geographical barriers. Football continues to captivate hearts and minds globally. Fan journalism will remain an integral part of its narrative.
  6. Liverpool will be looking to boost their title pursuit when London's rich boys, Chelsea, come to visit Anfield in a game that reeks of rivalry. Despite a sizeable amount spent during the summer transfer window, both clubs have had vastly different tales to tell this season. While Chelsea have struggled to break into the top nine due to their inconsistent performances, Liverpool's rebuild under Jurgen Klopp is going perfectly, as they are one of the top contenders for the Premier League crown. Klopp used the summer to oversee the much-needed midfield rebuild his side required, having not signed a senior midfielder since Thiago Alcantara’s move from Bayern Munich in 2020. Alexis MacAllister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo, and Ryan Gravenberch all came in to counter the departures of former club captain Jordan Henderson, James Milner, Naby Keita, Fabinho Tavares and Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain. Liverpool have had a surreal start to the season, winning ten and drawing four of their 15 Premier League games. The only loss the Reds have had was to Ange Postecoglu’s Spurs away at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, a game marred by controversies from the officiating team, which saw both Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota sent off and a wrongly disallowed Luis Diaz goal. Meanwhile, Chelsea made substantial investments during the offseason, committing over £300 million to transfers. Among the notable arrivals were the £100 million acquisition Moisés Caicedo, who chose Chelsea over Liverpool, Robert Sánchez from Brighton, Axel Disasi and Lesley Ugochukwu from the French Ligue 1, Cole Palmer from rivals Manchester City, Nicolas Jackson from La Liga side Villarreal, Romeo Lavia from relegated Southampton, and Christopher Nkunku from RB Leipzig this summer. The Blues then let go of Kai Havertz, Mason Mount, Mateo Kovacic, Kalidou Koulibaly, Christian Pulisic, Edouard Mendy, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Ethan Ampadu, Romelu Lukaku Callum Hudson-Odoi, César Azpilicueta, N'Golo Kanté, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Hakim Ziyech, Tiemoué Bakayoko, and a host of other young players. And, of course, Mauricio Pochettino took over as coach in the summer. Unfortunately for Chelsea, Nkunku and Lavia are yet to play in the Premier League, as both are undergoing rehabilitation following injuries they sustained before the start of the season. Nonetheless, they could be back soon enough. Chelsea have had a topsy-turvy campaign, picking 31 points from 21 games after nine wins, four draws, and eight losses. Their last result was a 1-0 home win over Fulham. They have also suffered losses to Newcastle United, Brentford, Aston Villa, Nottingham Forest, but West Ham are the only member of the current top six to beat them. Under Pochettino, the Blues have generally played well, but the results have not panned out in their favor due to a lack of firepower in front of goal. The game between Chelsea and Liverpool has been competitive over the years. Remarkably, seven of the last meetings between both sides have ended in draws after 90 minutes. And in those seven games, they have scored more than one goal just once. Since 2013, both teams have met 30 times, and Chelsea have the slight upper hand, winning 8, while Liverpool have won six. However, judging by the results of both teams this season, Liverpool has the upper hand as they have the momentum. Match tickets The epic match at Anfield in Liverpool starts on Wednesday, 31st January 2024, at 8 PM UK time. The magnificent 61,276-capacity stadium, with its electrifying atmosphere, is the place to be for this clash between the title contenders and a side fighting for survival. Getting tickets for the Liverpool vs Chelsea tickets could take a lot of work, given the standard of this game. Hence, you are advised to search ticket reselling sites should they be expected to be sold out on each club’s channels. Team news Line-ups Liverpool have a number of players injured, but some may be fit for the fixture. Spanish youngster Stefan Bajcetic has suffered from a calf injury since the season's opening weeks and won't be ready in time, nor will Thiago Alcantara. Joel Matip, who ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament, is set to miss the rest of the season, but Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to be back and there is a chance either or both of Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas will also return. Liverpool: Alison Becker; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez; Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Curtis Jones; Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota: The Blues should have the full complement of their squad ready for the game against Liverpool. Trevor Chalobah, Malo Gusto, Ben Chilwell, Carney Chukwuemeka, Lesley Ugochukwu, Christopher Nkunku, and Romeo Lavia have been out recently. Still, they should be fully fit for the Liverpool fixture. Meanwhile, Wesley Fofana is still recovering from an ACL injury. Chelsea: Robert Sanchez; Malo Gusto, Thiago Silva, Levi Colwill, Ben Chilwell; Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo; Cole Palmer, Raheem Sterling, Mikhailo Mudryk; Christopher Nkunku: Prediction Despite the somewhat different trajectory of both sides coming into this tie, the game will be as tight as in previous seasons. If Chelsea can get their act together, they could get a favorable result but if Liverpool's front three clicks, Chelsea will be in trouble. Liverpool 3-2 Chelsea
  7. Monday Jan 8: Henderson wants to quit Saudi because the weather is too hot, the training facilities are shit and the crowds are pathetic. Apparently there’s loads of others who want out now too one of the reasons being given is the lack of freedom the wives have. I mean, where to even fucking start with this. How thick are these cunts? I assumed they knew all of this beforehand but just wanted the money. There are also rumours that players want to leave because of the human rights issues and how they impact their wives. You couldn’t make this shit up, it’s fucking pathetic. It seems almost incomprehensible that they didn’t know it was hot and that women aren’t allowed to do normal stuff over there, but after that interview Henderson did with the Athletic it’s clear he’s thick as fuck so maybe he didn’t do his homework before he went there. It’s more likely that he fell for the bullshit about how that league was the new happening place to be and that he was going to be playing with / against loads of stars in front of massive crowds, but now that he knows that’s not how it is he wants out. Imagine completely fucking ruining your legacy at Liverpool to go and play six months over there before coming back with your tail between your legs. What a fucking knobhead he’s turned out to be. I don’t really give much of a shit about anyone else who went over there. I didn’t like it, but didn’t judge them too harshly. With him though, I just thought he was better than that so it was a tough scene finding out he wasn’t. And then he did the interview which just made me think he’s a fucking helmet. And now it’s even worse because he’s quitting and didn’t even have the stones to stick it out. I hope he doesn’t come back to the PL because I don’t want to even look at him. There’s talk that Newcastle want him and that he’s interested. As much as I think he’s a fucking gobshite, I don’t think he’s that much of a gobshite. Meanwhile, United beat Wigan in the FA Cup tonight. Fernandes is getting shit for diving to win a pen, but not from Wrighty who called it ‘clever’. I love Wrighty but you’ve got to be consistent on these things or you look like Alan Shearer - in other words a twat. Last week Wrighty hammered Jota but tonight he’s justifying what Fernandes did. Come on, Wrighty, you’re better than that.

  9. Once again we’ve had to come back from being behind. Once again we’ve been a bit shit in the first half and needed Klopp to fix it at the break. Once again, the subs made the difference. Once again, Darwin was fucking boss but somehow didn’t score again. Rinse and repeat. It’s been happening for most of the season. We’ve had some good first halves, but we’re essentially a second half team right now. That’s ok, I’d rather start slow and finish strong than the other way around, but it would be nice to have the occasional game put to bed by half time wouldn’t it? We actually started this game really well but after conceding against the run of play we lost our way. The first ten minutes or so we looked right at it, the counter pressing was brilliant and we kept winning the ball back quickly against a Fulham side who made us look distinctly average only a few weeks ago. And that was when we had Trent and Mo in the side. We’re down to the bare bones at the moment and had only 13 available senior outfield players for this game. You’d never have known by the way we started the game, but it was quite glaring after we fell behind. The starting line up didn’t help. Any time I see a team sheet without Nunez I’m bracing myself for disappointment. Say what you like about him, but when he doesn’t play we’re a lot less interesting to watch and infinitely easier to play against. And that’s even when we’ve got Mo in the team.

  11. The Reds rebounded from a poor first half, as goals from Jones and impressive substitute Gakpo put the 9-times League Cup winners on course for another Wembley Final. Chris Smith is joined by Stu Montagu and TLW Editor Dave Usher to recap the action, heap praise on Connor Bradley and assess our prospects for the rest of January amid a growing absentee list.

  13. Hey there Reds! If you're a Liverpool fan with a passion for slots, you're in for a treat. Just like watching the mighty Reds score incredible goals, playing slots with bonus rounds is an experience that can take your excitement to a whole new level. So, whether you're gearing up for matchday or looking for a way to add some extra thrill to your downtime, let's dive into the world of slots with bonus rounds and unravel the excitement they bring to the game. Okay, let's kick things off with the basics. Slots with bonus rounds are like those unforgettable moments when Liverpool secures a late-game victory. These are slot games that go beyond the standard spinning reels and introduce additional features, mini-games, or special rounds that can boost your chances of winning and amplify the overall excitement. Scatter Symbols Imagine Salah making a breathtaking run down the wing – that's the role scatter symbols play in slots with bonus rounds. These symbols are like the game-changers on the reels. When they appear in specific combinations or quantities, they unlock bonus rounds, free spins, or other exciting features. In many slots, landing three or more scatter symbols transports you straight to the bonus round, just like Liverpool making it to the knockout stages of a major tournament. Keep an eye out for these symbols – they're your ticket to a world of bonus-driven thrills. Free Spins Free spins are to slot enthusiasts what the Anfield roar is to Liverpool fans – pure, unbridled joy. In bonus rounds, free spins are often the highlight, giving you the opportunity to spin the reels without depleting your own funds. During free spins, some slots introduce additional features like multipliers, expanding wilds, or cascading reels. It's a bit like watching Liverpool's once legendary attacking trio of Salah, Mane, and Firmino working seamlessly together – a dynamic combination that led to spectacular results. Pick-and-Win Casino Games Just as Jurgen Klopp strategically selects his starting XI, exciting slots with bonus rounds allow you to make tactical decisions on the reels. In these bonus rounds, you're presented with different options or objects to choose from, each hiding a hidden prize or multiplier. Your choices can influence the outcome of the bonus round, adding an element of skill and strategy to the slot game. It's like being the manager of your own slot adventure, making decisions that could lead to big wins, just as Klopp's decisions on the touchline impact the match. Multipliers Multipliers are the showstars of the slot world – they have the power to boost your winnings in an instant. In bonus rounds, multipliers can be applied to your wins, multiplying the payout by a specified factor. For example, if you land a winning combination during a free spins round with a 3x multiplier, your winnings are tripled. Cascading Reels Cascading reels are a bit like the relentless energy and goal-scoring prowess of Mohamed Salah. In slots that have cascading reels, winning combinations will disappear from the screen, thus making way for new symbols to fall into place. It's a continuous cycle of potential wins, much like Salah's ability to create goal-scoring opportunities one after another. Cascading reels are often part of bonus rounds, creating a dynamic and engaging gameplay experience.

  14. Two in-form teams square off when Premier League leaders Liverpool visit Bournemouth for their opening league game in 2024. Here is a preview. Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth are in action against Liverpool for their only league fixture in January following the Premier League’s winter break. The Reds have dominated their head-to-head fixtures with some heavy scorelines, winning nine of their last ten meetings with Bournemouth. In November, Liverpool won 2-1 when they last traveled to the South Coast on Carabao Cup duty. For Bournemouth, Andoni Iraola has navigated a shaky start to his tenure as they failed to win any of their first nine games in the Premier League. The sacking of Gary O’Neil on the eve of the season was a less-than-ideal buildup and those fears were realized early as they drew West Ham and Brentford while losing to Liverpool and Tottenham in their first four games. A scoreless draw with Chelsea started a run of four straight defeats during which they found the net only twice. However, goals from Antoine Semenyo and Philip Billing gave them their first win of the season against Burnley and they built on it with three wins and a draw in the next five league matches. Bournemouth’s most significant result of the season came in a 3-0 win at Old Trafford and they scored three times in the next two matches against Nottingham Forest and Fulham but ended the year with defeat at Tottenham. The Cherries have been much better in recent weeks and they now sit three points behind mid-table in 12th position. They feel they can do something significant this season and must keep raising the table to achieve that. Any form of a result against the current league leaders would go a long way in strengthening that belief and Bournemouth can count on the experience of beating Liverpool 1-0 in the corresponding fixture last season. The Merseysiders, on the other hand, have been magnificent all season as they aim to gatecrash this season’s title race following a wobble in the 2022-23 campaign. Although there are still some visible deficiencies in their play, Liverpool will be delighted with their fortunes and keen to keep their spot with Manchester City five points behind and a game in hand. An opening draw against Chelsea pointed little in the way of a direction but Liverpool won all of their next five league games. The eventual defeat to Tottenham Hotspur was a vindication of their resilience as poor officiating cost them points despite having two players sent off. While they beat Everton, Nottingham Forest and Brentford, draws against Brighton, Luton Town and Manchester City highlighted the teething issues they have defensively. December nevertheless started with consecutive wins against Fulham, Sheffield United and Crystal Palace but they drew key head-to-head clashes against Manchester United and Arsenal. Liverpool beat Burnley 2-0 on Boxing Day before getting the better of Newcastle in a New Year’s Day epic. Their resilient form this term has been helped by being the team with the most comeback wins in Europe’s top five leagues as they display incredible game-management and mental fortitude. Those qualities are priceless in a title race and they will take on Bournemouth in-between the Carabao Cup semi-final ties against Fulham. With their sights set on silverware come the end of the season, it is pertinent that Jurgen Klopp’s men continue the winning momentum as rivals plot to take their spot. Although they will be without some key players at Bournemouth, the Reds are more than capable of seeing out another win. Match tickets The match takes place on Sunday, January 21 with kick-off at 4:30 PM UK time. Tickets for the game have been made available for sale on each club’s website so season ticket holders can help themselves. Bournemouth have been excellent recently and their fans will be charged up for the game, hoping their side can pull off consecutive Premier League home wins against Liverpool. This means that the just over 11,000-capacity Vitality Stadium will be sold out quickly and supporters are unlikely to find match tickets on official channels. Hence, those looking for Bournemouth vs Liverpool tickets may be lucky to find one on a ticket resale site. 

 Team news 
 Hamed Traore, Tyler Adams, Ryan Fredericks and Emiliano Marcondes are unavailable due to injury while Dango Ouattara and Antoine Semenyo are away on international duty. Darren Randolph could however be close to a return for the Cherries. Liverpool’s Dominik Szoboszlai went off with a hamstring injury on New Year’s Day to join a growing injury list that includes Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic, Ben Doak, Joel Matip, Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas. Wataru Endo and Mohamed Salah are also unavailable having joined up with their national teams, while Trent Alexander-Arnold became the latest addition to the casualty list when he tweaked knee ligaments in the FA Cup win at Arsenal.
 Line-ups Bournemouth are riding a solid wave of momentum and continuity is vital to their steady rise up the standings. One man who is undroppable when fit and available is Dominic Solanke, enjoying his best-ever goal tally in a single Premier League season. The ex-Liverpool striker would love to net the match-winner against his former employers. Bournemouth: Neto; Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez; Christie, Cook; Kluivert, Billing, Tavernier; Solanke Liverpool have to deal with critical absences but their selection should still be too intense for Bournemouth. Harvey Elliott, Ryan Gravenberch, Kevin MacAllister, Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota are quality options in midfield and attack for the visitors to consider. Liverpool: Alisson; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Gomez; Gravenberch, MacAllister, Jones; Jota, Nunez, Diaz Prediction Bournemouth must be at their best to stop this Liverpool side but their recent performances will make it a very tightly-contested game. Thus, the hosts must be clinical enough to take their chances when they arrive. The key battles are in midfield, where Liverpool’s all-action department will be met with opponents who like to dominate the physical challenges. This would be an exciting game but Liverpool should nevertheless come out victorious. Bournemouth 1-2 Liverpool
  15. It’s always enjoyable beating Arsenal, but doing it when they think they should have won is especially satisfying. I think we’ve done this before, at least to some extent. My memory is notoriously sketchy these days but that cup game a couple of years ago when Jota knocked them out, didn’t they come flying out the traps in that one too? Maybe not to this extent, but I seem to remember us starting that game quite slowly and then gradually playing our way into it and breaking their hearts. This one was especially hilarious though, as our first half performance was a train wreck and we gift wrapped them five or six great chances. They didn’t take any of them and aside from the one that hit the bar, they weren’t even that close to scoring. What did Alisson actually have to do? A routine stop from Havertz and a tip over from Ben Shite, and after that I’m struggling to remember much. The first half basically went like this; we tried playing out from the back, got caught by Arsenal’s high press and then they wasted the chance that they created. It wasn’t like they were playing their way through us from back to front, it was mostly self inflicted on our part and when we fixed that the chances for them dried up. That isn’t to take anything away from what Arsenal did in the first half. They pressed with intensity and with organisation and it worked great for them. I’m just saying though, we kept playing right into their hands and it was doing my head in. That being said, when we got to half time at 0-0 I was 100% convinced we’d win the game. That was Arsenal’s chance and they didn’t take it. You come at the Kings you best not miss, and Arsenal missed repeatedly. If you let us off the hook like that it’s only going to end one way. Arsenal fans aren’t taking it well but I think Arteta had a point when he said they did everything right but didn’t take their chances, so what can he do? He did a good job setting his team up to get at us and give us problems. If they’d finished some of them off we’d have been in trouble and they’d probably be in the hat for the next round instead of us. They didn’t though and as soon as Klopp made his adjustments at half time to counter what Arteta had done it was a different game. The second half was much more of an even contest but I’d say we edged it. Arsenal’s chance to win the game was in the first half and they squandered it and then they lost. There’s no disgrace in that though, we’re better than them, even if a lot of them don’t realise it. Some Arsenal fans are still kidding themselves about that but that’s what they do. Saka is better than Salah, Saliba is better than Virgil, Tierney was better than Robbo, Arteta is better than Klopp…. these are the wild takes I see all the time from their social media whoppers. Almost every tweet I see from Arsenal fans reads like it’s come from a teenager. They’re proper weird. There’s no malice in them, they’re pretty harmless, but they’re just weird and irrationally arrogant. They’re putting the ‘goon’ in ‘gooners’. They actually booed their team off at full time, which is pretty fucking bad like. They’re the most reactionary fans in the country. A few wins and they’re lauding their players to the rooftops, a couple of bad results and it’s “I don’t think Arteta is the guy, blud”.

  17. No Van Dijk, no Salah, no problem.

  20. When it comes to getting a hair transplant in Turkey, it's important to get the basics right. And for that, you should know a little about the kind of treatments you might be offered in Turkey, how you can expect your journey to go, and finally, why is it that Turkey is so affordable. Variety of Techniques Available in Turkey In the world of hair transplants, you’ll hear a lot of abbreviations, so let’s find out what is what. FUE, FUT, and More: Which to Choose? These days, you’ll more commonly hear about follicular unit extraction or FUE hair transplants. In this, a motorised tool is used to extract a unit of hair from the back of the head, and this is then placed into the bald spots through small incisions. FUT or follicular unit transplant, on the other hand, doesn’t take out hair units directly from the back. In this, the surgeon will cut out your skin from the back of the head (a piece of it). The hair in that is then extracted and transplanted. For this surgery, you’ll need stitches, and the other downside is that it can leave a relatively prominent scar. Usually, patients go with FUE for the reasons mentioned above. It has other variations as well, such as DHI and Sapphire which use different tools. In any case, FUE is more popular. But that said, if you don’t have a strong donor area at the back, FUT might also be considered. Only an experienced hair transplant surgeon can best guide you on this since each patient is unique and their needs can vary. Surgeons' Expertise in Various Methods In Turkey, you can find hair transplant surgeons who have experience performing both FUT and FUE, along with the variations of the latter. Because of the medical tourism industry, many surgeons receive a large influx of patients, allowing them to gain more experience and get even better at their craft. Make sure to do your research to find a good surgeon. Case Studies and Patient Experiences Before you make your booking, you should consider checking out what others have to say about a particular surgeon offering hair transplants in Turkey. Individual Journeys and Results People who’ve had hair transplants in Turkey have often shared their individual journeys on social media. You can check their results. Many people also turn to forums to see how others have fared with a particular surgeon. You can also get a good idea from the online reviews and before and after pictures. Patient Care and Support You can find clinics in Turkey who are very committed to offering proper support and care to their patients long after the surgery is over. A hair transplant can take 12-18 months to show the final results, and you might have questions for your surgeon during recovery. You should explicitly ask whether or not aftercare is included and how it’s available. The Economic Aspect of Hair Transplants in Turkey Now let’s get to the heart of the matter, which is the cost and what it means for the quality of the surgery. Cost Versus Quality Analysis Hair transplants in Turkey generally cost about £1,500 to £2,000 and for that, you can get the best hair transplant provided you find the right surgeon and clinic. The reason why Turkey is cheap is not because the quality is low. It’s only this way because of the exchange rate and the low cost of living, especially compared to many other Western countries like the UK, the US, and Canada. Financing Options and Packages If you’re unable to pay for the hair transplant at once, you can also look into different financing options that your clinic might be offering. This can include distributing the payment over a certain period of time, so you can make the payment more comfortably. But when you book your treatment plan, make sure that you double-check all that’s included in it, so there are no hidden costs you have to pay for later.

The 80 Ball BINGO theme is inspired by the atmosphere of a classic bingo hall, imbued with nostalgic nuances for connoisseurs of traditional bingo games.

Symbols and combinations In 80 Ball BINGO, each square in the grid represents a number between 1 and 80 instead of the traditional game symbols.

Winning combinations are formed based on bingo patterns formed during the game. These patterns can range from simple lines and angles to more complex shapes such as crosses or complete grid fills. The mechanics of winning combinations include highlighting the numbers in the grid that meet the requirements of the established bingo pattern. Special features The 80 Ball BINGO game lacks traditional game symbols, but offers unique game features that enrich the gameplay. One of the outstanding features is the "Hot Hot" feature.

In addition, 80 Ball BINGO may offer a "Race for the Jackpot" feature, where players compete to complete a certain pattern for a limited number of bets. The first player to reach this goal wins the jackpot associated with the corresponding pattern, adding an element of excitement and competitive spirit to the game. Free spins and bonuses 80 Ball BINGO, as an innovative slot based on the concept of bingo, does not include the traditional free spins feature usually found in classic video slots.

  22. Monday Jan 1: L 4 Newcastle 2. Fucking hell that was good. I doubt we’ve played better this season, certainly not for 90 minutes anyway. We’ve had brilliant spells in games but this was great more or less the whole way through. Aside from a spell before half time when Anthony Taylor completely lost control of the game, we were utterly dominant. Newcastle actually deserve credit for causing us some problems. As much as they’ve been struggling of late, nobody could have lived with us tonight and they’ve done well to score two and give us some awkward defensive moments. Their keeper is the main reason they didn’t concede ten though. We fucking battered them. It’s mad that it was 0-0 at half time, but Mo stepped up big time in the second half. It’s a measure of the man that he said afterwards his mindset at half time was that there’s no way he’s heading off to AFCON off the back on that first half and the missed pen. And he went out in the second half and basically won us the game. His mentality is unmatched, he’s got that superstar gene where they just have utter belief in themselves no matter how things are going. He was fucking relentless in that second half and Dan Burn will have nightmares about this game. Curtis was sensational too. He’s so important for us now and he’s the first midfielder on my team sheet. We’re a better team with him in it. What about Endo again too? He’s boss, I love him. Thankfully Macca is back now because otherwise there’d be a massive Endo shaped hole in the team for the next few weeks. The atmosphere was great tonight too, especially considering it fucking pissed down all night. I got soaked before the game, I got soaked during the game because the Main Stand does not stop the rain coming in anymore because the roof is so high. And then I got soaked walking back to the car. It was the same for most people inside Anfield but you’d never know based on the atmosphere. This was the kind of noise you normally get on a warm early April evening in a European game. We’re in a title race and we’re now past the halfway point. So technically this is the start of the run in so Anfield is going to be rocking more often than not now. Klopp's on-pitch celebrations afterwards had a little more to them than usual too. The anticipation is building now, we could be heading for something special in a few months.

  24. After their come from behind win against Villa in the previous game, United were feeling good about themselves. Had they turned a corner? Yes, and then they walked straight into a train. Losers. They went to Forest and were fucking dogshit again. Forest had too much desire and pace for them to handle. Typified by Gibbs-White and United old boy Elanga who ran them ragged. Elanga has pissed the United fans off because he 'over celebrated' by grabbing the Forest badge on his shirt and dancing in the dressing room afterwards. I don't blame him, they spent £180m on Antony and Sancho because they didn't think he was good enough. And he's miles better than the pair of them. Gibbs-White is fun to watch. He’s great on the ball but he’s got fire in his belly too. Early on he went right through McTominay, then got up and then wiped out Evans too and then screamed at the ref that he won the ball. He did win the ball both times but the ref booked him anyway, presumably just for the aggression. Fans love that though, it gets everyone going and Forest were just much more up for the game than United. Dominguez put Forest ahead but their keeper was doing his level best to let United back into it. He’d already got away with one ridiculous clearance but he didn’t learn from it and passed straight to Garnacho who fed Rashford for the equaliser. Gibbs-White won it with eight minutes to go when he fired in from the edge of the box. It was very similar to the first goal and it’s funny because all season Goldbridge has been banging on about how they never pick up midfield runners on the edge of the box. He knows more than Eric Ten Jarg does. Maybe they should give him the job next. He couldn’t do much worse and at least he’d be interesting in his post match interviews. Not like this bald weirdo.
