Liverpool finalise move to replace Andy Robertson

Liverpool know that they are likely to only have one more year of at the club. The Scottish left-back's contract expires next season and the signing of Milos Kerkez this summer has signified a more low-profile role for him in the upcoming campaign. He's being phased out. LFC x New Era Shop Now LFC Signed Merch Shop Now LFC x Titleist Shop Now Next summer, a replacement will need to be brought in and finding someone to play as Kerkez's understudy is going to be a little bit tricky, since most signings are adamant about their playing time. But the Reds might already have a solution in mind and plans are being put in place for the operation to replace Robertson to be seamless, when the time comes. An exceptional talent waits in the wings. Liverpool agree new contract for confirmed loanee One player who has been desperate for his chance in a Red shirt is Owen Beck, who has been on four different loan moves throughout his career - Famalicao, Bolton, Dundee and Blackburn. Each time, he has come back to the club as a far more developed player and the opportunity to bring him into the first-team has been considered, but nothing has really managed to come to fruition. However, his latest loan spell is going to be at Derby County, as confirmed by Liverpool earlier on Friday afternoon, and it follows the successful agreement of a new long-term deal with the Reds. So what does this mean? Well, the 22-year-old is clearly rated incredibly highly and letting his deal until 2026 expire was not considered an option for the club. His future is going to be incredibly bright and once he returns to Liverpool next season, after a spell at Derby, he might finally get his wishes.

Match Tactical: Manchester United vs West Ham United

Manchester United are set to kick off their Premier League Summer Series tour to the US when they take on West Ham United. Coming off an understated goalless draw with Leeds United, Ruben Amorim's men will surely look to be more effective in front of goal as they look to bring cheer to their American fanbase. While Amorim will almost certainly look to rotate his squad with a flood of half-time substitutions, there are some common tactical decisions that the Man United manager should consider taking if he hopes to get the better of the Hammers in New Jersey. Learning from past mistakes During the Leeds game, we saw United take a barrage of shots, yet with little accuracy. Out of their 18 attempts on goal, only four reached their target, while two unluckily hit the woodwork. (Sky Sports) What's particularly alarming about this statistic is that the vast majority of United's chances came from the centre of the box, where players were facing the goal head-on, albeit at varying distances from the goal. A minority of chances, namely five, were taken from tight angles outside of the goalposts' jurisdiction. One could only hope that Amorim spotted this lack of shooting accuracy and has worked on it with his players during training. After all, it's incredibly wasteful for his players to complete all of the necessary work to create 19 chances, only to fall at the final hurdle each and every time. Although it may be important to reflect on the previous match, some bad habits from last season persist. Speed things up If one looks at the attacking momentum chart from the Leeds' draw, we see how United continued a long-standing frustrating habit from last season. With the exception of the final minutes of the second half, United's attacking intensity was underwhelming, with the team very seldom bursting forward at a quick pace to knock Leeds' defence off balance. By exhibiting a slow build-up, they gave the opposition sufficient time to drop back and defend in comfort, squandering their chance to secure what should have been a straightforward win. While Amorim's starting lineup remains to be seen, it would be good for him to leverage the pace of his quickest attackers. These could be long-standing players such as Amad Diallo or new talents such as Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo. Whoever ends up playing, Amorim should make the most of the fast legs at his disposal. For United, this pre-season marks a moment of rebuild, with fans hoping that their club can bounce back from what was a lacklustre debut campaign under Amorim, to say the least. In addition to being achievable, a victory over West Ham would go a long way to restoring the confidence of an anxious fanbase that certainly deserves more to cheer about than what they've been receiving in recent times.
