Tracking his career
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has heaped praise on goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga following the club’s 4-0 win over Everton in the Premier League on Sunday. The Spain international had fallen out-of-favour for the goalkeeping role over the past month but he has recently redeemed himself with back-to-back clean sheets in all competitions.
The match between Manchester City and Real Madrid was a draw in the last 16 teams of the Champions League. However, Manchester City has enjoyed a lot of draws in some of the recent matches of the competition, but it seems now they have run out of their lucky time zone. They topped the group at the Champions League that featured Dinamo Zagreb, Atalanta, and Shakhtar Donetsk. They have been handed Schalke and Basel at the current stage in the last two seasons.
Stephen Warnock is the former defender of Liverpool. According to his words, the team of the Manchester City club must not fear the current side of Real Madrid. He commented that he does not think that it is the same side of Real Madrid who was successful in beating Liverpool in the year 2018. It is absolutely not possible for them to beat a team like Manchester City without Cristiano Ronaldo. In regard to this, he also stated that this is the perfect time to show what they can do and play them. They might get back Aymeric Laporte in their team.

The Senegal international has been with the Reds for the past three years and during this period, he has transformed into one of the Premier League’s best forwards and has contributed goals at regular intervals.
Mane ended the previous campaign with his best-ever season tally of 26 goals across all competitions and he has continued in the same vein of form this term with eight goals to date. Speaking on Sky Sports, Warnock said that Mane has been immense for the Reds in recent seasons and his partnership with Andy Robertson is mesmerising to watch.

The Magpies have lost their first two league games of the season against Arsenal and Norwich City and this sees them in the relegation mix.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Warnock said that Bruce has plenty of experience managing at the Premier League level and he is positive that the veteran can transform the club’s results over a period of time, he said: “I think Steve Bruce has bags of experience, I wouldn’t be too concerned just yet. They’ve got new players in there, Joelinton has got to adapt to the game, to the pace of the Premier League, and there are other players who have come in as well. Erm I’d give Steve Bruce time, he is more than experienced enough to deal with these problems.”

The Scotland international has been a revelation since the £8m move to Anfield from Hull City and last season, he was exceptional with 13 assists across all competitions for the Reds.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Warnock said that he has been impressed with the progress of both Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold over the past year. He added to reserve special praise for Robertson stating that the Scot has been able to make the difference in an attacking point of view without leaving any gap at the back for the opposition to exploit.
He said: “Both Andy and Trent on the other side had incredible seasons. I think last season with the protection that Andy got from the midfielders, whether that be Fabinho, James Milner, Gini Wijnaldum or Jordan Henderson, he knew he was able to make those runs forward without leaving gaps behind him. When he is going forward, the quality of delivery he possesses is brilliant. Your modern day full-back can often attack, but can he defend? Robbo can do both comfortably and for me, and I’ve said it before, he is arguably the best left-back in the world at the moment.”
Robertson had found himself competing with Alberto Moreno for the left-back role during the early stages of the 2017/18 season. However, 25-year-old managed to soon take over the position with Moreno tending to make mistakes, and he has not looked back ever since with a string of consistent performances.
Liverpool managed to win the Champions League during the previous campaign and that meant that they ended a seven-year wait for a trophy. However, the Reds could not celebrate Premier League success after finishing one point behind eventual champions Manchester City but they have the chance to give it another go during the forthcoming campaign.
Sky Sports reporter Guillem Balague has said that Liverpool have the quality within their ranks to overpower Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final. The Reds are regarded as the underdogs heading into the double-legged tie but Balague has warned the Blaugrana that they cannot afford any defensive mistakes against the Merseyside giants.
Sky Sports pundit Stephen Warnock has backed Mohamed Salah to find his scoring form as Liverpool embark on the final two months of the Premier League campaign. The Egypt international has failed to score in eight successive games for the Reds this year, but that has recently generated concerns regarding his form in the run-in.
Former Liverpool ace Stephen Warnock has said that Angel Gomes and Tahith Chong are two players, who could make the step up from the Manchester United reserve side. The Red Devils have been fond of promoting young graduates into the first-team over the years with Marcus Rashford being the most-recent one, who has earned plenty of plaudits.
Irish international David Meyler has completed his switch from Championship outfit Reading to Coventry City on a loan deal that will see him remain at the club until the end of the current season.
Sky Sports pundit Stephen Warnock believes Leeds United have landed themselves a big coup after completing the signing of Kiko Casilla on a free transfer from Real Madrid. The 32-year-old has been a proven winner with Los Blancos in recent seasons and Warnock feels the shot-stopper could make the underlining difference in Leeds’ promotion push under Marcelo Bielsa.
