Mikel Arteta's side put the pressure on by beating Fulham on Tuesday night, only for Arne Slot's Reds to respond with a win of their own 24 hours later.

That victory, a 1-0 triumph over Everton, was overshadowed by the debate around a first-half challenge by James Tarkowski on Alexis Mac Allister.

Slot may have a busier time up ahead, especially if others follow Trent Alexander-Arnold in leaving Anfield.

Everton have condemned the threats and abuse directed at James Tarkowski after Wednesday's derby.

The statement comes after the player's wife Samantha spoke out about the comments which have come the player's way.

"Everton is aware of threats made towards James Tarkowski and his family on social media.

The club is liaising with James and his wife Samantha, and stands ready to engage with the social media companies and assist the police with any potential investigation."

In an Instagram story, Samantha had called some of the comments "beyond disgusting".

The Reds remain on track to win the Premier League, but other teams are expected to be stronger next term.

"We are watching a very good Liverpool team on the brink of greatness," Carragher wrote in The Telegraph.

"My suspicion is that during the course of his reign, Arne Slot and the recruitment team above him will have constructed a better squad, regardless of whether they match or eclipse this year’s likely success."
