After his remarkable performance in midweek for Liverpool in the Champions League, Alisson Becker has been receiving a lot of praise.

The Brazilian international made ten saves to help the Reds beat PSG 1-0, and he was correctly named Man of the Match.

And since then Arne Slot and his fellow professionals have lauded the shot-stopper.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of facing Southampton, Slot said: He saves shots!

I’m delighted and comforted that he will remain with us in a vitally important role as we use the new Everton Stadium as a launchpad for regeneration of the local area.

"Kevin has been integral in ensuring Premier League survival in this difficult period.  By resolving PSR issues through significant player trading we believe we have an extraordinary squad that can be the foundation for future success.  This future success will also be supported by our talented sporting department assembled by Kevin.  We are pleased Kevin will remain with us in this interim period."

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim cannot see how he'll be given the same time as Mikel Arteta to get things right at Old Trafford.

Speaking after Man United's 1-1 draw in the Europa League round of 16 against Real Socieded, the former Sporting Lisbon boss previewed the game against Arsenal at the weekend.

And one of the questions he was asked was about Arteta's longevity, given the Spaniard arrived at the Emirates in 2019.

But Amorim believes he must deliver success or he won't get the same time.

He said: "I will not have the time that Arteta have.

"It's a different club, so we just need to survive during these games.

"I think it's a different club.

The way Arteta dealt with that is an inspiration, but I will not have the time."

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was asked about Jack Grealish during his pre-match press conference, but he refused to comment on it.

The England international was spotted in the North Biddick Club in Washington, Tyne & Wear last weekend on his day off.

Later that night, he was seen leaving The Dubliner pub in Newcastle looking a bit unsteady before being escorted into a people carrier.

Grealish is allowed to do what he wants during his time off, and there are reports from people who were with him, that he put a large amount of money behind the bar.

However, there are some who feel it's unprofessional for Grealish to be seen like that.

But there are any concerns from Guardiola, he refused to reveal them publicly.

When asked, he said: "He's so famous and people follow him.

"Nothing to comment."

Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Posteocoglou has launched a staunch defence of goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario after a misunderstanding with supporters last night.

After losing 1-0 to AZ Alkmaar, the Italian international led a group of players over to the travelling fans.

He raised his arms in the air in what looked to be an attempt to get more from them, which didn't go down too well.

The Spurs fans responded with some angry words towards their goalkeeper before he trudged off.

But Postecoglou believes Vicario had the right intentions.

He said: "Vic is very, very passionate about this football club and very passionate about what we're trying to do here, and he wants to win and he wants everyone on board with that.

"The guy is one of the purest human beings you have ever come across, mate, so whatever he does he does for what he thinks is best for the team and for the football club because he really cares."

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has praised the impact of his substitutes and the attitude of those in his squad who don't play as much ahead of facing Southampton.

The Reds were rescued in midweek by Harvey Elliott, who came off the bench against Paris Saint-Germain to score a late winner.

Elliott's game time has been reduced this season due to injury and the form of those ahead of him.

But Slot spent time picking him out during his pre-match press conference.

He said: "I see the advantages of playing with the same team, but I am aware you cannot play the same XI every week, so I have rotated.

"Others don't get the time they deserve, Elliott is a good example, but he is in competition with [Mohamed] Salah and [Dominik] Szoboszlai.

So Anthony understands."

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has been speaking to the media ahead of their game against Southampton this weekend.

The Reds are flying high at the top of the Premier League and are also edging towards the next round of the Champions League after a 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain.

Slot largely has a fit squad to choose from but was without Cody Gakpo in midweek.

The Dutchman travelled with the team to Paris but watched on from the sidelines, and he is doubtful to be involved this weekend as well.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, Slot said: He didn't train yesterday yet, let's see if he can train today.

But he's trained every day this week."
