🚨 Steve McManaman backs Alexander Isak to challenge Erling Haaland for the Golden Boot: 🎙️ Interviewer: “Steve, you’ve backed Alexander Isak from the beginning. Do you genuinely believe he can challenge Erling Haaland for the Premier League Golden Boot this season? Steve McManaman: “I said it before the season started, and I’ll say it again: if Alexander Isak stays fit, he can score 30 or more goals this season. I genuinely believe that. People can laugh now, but don’t come back in April pretending nobody saw it coming! “Look at the quality the man possesses. The movement, the composure, the way he makes difficult finishes look ridiculously easy. He doesn’t need ten chances to hurt you. Give him one good opportunity, and he can change the entire game. That’s what elite strikers do” “And what I love most is that he’s beginning to combine so well with Gakpo and Barcola. You can see the understanding developing. Imagine what happens when those three completely click! The runs, the link-up play, the chances they can create for each other. There’s so much more to come from this attack” “Let’s be honest, this Liverpool team is still a work in progress. Under Iraola, there are things to build, partnerships to develop and moments when everything won’t look perfect. But that’s exactly why I’m excited. Once this team finds its rhythm, Isak could be banging in goals week after week” “And yes, I believe he can be right there competing with Haaland for the Golden Boot. Haaland has earned his reputation, and nobody should underestimate him. But why should Isak be written off? Why should we assume the race is already decided? “I’ve never given up on Alexander Isak because I know the quality he possesses. I want to see him healthy, confident and enjoying his football. When a striker like that feels the love of his teammates and the supporters, you can get something special” “Liverpool fans, keep believing in your number nine. If he stays fit and this attack clicks the way I think it can, we might be looking back at this conversation and laughing. Thirty goals? Don’t rule it out. The Golden Boot race could get very interesting!”

🚨 Jude Bellingham reveals the emotional message he sent Harry Kane after his 2026 Ballon d’Or triumph: 🎙️ Interviewer: “Jude, Harry Kane has finally won the 2026 Ballon d’Or. What was the first thing you said to him? Jude Bellingham: “I sent him a message straight away. Honestly, I don’t even know how to explain how happy I am for him. Since day one, I’ve been supporting Harry to win this award. I’ve always believed he deserved it, and I never stopped saying it” “People see the goals, the trophies and the individual awards, but I see the man behind all of that. I see what he gives to England, how much pressure he carries, and how he keeps showing up for his country even when the expectations are enormous” “We’ve fought together in that England shirt. We’ve shared difficult nights, painful disappointments and moments when we came so close to giving this country something special. I’ve seen his hunger, his discipline and how badly he wants to win something for England. That’s why this means so much to me” “My message to him was simple: ‘Harry, brother, I’m so happy for you. You deserve every second of this. I’ve believed in you from the beginning, and seeing you lift that trophy makes me proud. Now let’s bring something special home for England, because I still believe our biggest moment together is waiting for us.’ “Harry has given so much to English football. Tonight, the world has recognised what we in that dressing room have known for years. He’s not just our captain. He’s someone we respect, someone we fight alongside, and someone whose success feels personal to all of us.”
