Although some elements remain, most have now become part of mainstream society and require adaptation and change over time to remain effective and relevant to modern-day needs. Tom Hamilton, Senior Writer – Oct 5, 2024 at 11:01 AM ETClose* Joined ESPN in 2011* Covered two Olympic Games, Rugby World Cups and British & Irish Lions tours since then* Was previously Rugby Editor before transitioning into Senior Writer status* Arne Slot fears Alisson will miss “a few weeks. Liverpool face an exhausting run of matches after their break, and Slot fears Alisson will miss some club action, with Liverpool hosting Chelsea on Oct 20 and then travelling to RB Leipzig in Europe on Oct 23 in both cases as part of Champions League competition. “Typically when players walk off like that it means they won’t make it into Brazil’s squad and I wouldn’t expect him to play immediately afterwards,” Slot commented. “This process could take up to several weeks.” With Alisson potentially unavailable, Slot will turn to Kelleher as his replacement, even with Jaros’ cameo appearance at the end of their sixth Premier League victory this term.

Moreover, I was blessed to inherit an excellent team and staff with which to continue producing impressive results.” “Crystal Palace are still searching for their first win this season after three draws and four defeats so far this campaign. Oliver Glasner was left fuming by what he perceived to be an obvious penalty being missed during the second half when Marc Guehi was taken down in the penalty box by Virgil van Dijk and taken out by van Dijk’s tackle. Glasner lamented their failure to secure a penalty when Marc Guehi was held by two hands during their defeat; but was pleased with aspects of Palace’s performance during the second half. “That performance was good,” Glasner commented. “We had an outstanding start, but Liverpool were unplayable in the first half, playing their trademark style of attacking football with runs behind and weaving into spaces behind. While they deservedly took an early lead, our reaction in the second half encouraged all of us and gave me plenty of belief to go forward and score goals!”
