Interview with Olivier Giroud in Los Angeles. He has had a difficult start, facing burglary, earthquakes and the fires. But he looks at home in California.

Since I arrived in LA we've had earthquake, and 'bad experience', admits Giroud

OLIVIER GIROUD always wished to finish his career in  California — but life has not quite been the dream he imagined so far. The Frenchman suits Los Angeles, sitting in the sun after training …

Liverpool looked to be cruising to the semi-finals, but were dragged into a bit of scrap out of nowhere. Southampton fans can be encouraged by the fight shown in the second half.

Arne Slot watches on from stands as much-changed Reds cling on to make last four

ARNE SLOT will have enjoyed the shelter of Southampton’s press box, but he will not have been sitting comfortably. The Liverpool manager, in the stands due to suspension, watched as his much change…

Very odd game. Brighton all over Palace at times but far too soft when it counted, Sarr taking full advantage. An unfortunate intervention from Michael Oliver ahead of the opener too. #CPFC #bhafc

Brighton 1 Palace 3: Sarr scores twice after Chalobah as Eagles stun rivals

ISMAILA SARR inspired Crystal Palace to rip through rivals Brighton, with a helping hand from Michael Oliver. The Eagles ended Fabian Hurzeler’s unbeaten home run in the Premier League, leaving The…

Chaotic opener at Brighton. Crystal Palace get a couple of corners after Baleba was unable to stop Eze due to running into referee Oliver. Chalobah then scores from the 2nd corner, with the ball coming off Van Hecke and Sarr before being put in. #CPFC #bhafc

Despite a number of key figures at West Ham wanting a change of manager, Lopetegui limps on and is set to be in charge against Wolves on Monday. #WHUFC

West Ham hierarchy will discuss Julen Lopetegui's future today, with a number feeling it is time to make a change. Potter, Terzic and Conceicao in the running. Terzic the favourite of some key figures but doubts over whether he wants the job. #WHUFC

Maxwel Cornet's Southampton loan could be cut short in January after just two starts. West Ham have held talks with a few clubs overseas about another loan for the remainder of the season. Southampton want a LW in January but need to free up loan spots first. #WHUFC #SaintsFC

Some wonderfully hopeless football from Southampton again. Most of them struggling to make passes/decisions when there is no pressure on them, let alone playing out from the back.

Goodbye Dylan Jones, editor of the Evening/London Standard. Moonlighted as editor of Aston Martin’s corporate magazine while making lots of ES staff redundant, flew to LA to review Joni Mitchell for a London paper and wrote about his suits, tried to recreate a local paper as a 90s glossy magazine.

Report from St. Mary's where Salah sends Liverpool eight clear. They were caused more trouble than anyone expected by Southampton, who will be ruing more costly mistakes. Russell Martin can be pleased with the performance but must wonder why they only turn up against the bigger teams.

Southampton 2 Liverpool 3: Salah heroics send Reds EIGHT points clear in Prem

ANYONE who suggested last summer that it might have been the time for Mohamed Salah to move on must be wishing they never actually said it. Liverpool’s Egyptian King delivered a brace to send the R…

Ryan Fraser playing on the left of a back five, which includes Flynn Downes, and up against Mo Salah. Should be lively.

Interview with Quique Setien, who spent a week touring English football and fell in love. Now wants to work here. The references on his CV are very impressive, including Pep and Ancelotti. Enzo Maresca was so excited to hear he was in London he invited him down to Chelsea two days in a row.

Ex-Barcelona boss, 66, keen on Premier League job and has visited three clubs
