Oliviyah Edwards commits to South Carolina: Five-star, slam-dunking recruit formerly pledged to Tennessee
Five-star recruit Oliviyah Edwards commits to South Carolina after decommitting from Tennessee.
Liverpool's recent performance has been poor, suffering multiple defeats, but they now have a chance to qualify for the Champions League with back-to-back league wins. The team is five points ahead of Brighton, but challenges remain.
Liverpool limped into April with things looking downright dire. A 2-1 defeat at Brighton in the league was followed up with a 4-0 defeat at Manchester City in the FA Cup was followed up by a 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain that was a lot more lopsided than the scoreline suggest.
The season up until that point had been very bad and things in the moment were very bad.
Now, while the weight of a shit season without silverware still hangs around their necks and worries about trajectory remain for a side that has seen its pressing, passing, fitness, and finishing seemingly on a steady decline dating back to at least January of 2025, well, things at least donât look quite that awful.
Thanks to the Premier League officially securing a fifth Champions League place and with back-to-back league wins giving them a five-point buffer over top chasers Brighton, Arne Slotâs identity-less Reds at least look in pole position to qualify for Europeâs premier cup competitionâbut thereâs still work to do.
âWe won the derby obviously [which] was an important game for us and the fans,â Jeremie Frimpong said when asked where things stand for the team at the moment. âThe spirits are good now, everyone is excited to go for the match on Saturday.
âCrystal Palace have beaten us three times this season. Obviously we want to show that we can beat them. Weâre looking forward to the match. I feel like the matches coming up are really importantâfive more matches and we want to win all of them.
âI feel like we can do that. Obviously not finish the season on a âhighâ but we can finish the season on wins. Thatâs what we want to do so weâll go for it. We want to finish strongly and get Champions League. These matches are like finals so weâre going to give it our all.â
Liverpool suffered a 2-1 defeat to Brighton, a 4-0 loss to Manchester City in the FA Cup, and a 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain.
Liverpool is currently in a strong position to qualify for the Champions League, holding a five-point lead over Brighton after securing back-to-back league wins.
Liverpool must overcome concerns about their declining performance metrics, including pressing, passing, fitness, and finishing, as they aim to secure a Champions League spot.

Palace, though, are never pushovers. As Frimpong highlights, theyâve beat Liverpool three times already this season, in the Community Shield, League Cup, and away in the league. Currently sat 13th and with nothing to play for, they should also be the less motivated of the two sides on Saturday.
âMy first match for Liverpool they beat us in the Community Shield,â he added. âThey knocked us out of the cup and obviously they beat us at their house. Itâs not good getting beat three times so this is another meaningful game. We have to go and show what weâve got.â
