Liverpool

Lucas Leiva is gone from Liverpool, the club he called home for 10 years. The Brazilian defensive midfielder's move to Lazio was made official Tuesday, but it had been a done deal for quite a while — judging by the amount of farewell Lucas content Liverpool seemed to have at the ready, that is.

Included was an open letter to Liverpool fans, and this very heartfelt interview:

"Liverpool, as a club and as a city, is a unique place."

Finally, after transfer negotiations and fees and medicals and training and visa issues and a very short Paris vacation, Mohamed Salah appeared on the pitch for Liverpool, wearing a Liverpool jersey and everything. And, has been the habit of big EPL signings in the last few days (Rooney, Lacazette, etc.), he scored on his debut. Liverpool drew 1-1 with Wigan.
