Ryan Gravenberch ban truth as Community Shield theory debunked after Liverpool red card
Ryan Gravenberch will not miss the Community Shield due to the red card he received on the final day of the Premier League season. Instead, the midfielder's suspension will carry over to the start of the new league campaign in August. It means Gravenberch, who played 49 games this term, will be eligible for the annual curtain raiser when Liverpool takes on Crystal Palace in the Community Shield. The date for that match has not been set but it will be played at Wembley on the weekend of August 9-10. The new Premier League season will start the following week, with the initial fixture list to be released on June 18.

The midfielder was shown a straight red card in the 68th minute of the Reds' final match of the season, also against Palace. Having miscontrolled the ball as Liverpool's last man back, Gravenberch lunged to regain possession but instead felled Daichi Kamada with the Palace man set to have a clear run at goal. Referee Darren England had little choice but to administer a straight red card despite teammate Virgil van Dijk's remonstrations. It meant a disappointing end to what was a fantastic season for Gravenberch, who won the Premier League Young Player of the Year Award. The 23-year-old started 37 of the 38 league games, the exception being the trip to Chelsea immediately after Liverpool was crowned champion. He is also likely to be selected in the PFA Premier League Team of the Season. Gravenberch's transformation into a holding midfielder proved to be integral to Liverpool's successful campaign, especially after missing out on Martin Zubimendi the previous summer. The Dutchman's impressive displays, flanked alongside Alexis Mac Allister were instrumental in Liverpool amassing such a huge lead at the top of the table heading into the spring months. 'During a phone call in the first conversation I had with Arne, he said to me: 'I see you as a No.8 but I want to try you as a No.6'," Gravenberch told The Athletic in a recent interview. "I played there against Manchester United in pre-season and after that game, he just put me there. I was like: 'OK, let's do it'. From that moment, I only played as a No.6. "I didn't play a lot in that position before but this season, that position has made me who I am now. I am not naturally a defensive midfielder. I also like to drive forward with the ball. It's been good so far."

Jeffrey Schlupp departs from Crystal Palace after eight-and-a-half-year stint
London: Jeffrey Schlupp will leave Crystal Palace this summer, after spending eight-and-a-half years with the club. The 32-year-old has made 247 appearances for the club since moving to South London from Leicester City in January 2017. "It's been an incredible eight years playing for this club. I've met some great people – the Chairman, the gaffer, and all the staff I've met over the years – and it's meant a lot to have played for Crystal Palace. A big 'thank you' to this group, who have achieved something so special. "You ask anybody about the Palace fans, and they know about the atmosphere that they create, and the number of times they've pulled us through in difficult times. They've been our 12th man, so thank you to all the fans who have always supported me. Hopefully, I've done you proud. I'll definitely see you again soon," said Schlupp. A product of the Leicester City academy, Schlupp made his senior debut in 2011 following a brief loan to Brentford in League One. He went on to make 150 appearances for the club, winning the EFL Championship in 2013–14 and was a part of the historic Foxes side that lifted the Premier League in 2015–16. Schlupp's ability to fit in various different roles, offering important squad flexibility to the side, made him a regular pick in numerous Palace squads. During his stay in South London, Schlupp scored 19 times while also providing 17 assists. In August 2023, Schlupp made his 200th appearance for the club. With 220 Premier League appearances for Palace to his name, he has made the fourth-highest number of appearances for the team in the competition. He departs from Palace with an FA Cup winner's medal to add to his collection, having featured in the third-round win over Stockport County. After 16 appearances for Palace this season, Schlupp has spent the second half of the campaign on loan at Celtic, where he went on to win the Scottish Premiership title. "Across nine separate seasons with Crystal Palace, Jeffrey has made many an important contribution to the Football Club – and scored some incredible goals! 'Whatever has been asked of him – whatever the role, whenever the time–he has given his utmost to, and it speaks volumes that he has made such a great impression in different systems and under different managers. 'Successful squads are built on players of Jeffrey's calibre and character, and we have much to thank him for as he moves on from SE25. He leaves with our heartfelt gratitude and the very best wishes of everyone at Crystal Palace," added Chairman Steve Parish.

Glasner all but rules out Leipzig move by committing to Palace
Crystal Palace coach Oliver Glasner is planning to stay in London despite reported interest from RB Leipzig. The Austrian led Palace to FA Cup glory this month and they will compete in the Europa League next season. Advertisement "Again in football you never know for 100%, but 99% I will be the manager of Crystal Palace next season," the 50 year-old told Britain's Sky Sports on Wednesday. German media had said he was a favourite along with Como's Cesc Fàbregas for the vacant Leipzig job. The Red Bulls missed out on Europe this term for the first time in their Bundesliga history.
