THE NOTEBOOK: Ed Sheeran makes his presence felt after buying minority stake in Ipswich, while one Liverpool star's absence could provide a clue on his future

Liverpool got the Arne Slot era off to a winning start on Saturday, with the Reds beating Ipswich 2-0 at Portman Road in their opening match of the Premier League season.

Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah were on the score sheet to make what was initially a nervous game more comfortable, with second half chances arriving at will.

For Ipswich, it was an encouraging-enough return to the Premier League in front of their home faithful, with Kieran McKenna's work evident in much of his side's play.
