Gregg Evans and James Pearce join Tony Evans to reflect on a convincing Champions League win in Marseille.

The panel assess Mohamed Salah’s role, a standout night for Dominik Szoboszlai, and whether the Hungarian midfielder is now not just Liverpool’s most important player — but a future captain.

There’s also discussion on Liverpool’s record-breaking finances, as The Athletic’s Chris Weatherspoon joins the pod to break down the club topping £700m in revenue for the first time and what it means for wages, spending and competitiveness.

Finally, attention turns back to domestic matters, with a tricky trip to Bournemouth looming and questions over whether Liverpool can reset their mentality and translate European confidence into Premier League points.

Andy Jones and James Pearce join Tony Evans to discuss that hugely frustrating draw at Anfield against Burnley. Liverpool remain unbeaten — but it doesn’t feel like it!

The panel ask the uncomfortable questions about Arne Slot and this most underwhelming of unbeaten runs. Were the boos at full-time justified? With only five wins in the last 17 league games, is this a run of bad luck, bad management, or something more worrying?

The guys discuss the latest on Liverpool’s transfer business as Manchester City close in on Marc Guehi, and attention turns to the Champions League and a tricky trip to Marseille, as Liverpool look for answers — and perhaps salvation — in Europe.

Andy Jones and James Pearce join Tony Evans to discuss the return of the Premier League and their concerns over squad depth and selection headaches. Are Liverpool one injury away from crisis?

The panel examine Liverpool’s wafer-thin defensive cover, debate whether a January move for reinforcements is now unavoidable, and consider the consequences of standing still in the transfer market.

There’s also discussion around Liverpool’s attacking identity, the return of Mohamed Salah and a preview of Burnley on Saturday — a fixture that suddenly feels like a must-win!
