James Pearce and Simon Hughes join Tony Evans to dissect the chaotic defeat to Manchester City — from Szoboszlai’s stunning opener to VAR controversy, a red card, and two late City goals.
The panel debate whether Liverpool were hard done by or simply running out of steam, before attention turns to a worrying league table. Is Champions League qualification starting to look unlikely?
There’s also discussion on Caoimhin Kelleher’s candid comments on Diogo Jota, Curtis Jones’ contract situation, Harvey Elliott’s loan dilemma, fresh injury concerns — and whether Liverpool can steady themselves with a crucial run of fixtures ahead. Next up, a daunting trip to the Stadium of Light.
