Show Notes
James Pearce & Simon Hughes join Tony Evans to assess Richard Hughes’ time at Liverpool, from appointing Arne Slot and overseeing a Premier League title win to spending more than £670m on reshaping the squad. Was Hughes a success or a failure, and what does Liverpool’s next sporting director need to fix?
We also look at Alexander Isak’s flying start to this season after his two goals against Ipswich, his growing understanding with Cody Gakpo and Florian Wirtz, and whether Gakpo’s form means Bradley Barcola will have to wait for his chance.
And with Champions League football returning, Liverpool face a much tougher test against Atletico Madrid. Who starts and will this be the first real chance to judge whether Iraola’s ideas can work against elite opposition?
