About this listen

James Pearce and Simon Hughes join Tony Evans to assess what a quiet deadline means for Arne Slot’s squad, including what to expect from summer arrival Jeremy Jacquet and whether Liverpool are taking a risk on depth. Does Liverpool’s January transfer window close with more questions than answers?


The panel dig into Richard Hughes’ recent comments on patient long-term recruitment, debate concerns around centre-back options and squad management, as well as respond to criticism over Slot’s rotation and youth development.


Finally, attention turns to a huge clash with Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday.
