  • More Rio please — Wolves win and Istanbul awaits
    Mar 9 2026

    Gregg Evans and James Pearce join Tony Evans to break down the FA Cup win at Molineux, including Ngumoha’s eye-catching display and whether this is the moment he becomes a genuine first-team option under Arne Slot.


    The panel also discuss Andy Robertson’s match-winning contribution — a goal and an assist in two electric minutes — and what the left-back had to say about his future at Liverpool FC amid growing competition for places.


    There’s also reaction to Ryan Gravenberch signing a new six-year deal, a listener question on how busy Liverpool need to be in the summer transfer window, and a look ahead to Tuesday night’s Champions League last-16 clash away to Galatasaray in Istanbul. What must Liverpool do differently to avoid a repeat of their defeat in Turkey earlier this season?

  • Same old story as momentum halted at Molineux
    Mar 4 2026

    James Pearce and Andy Jones are with Tony Evans to react to a FIFTH game Liverpool have lost in stoppage time this season after going down 2-1 to Wolves.


    The panel get stuck into the nature of the performance against the side sitting bottom of the Premier League, discuss Arne Slot's post-match comments and question where it leaves the Reds in their quest for Champions League qualification.


    There's also discussion on Hugo Ekitike's fading performances within games before debating the lack of productivity from the wide players.

  • Have set-pieces taken the joy out of the Premier League?
    Mar 2 2026

    Andy Jones and James Pearce join Tony Evans to unpack a goal-fest at Anfield, where set-pieces once again proved decisive — prompting a wider debate sparked by Arne Slot’s claim that dead-ball dominance may be taking some of the joy out of football.


    The panel dig into standout performances from Alexis Mac Allister, Virgil van Dijk and Hugo Ekitike, ask why Liverpool look so dangerous from corners all of a sudden, and question the consistency of VAR decisions after yet another controversial weekend.


    There’s also a deep dive into Liverpool FC’s newly released financial accounts — record revenues, a Premier League-high wage bill and what it all means for future spending — plus a look ahead to Wolves under the lights on Tuesday night.
