Simon Hughes and James Pearce join Tony Evans to unpack a big week at Liverpool FC — on and off the pitch.

With Mohamed Salah raising concerns about dressing-room standards and leadership after his departure, the panel debate whether Liverpool are facing a cultural reset — and who, if anyone, is ready to step up.

There’s also reaction to breaking news around ticket prices before the focus turns to a huge summer: is a holding midfielder the priority, and do Liverpool need more than just talent — but personality too?
