Summary

Simon Hughes and Andy Jones join Tony Evans to reflect on the 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain with zero shots on target, just 26% possession, and Arne Slot admitting his side were in “survival mode”. The panel assess Slot’s tactical calls, including the decision to deploy a five-man defence and leave Mohamed Salah, unused, on the bench. There’s also a closer look at Hugo Ekitike’s difficult return to Paris, what Alexander Isak’s comeback could mean for the run-in, and whether the tie is already beyond Liverpool ahead of the second leg at Anfield. Plus, reaction to growing unrest around the club — from ticket price rises to wider questions about FSG’s stewardship — and whether the disconnect between fans, players and ownership is turning into a broader identity crisis.
