End of an era? Salah injury & Liverpool’...

THE ATHLETIC
About this episode

Simon Hughes and James Pearce join Tony Evans to assess the latest on Salah’s injury. Could that be the last time we see him in a Liverpool shirt?


There are signs of a new era emerging. Alexander Isak opened his Anfield account, while Florian Wirtz also got on the scoresheet — but are Liverpool starting to figure out how to get the best out of their big-money signings?


The panel also reflect on Liverpool winning the Premier League exactly one year ago today. Does Arne Slot deserve some more slack and what does he need this summer to ease the pressure?
