Summary

Liverpool enjoyed a near-perfect start to their Premier League campaign with a 4-1 win over Norwich City - but there have been some grumblings around their defensive display. Picking apart these concerns are Kristian Walsh and Josh Williams, who also look at the 90 minutes in general, and what Liverpool did really well. The question of their new offside trap is raised, as well as the injury to Alisson Becker, and what it means for the medium-term future of the Reds' aspirations. The Super Cup against Chelsea is also previewed, with hopes high given how the London side capitulated against Manchester United, while a brief look ahead at Southampton is also offered. The future of Dejan Lovren, and if Liverpool should sell, is discussed too. A must-listen as always.
