Summary

After a busy transfer window, Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano joins Matt Addison to speak about the Champions League - and Liverpool's chances of winning the tournament. On the agenda are all of the big rivals the Reds will have to beat around Europe in order to claim their seventh European Cup, including Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Juventus, and PSG. Which of those teams have strengthened the most since last season? Does the Thiago Alcantara transfer switch the odds in favour of Liverpool in 2020/21? And which players should football fans watch out for? As well as talking all things Champions League, Fabrizio and Matt also discuss potential future transfer moves for the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland, who could both be on the move next summer, and who both have been linked with Liverpool at times in the past.
