Summary

Another weekend ruined as Liverpool contrive once again to throw away a win with a painfully lacklustre and all to familiar display at St James Park. Having never recorded a win against a Rafa Benitez team, the Reds put themselves in pole position to take all three points thanks to a Phil Coutinho howitzer only to surprise absolutely no one by gifting Newcastle the softest of equalisers. Joining Neil Atkinson to pull on all the threads are Gareth Roberts, Mike Nevin and Melissa Reddy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:43.4

Mike's acting as though it isn't.

0:44.6
