Summary
Today we’re picking the bones out of Liverpool’s 3-0 rout of Manchester United.
Arne Slot has begun life at Anfield with three wins from three, as for Erik ten Hag’s side they’ve already lost twice this season.
So have Liverpool improved or are Manchester United just not the test they once were?
Ayo Akinwolere is joined by The Athletic's Manchester United writer Carl Anka and Liverpool writer James Pearce, who were at Old Trafford, to analyse the difference between the two sides and examine the start to life under Slot for Liverpool.
Plus David Ornstein drops by to discuss the latest around Mohamed Salah's contract situation following his comments after the game, as well as reviewing Liverpool's transfer dealings this summer under new sporting director Richard Hughes
