Summary

Citytalk this week takes a long look at our tie against Manchester City, the way it will play out and the knock on effects for our season. What does everyone think of the draw? How about being at home first leg? We speak to Tony Evans about his new book Two Tribes about the 1985/86 League Season. To buy that click here. We then look ahead to Liverpool vs Watford. Watford are a big size but have a strange record from set pieces. This is a game Liverpool should win. How will they do that? Neil Atkinson hosts, Paul Senior, Rick McEvoy and Adam Smith are in the chair. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
