On tonight’s AI Pro Plus RAW, Trev Downey and Dave Hendrick pull no punches in their analysis of the massively disappointing defeat to West Brom which sees The Reds crash out of the FA Cup in the 4th round for the third year running. On a night when very little went right for Liverpool, Trev and Dave are very critical of the man with whom the buck stops - Jürgen Klopp. If there were some positives to be gleaned from the loss to Swansea, then this capitulation was without any redeeming qualities. The defensive shake-up, the wretched defending and midfield cover and the paucity of the usual attacking impetus all get looked at by two very upset Irishmen.
This week Harinder Singh makes his debut on AI:PRO as he joins Eddie Gibbs to look ahead to the FA Cup 4th Round tie at Anfield. How much will Klopp rotate? Who's injured? Karius or Mignolet in goal? Will Sturridge feature? Get all of this and more on the latest Pro + Preview podcast.

On the latest Molby On The Spot, Trev Downey speaks to The Great Dane about the demoralising defeat at Swansea which brought an 18 match unbeaten run to a juddering halt. Jan is as insightful as ever on the reasons why The Reds failed to turn over the bottom-of-the-table side a week after putting the champions-elect to the sword. The lads discuss the paucity of options available to Jürgen Klopp from the bench and this, naturally, leads to some talk about the imminent closing of the January transfer window. Jan suggests a player he’d love to see wearing the Liverbird and the pod closes with a quick look forward to the FA Cup game against West Brom.
