On the latest Molby On The Spot Trev Downey and Liverpool legend Jan Molby discuss the Newcastle game, the latest twist in the Isak saga, the Champions League draw and the huge match coming up against Arsenal.
After another mad Monday night at St James's Park, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back to dissect that dramatic 3-2 win for the Reds over Newcastle United. The duo dive straight into the chaos that unfolded in the North East, where the Geordies tried their best to create a hostile atmosphere with their "get into them" banners and owner-led social media wind-ups. Did it all backfire spectacularly when young Rio Ngumoha broke their hearts with the winner in his Premier League debut?
They don’t hold back on Newcastle's behaviour throughout the summer during this whole Isak saga, culminating in what we saw on Monday. From booing Ekitike every time he touched the ball to their owners and management letting fans think they’re the hard-done-by party in all this, the attempts at faking some long-standing bitter rivalry to get everyone up for the challenge was laughable by the end. Jay and Jim explore how being a one-club city might be doing Newcastle no favours, suggesting they're living in a bit of an echo chamber without the reality checks - with heaps of sarcasm usually thrown in - that come from having proper local rivals. Meanwhile, they dissect Simon Hooper's referee performance (did chest-cam put him off?) and that inevitable Anthony Gordon red card that had been brewing all night.
Looking ahead, there's the small matter of Arsenal coming to Anfield this weekend, with another ref who’s made a name for himself, Chris Kavanagh, in the middle - and the lads have plenty to say about that particular appointment. They also touch on the neighbours' new stadium down by the river (drink every time you hear ‘down by the river’) and some of the teething problems Everton are having with their fancy new gaff.
As always with Scouser Tommies, it’s passionate, funny, and unapologetically red. The perfect listen for any Liverpool fan still buzzing from that last-minute winner and already looking ahead to the next battle.
