In the concluding part of this double episode of The Interview, Trev Downey talks to Ronnie Whelan about the rebuilding of Liverpool in the late 80s under Kenny Dalglish. Ronnie talks about the great side of that era, the similarities between them and the current Liverpool set-up under Jürgen Klopp and has some fantastic stories about the trophies won, and lost, in that era, culminating in the last league title to come to Anfield, in 1990. The conversation continues with a look at how injury impaired his remaining years at the club and the painful and somewhat shabby way in which his days at LFC ended. There’s also a very entertaining discussion about Ronnie’s time in the most successful Ireland sides in history.
On this week’s Media Matters, Gags Tandon & Nina Kauser speak with Ali Khaled, editor of Four Four Two Arabia and a Liverpool supporter too. Ali gives his expert take on the impact Mo Salah has made at Liverpool from the Arabian point of view.

Ali then talks about other talents that could follow in Salah's footsteps as well as whether or not the Premier League's top-scorer should be in line for the major awards this season.
