On the latest RAW, Trev Downey, Dave Hendrick and Karl Matchett give their post match thoughts on Liverpool 3 Nottingham Forest 0. As ever, the performances are assessed and the key moments analysed in what was a comfortable victory for Jürgen Klopp's men. Some of the discussion points include - the incremental improvement of Kostas Tsimikas as he finds a rhythm,; the twin threats and transformative talents of Dominik Szoboszlai and Darwin Nunez; the self-advertised tactical influence of Pepijn Lijnders and the low-key way in which the Reds are keeping pace comfortably with the league leaders.

On the latest RAW, Trev Downey, Dave Hendrick and Guy Drinkel look back on Liverpool's convincing 5-1 win over Toulouse in the Europa League. As ever, the performances are assessed and the key moments analysed with some of the main discussion points being: the ongoing emergence of Ryan Gravenberch as a midfield powerhouse; the unconditional love of the Anfield crowd for Darwin Nunez; the joy of watching three new kids get a run; the Kelleher conundrum; Mo Salah stat-padding his way into the record books and the joy of revelling in a fun football match.

On the latest RAW Trev Downey, Hari Sethi and Dave Hendrick spend a record 103 minutes talking about Brighton 2 Liverpool 2. Yet again, we have more PGMOL incompetence influencing a Liverpool game as Anthony Taylor fails to red card Solly March. Klopp's midfield selection leaves the lads in total confusion. Mac as the 6? Dom on the left? Harvey on the right against a team that loves to attack that flank? Why was Endo withdrawn at half time against Union? Had Gravenberch not earned a start ahead of Elliot? The continued insistence on the Trent experiment seems to have far more downside than up. Brighton were a far more cohesive unit than Liverpool in the first half but Mo Salah proves his class yet again to see the Reds go in ahead. Liverpool had very little by way of response to conceding the equaliser to leave Klopp's men with just one point from six.
On the latest RAW, Trev Downey, Dave Hendrick and Hari Sethi react to Liverpool's routine win over Union Saint Gilloise in the Europa League group stage. As ever, performances are assessed and key moments discussed with some specific discussion on: the renaissance of Joe Gomez, the promise of Ryan Gravenberch, the classy calm of Jarrell Quansah, the odd choice of not starting Curtis Jones and the happy knack Diogo Jota has for playing badly and scoring regardless.

Tottenham 2-1 Liverpool - Robbery

On the latest RAW, Trev Downey, Karl Matchett and Dave Hendrick reflect on the daylight robbery that occurred at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Liverpool went down 2-1 to Spurs in a manner that can be kindly described as highly dubious. As ever, the lads discuss the key moments and analyse the performances but yet again the chat is dominated by the ineptitude of the PGMOL fraternity. In today's case, Simon Hooper and Darren England were the men unfit for purpose on an afternoon which required a statement from their organisation that admitted to a "clear and factual error" as "VAR failed." Klopp's men put in a remarkable showing against the odds and were worthy of a point at the very least but, thanks in large part to the aforementioned jokers, it wasn't to be. Well worth a listen with the usual passion and humour during the analysis.
On this League Cup edition of Post Match Raw Guy is in his usual hosting chair and is joined by cup run hero Steven, and RAW regular Dave Hendrick to discuss the win over Leicester in the League Cup. The trio go through the game in usual detail as the reds took a little while to get going with the Championship side taking the lead early on, but Klopp's men rallied and of course won 3-1 which they are now contractually obliged to do.
