How does Barcola fix Liverpool's attack?
About this episode
The episode discusses Liverpool's acquisition of Barcola and its potential impact on the team's attacking strategy and player dynamics.
Simon Hughes and James Pearce join Tony Evans to discuss Liverpool’s huge move for Barcola and whether the France international could be the attacking signing that transforms their season. How big a boost is Barcola? Does his arrival change Liverpool’s plans for Yankuba Minteh and Ismaïla Sarr? And with Cody Gakpo attracting interest, has his status suddenly changed from one of Liverpool’s most expendable attackers to an essential member of the squad? The panel also discuss Andoni Iraola’s impact around the AXA, how his approach differs from Arne Slot’s, and look ahead to Saturday’s visit of Nottingham Forest.
