This is the deep tactical section of the podcast. Gags and Grizz break down why Liverpool's structure is failing, asking whether Slot must now rip up the current shape and rebuild his approach once key players return. They highlight the lack of a viable third centre back, the imbalance caused by having wing backs rather than classic full backs, and how City completely shut Liverpool down by forcing Konaté to play. There is clear frustration at the lack of in-game changes, the decision not to use Isak, and the sense that Slot currently has no convincing plan B. It is a detailed, analytical look at what Liverpool must change and why the manager needs to show adaptability fast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Chat G&G opens with the chaos and excitement of Ireland's dramatic win, Troy Parrott's hat-trick and the shock of Hungary being dumped out. From there, Gags and Grizz swing straight back into Liverpool's world and the contrast could not be sharper. They talk through eighth place, the slump in form, United fans chirping in the barbers, and that now-famous line that Liverpool's floor is still higher than United's ceiling. The pair retrace when the decline truly began, highlight how few matches have been won since Palace away, and outline the next set of fixtures that must be turned into points. It is a lively, emotional cut that captures the mood of Liverpool supporters right now. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The final cut covers Galatasaray's Wilfried Singo, a powerful and versatile defender who has caught Liverpool's eye. Dave and Bart's break down his ability to play both right back and right sided centre back, his elite defensive numbers, his intelligent positioning, and his blend of raw power and recovery pace.

The pair look at the current links, discuss why Liverpool liked him in the summer, and debate whether revisiting him now hints at a recruitment mistake. They close by questioning whether Liverpool's real issues lie further back on the pitch and if Semenyo would even address the current problems. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dave and Bart's break down his defensive IQ in zone fourteen, his ability to block danger, his telescopic tackling style and his strengths receiving under pressure. They look at why his numbers resemble a young Fabinho, how his physical development is trending upwards, and why his contract situation could make him a bargain in January.
