Liverpool’s summer spending has smashed through records - but is it smart squad building or an expensive gamble?

Gordon Smart, Ian Ladyman and Mark Clattenburg are joined by Daily Mail Sport’s Merseyside reporter Lewis Steele to unpack the Reds’ £500m window, the brewing Alexander Isak transfer saga, and whether defence should trump attack in the market.

We also tackle the pressure on Arne Slot’s Liverpool 2.0, Newcastle’s frustration, and the emotional tributes planned at Anfield for Diogo Jota and Andre Silva.

Away from Anfield, the panel dive deep into Jack Grealish’s career crossroads - from treble glory at Manchester City to questions over professionalism, wild off-field stories, and why Everton could be his perfect reset.
