Jim Boardman and Jay Reid return after a hectic few weeks - for them, not Liverpool - to dive straight into a massive stretch of football for the Reds after what felt like the longest international break in history.

It’s been so long since Liverpool’s last game, a win over Bournemouth with an Isak goal, that it’s almost like the season is starting again. International breaks aren’t all negative, despite the worries about who’s going to come back in more than one piece, and sometimes a spell with their national t...

The Under Pressure team dive into Liverpool's passing networks, chance creation and attacking structure to examine a fascinating contradiction. Isak's individual output looks healthy, with four goals and strong xG numbers, yet Liverpool are struggling to involve their No.9 consistently in build-up and aren't creating enough high-quality chances as a team.

Hamzah takes a deeper look at the decline in Liverpool's open-play attacking numbers and explains how changes in pressing, opposition tactics an...

Dan Rhodes, Dan Kennett, Phil Barts and Hamzah examine the sporting advantage created by City's spending, whether previous Premier League title races have been fundamentally compromised and why retrospective punishment remains such a complicated issue.

Could City face relegation or even expulsion? Should titles be stripped? And would handing trophies retrospectively to Liverpool ever compensate supporters and players for the moments they lost?

It's a wide-ranging debate about...
