Join Ian Doyle and Mark Jones on the Blood Red YouTube channel as they react to a clinical night at Anfield.
Liverpool cruised to a 6-0 victory over Qarabag in the Champions League, a result that ensured the Reds progressed in third place in the league phase standings. With the knockout rounds looming, our panel discusses who stood out, the importance of the clean sheet, and what the third-place finish means for Liverpool's potential path through the play-offs.
More importantly, the win provides a massive boost for Arne Slot. After a period of scrutiny, this dominant performance eases the pressure on the boss just in time for a huge Premier League test. We look ahead to Saturday night’s 8:00 PM kick-off against Newcastle United and ask: is this the turning point Slot needed?

The lads also look back on Liverpool’s commanding 3-0 Champions League win away at Marseille — the control, the key moments, and the tactical tweaks that made the difference — before turning attention to the weekend, with a full Bournemouth vs Liverpool preview ahead of Saturday’s 5:30pm kick-off.
Expect analysis on selection decisions, potential rotations after Europe, where the game could be won, and the threats Bournemouth pose.
Get involved in the comments: Should Liverpool consider selling Robertson this month? Who stood out in Marseille? And what’s your XI for Bournemouth?
