Dave Davis is joined by Lewis Steele for a packed edition of Media Matters, with the fallout from Manchester City's financial case dominating the agenda.
Lewis reacts to the extraordinary developments surrounding City and considers what could happen next as the dispute moves towards appeals and potentially years of further legal action. With Liverpool among four clubs said in the transcript to have previously reserved their right to seek compensation, Dave and Lewis discuss how difficult it could be to calculate the financial and sporting consequences of City's breaches.
Could Liverpool argue that City's actions cost them Premier League titles and other trophies? What happens to the legacy of Jürgen Klopp's great Liverpool side? And how can the authorities possibly determine the impact across clubs that missed out on trophies, European qualification and prize money?
There's also important Liverpool news from the international break. Jeremy Jacquet earns praise following an impressive France debut, while injuries to Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo create major concerns ahead of the upcoming Manchester City clash. Lewis assesses their chances of returning and provides an update on Giovanni Leoni's recovery.
