The TLW Time Team duo of Dan Thomas and John Gallagher are back with the first of a three part special looking back on the late, great Gerard Houllier and his time as Liverpool manager.

The Reds wasted no time in replacing outgoing Head Coach, Arne Slot, as former Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola was appointed on a two year deal re-united him with Sporting Director Richard Hughes.

Chris Smith is joined by Paul Natton and TLW Editor Dave Usher to discuss the appointment and how the mood of the fanbase has been lifted by the promise of a return to the high energy, pressing football Anfield demands.

Arne Slot Sacked!

After a week of speculation and uncertainty, Arne Slot's future was finally decided as FSG stepped in and put an end to his two year stint as Liverpool's head coach.

Liverpool 1 Brentford 1 - Match Reaction

The Reds ended the season with another disappointing result at Anfield but this wasn't a day for worrying about that as it was all about saying goodbye to departing club legends Mo Salah and Andy Robertson.

Chris Smith is joined by TLW Editor Dave Usher and Chris Bascombe from the Daily Telegraph to reflect on an emotional afternoon at Anfield and to ponder on what happens next and who else may or may not be departing with Mo and Robbo.

Dan Thomas and John Gallagher are back with another Time Team pod, this time looking back at the 2006 FA Cup Final, which took place 20 years ago this month.

The lads look back at the season as a whole, the main characters, the storylines and the road to Cardiff that led to one of the most iconic individual performances in club history.

Aston Villa 4 Liverpool 2 - Match Reaction

Defeat number 19 of the season was as predictable as many of the others as Villa ran all over the Reds in the second half and leapfrogged them into fourth spot in the table, securing Champions League football in the process.

Seven defeats and a draw against the other sides in the top nine away from home. Still, Arne says he knows how to fix it so nothing to see here, move along. Move along.

Julian Richards steps up to the plate again to join TLW Editor Dave Usher in discussing another miserable away day.

Liverpool 1 Chelsea 1 - Match Reaction

Ryan Gravenberch opened the scoring early but it was all downhill from there as Chelsea came back to equalise and put a halt to their six game losing streak in front of a very disgruntled Anfield crowd who made their feelings clear with boos at half time, full time and when Arne Slot subbed Rio Ngumoha.

TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by John Gallagher and Paul Natton to look back on another unsatisfactory afternoon for the Reds.

Manchester United 3 Liverpool 2 - Match Reaction

Defeat number 18 on the season as the Reds came back from two goals down to concede again and slip to a 3-2 defeat at Old Trafford. The first half was dreadful, the second half was better but ultimately Arne Slot's side came up short yet again.

TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Julian Richards to pick through the bones of another disappointing loss in a season full of them.

Liverpool 3 Crystal Palace 1 - Match Reaction

The Reds have all but secured Champions League football for next season after a tense 3-1 win over bogey club Palace at Anfield in which Freddie Woodman emerged as the unlikely hero.

Paul Natton joins TLW Editor Dave Usher to reflect on the three points, the emergence of a new cult hero, a goal for Robbo as well as both big money summer signings getting on the scoresheet together for the first time.

Everton 1 Liverpool 2 - Match Reaction

It's happened again! Another stoppage time winner to break Evertonian hearts, with this one coming from the skipper in the 11th added on minute. The Reds have a firm grip on a Champions League spot while Everton have seen a three point gap increase to an eight point in in just seven days.

Chris Smith is joined by John Gallagher and TLW Editor Dave Usher for this one.
