Talking Tactics

Talking Tactics are joined by Drifty, from the Football Banter Show, to discuss Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool. Are Liverpool blowing the Premier League, if so, how? Should you target injured players? Manchester City beat Chelsea 0-0 (4-3 pens) in the League Cup final, but Kepa’s refusal to be substituted stole the show—showing a clear lack of respect for Sarri, and proving player power at Chelsea is alive and well. You also asked us some questions, we answered them.
