Arne Slot is closing in on his first Premier League title in his debut season with Liverpool and his team have hardly put a foot wrong.

And will history unfairly judge Klopp's tenure at Liverpool after taking nine years to win as many Premier League titles as Slot will do in one?

It’s not just about the Manchester City fourth successive title, it’s about the Phil Fodens that were made along the way.

As Liverpool found out, all the romantic farewell narrative in the world can’t stop a freshly tracksuit-bottomed Sean Dyche delivering a hammer blow to your title chances. And what a performance from that new lad, Daniel Calvert-Lewin! Marcus and Luke give their takes on a dismal night for Liverpool which needed a calm slot into the bottom corner, but instead got Darwin Núñez desperately smashing the ball into Jordan Pickford’s meaty thighs. Elsewhere, Erik ten Hag serves up smiley faces covered in chocolate sauce (again), there's an unwelcome reminder of Paul Jewell’s jewel, and we have live reports from Pete Donaldson on Jason Tindall Watch at Selhurst Park.

What’s that noise? Is that the sound of Euro-trash floating from Lineker’s Bar? That’s right, Pete thinks it’s official: Jack Grealish is already planing his post-title win sesh. Marcus, Jim and Pete react to a huge weekend at the top of the Premier League as both Liverpool and Arsenal promptly put their special carton of Premier League celebration milk back into the freezer (more on that at the end of the show). Plus, has Thierry Henry started shrinking yet? Has someone in the Brentford area named their baby after Marcus Speller? And what happens when you bring a bottle of water to a whip fight?

Pete and Luke reflect on a laboured victory for Manchester United that kept them in the hat and another night of Antony being the most predictable winger in the world. Luke also celebrates the return of Normal Bloke Wayne Rooney to our screens and Mark Clattenburg’s roll-neck gets a VAR replay of its own.

Luke and Pete are here and they are discussing the approved materials for goalposts following Darwin Nunez’s record-breaking performance last night. Cheesy Wotsits anyone? On top of that, they fear for Chelsea since they look like a team who recently met in the car park and speculate over whether the upcoming documentary has anything to do with Jürgen Klopp quitting Liverpool.

The Maidstone United fairytale continues! Marcus, Luke and Jim shake off their Belfast hangover to look back on the FA Cup fourth round, where The Stones marched on (or rolled in one fan’s case), Erik Ten Hag struggled to give away a bottle of wine, and David Wagner obligingly rolled over for a belly rub to kick off Jürgen Klopp’s farewell tour. We also address the difficult scenes at the Hawthorns, which led to a long delay in the Black Country derby.
