We hear quite a lot from Alex Ferguson today, from his negotiations with Andrei Kanchelskis’ agent to his opinions about the recently-retired Wayne Rooney.
Rory Smith joins us to discuss yesterday’s game at Anfield. Why are Liverpool bad now? Is their recruitment department quite the world-beating operation it’s cracked up to be? And is Bruno Fernandes the new Luis Suarez?
