Liverpool move to the top of the Premier League after a hard-fought win over Crystal PalaceOnly four players in Liverpool’s history – Ian Rush, Roger Hunt, Gordon Hodgson and Billy Liddell – had reached a double century of goals for the club prior to Mo Salah.But The Red Kop think some questions still need to be asked: What more can Harvey Elliott do? And does Darwin Núñez know the offside rule?Plus we look ahead to the Europa League and Manchester United.

What a roller coaster as Liverpool keep pushing at the top of the Premier League table with a dramatic victory over Fulham. The Red Kop discuss "magnificent" Trent Alexander-Arnold doing what he does best in the closing moments.And it’s a double game week coming up, can the Reds beat the new manager bounce on a cold night in Sheffield?Maybe a new hairstyle for Darwin Núñez will make the difference.

After the international break, the Reds fought back after Erling Haaland’s effort to take a point back home from Manchester City.Even Gary Neville has been talking about Trent Alexander Arnold, the Red Kop ask are people finally catching on with just how good he is?Is it too early to talk about a title race? Not for us it isn't.And the team discuss Caoimhín Kelleher's ... cahoonas.

With the international break continuing, attention turns to the Reds trip to Manchester City and the feeling it can be won. The Red Kop are feeling confident - despite the dreaded early kick off - after a fair few goals for the players on international duty.Liverpool sit just one point behind Pep Guardiola’s side ahead of their trip to the Etihad.

Stand out performances from Virgil van Dijk – calm and cool ... and Darwin Nunez – impressive and impulsive.Liverpool have now won all nine of their fixtures in L4 this season across all competitions and climb to second in the table.But we hit pause as the Red Kop take a look ahead to the international break.

BBC Radio Merseyside Total Sport's Paul Salt and Chris Coughlin discuss Luis Diaz saving the day, the winger’s bravery following recent off-field issues, and how parts of the game felt like a repeat of the worst of last season.Could you see anything good in the Reds trip to The Kenny? The Red Kop argue that collectively the team were poor, Darwin Nunez’s finishing and how to solve the issue of Alexis Mac Allister filling in the number six role.And we reflect on how the tragedy chanting experienced at Luton Town has absolutely no place in the game.

Paul Salt and Chris Coughlin discuss Liverpool’s 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest with the Reds’ remaining just three points off the top of the Premier League table.They chat about Alexis Mac Allister’s “best game in a Red shirt”, Darwin Nunez’s form and Virgil van Dijk’s resurgence.They also preview the Reds’ EFL Cup Fourth Round tie at Bournemouth on Wednesday

Much to discuss after the Merseyside derby and it's 'Bonjour' to Toulouse.

A women’s derby, injuries, and yet another 1230 kick off.
