Liverpool returned after what felt like the smallest break ever to thump Tranmere Rovers at Prenton Park in their first warm-up match of the season.

Joining John Gibbons in the studio this week are Lizzi Doyle, Ian Salmon, Andy Heaton and Neil Jones.

Also on the show, Andy Heaton chats to Tranmere chairman Mark Palios about their plans for the season and John Gibbons has Yaw Owusu in the studio to fill us in on the upcoming Liverpool International Music Festival.
