On the latest episode of Liquid Football, Kelly Cates is joined by former West Ham players Matthew Upson and Carlton Cole, and ex-Chelsea left-back Wayne Bridge.

The first topic for discussion is the weekend’s big game between Liverpool and Manchester City. The panel discuss where Pep Guardiola got it wrong for the champions, and his selection decisions at full-back.

They also talk about the famous atmosphere at Anfield, and how much of an impact that a stadium’s atmosphere can have on your performance as both an away and a home team.

And the conversation turns to passion and what happens when tensions boil over between teammates – yes, Dyer and Bowyer come into it.
