Are Liverpool serious Premier League title contenders?

Liverpool passed their first serious test of the season and Chelsea looked good even in defeat. Tom Clarke is joined by Gregor Robertson, Tony Cascarino and Tom Allnutt as they ask; can Liverpool win the title and are Chelsea a top four team? Are Arsenal’s chances of the title being undermined by their poor disciplinary record? Do referees favour the top teams? And it wasn’t just a bad day for Julen Lopetegui at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, it was a forgettable day for James Maddison too. Plus, Brighton, Man Utd, Southampton and VAR. The Game football podcast is here twice a week as the new season starts. It’s the thinking fan’s podcast for the debate, the tactics, the personalities, injuries, goals and substitutions - whatever it takes to enjoy every nuance of The Game, even if the team has to go to extra time, or penalties to reach an agreement! Presented by Tom Clarke with contributors including Martin Samuel, Jonathan Northcroft, Charlotte Duncker, Hamzah
