    Salah, Trent & Van Dijk: How will Slot's Liverpool look next season?

    Derby defeat dashes title hopes - but is Slot waiting in the wings?

    We're back with a bonus Walk On offering, as Liverpool ramp up their search to name a successor to Jurgen Klopp, with the Reds in negotiations to bring Feyenoord's Arne Slot to Anfield.
    Before looking at what the Dutchman could bring to Liverpool, should a compensation package be agreed, Tony Evans, James Pearce and Simon Hughes pick the bones out of the Reds' first Goodison Park derby defeat since 2010, which all-but ends Liverpool's title hopes.
    We hear from AD's Sjoerd Mossou out in the Netherlands on what Liverpool can expect from Slot before Andy Jones also pops by to talk about his style of play and how it may fit with the current squad at Anfield.
