Dave Davis and David Lynch continue Media Matters by examining the enormous job awaiting Liverpool's new sporting director Julian Ward.

With Ward officially back in the role, attention immediately turns towards the decisions that could define Liverpool's next phase. David explains why Ward's experience, reputation within recruitment and understanding of the club could provide some much-needed stability, while the possibility of January business is already on the agenda.

Virgil van Dijk's future is among the major issues requiring attention, with his contract due to expire and AC Milan reportedly interested. David argues that Liverpool should be looking to extract another couple of elite-level seasons from their captain while the club's younger centre-backs develop.

Recruitment is another major talking point. Lamine Camara is discussed as a midfielder Liverpool have watched and like, while the possibility of getting ahead of the market in January is considered. Full-back is also identified as an area requiring attention, alongside questions over Alexis Mac Allister's longer-term future and whether Liverpool eventually need greater balance across their attack.

The section also continues the Manchester City fallout, including the prospect of Liverpool seeking significant financial compensation and the enormous consequences City could face.

Dave Davis is joined by David Lynch for Media Matters, with Manchester City dominating the discussion following reports of a major verdict in the Premier League financial case.

What could happen next, how much room do City have to challenge the findings, and just how severe could the eventual punishment become? Lynch examines the possibility of expulsion, the wider financial consequences and why the ramifications could stretch far beyond City themselves.

There is also a major Liverpool angle, with discussion around potential compensation claims and what the controversy means for previous title races involving the Reds.

Before that, Dave and David assess Liverpool's international break injury concerns, with Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo both emerging as doubts ahead of the huge meeting with Manchester City.
