On another goal-filled Champions League night, the quarter-finalists were set with Liverpool joining Arsenal in the final eight as England’s representatives.
Newcastle suffered a 7-2 thrashing in Barcelona, while Tottenham Hotspur battled to a first win over Igor Tudor, but it wasn’t enough to get past Atletico Madrid on aggregate.
So, has Arne Slot settled on a successful shape and system at Liverpool? Or was this just a bad Galatasaray side?
Can Igor Tudor’s Spurs replicate this kind of performance when the pressure is back on in the Premier League? Did Eddie Howe’s brave tactics lead to a humiliating scoreline for Newcastle, or is there a wider problem with English teams playing in Europe?
Former players Paul Robinson, Andros Townsend, Stephen Warnock, Andy Reid and Chris Sutton join Mark Chapman, Ian Dennis, Chris Coles and John Murray for all the reaction to the Champions League round of 16, and you’ll hear from Liverpool boss Arne Slot.
