On a historic weekend of football in the English Premier League – one that saw a record number of Saturday goals, Manchester United’s first loss of the season, and a memorable capitulation from Arsenal – the story was Kenny Dalglish; or, the story was Carlo Ancelotti, depending on how you want to look at Sunday’s match at Stamford Bridge, a 1-0 win by Liverpool in Fernando Torres’s Blues debut. Rarely has their been a case where the difference between the managers mattered so much, but as Ancelotti failed to respond to Dalglish’s three central defender set-up, Liverpool was registering what may be a season defining victory.

On this edition of the EPL Talk Podcast, myself, Laurence McKenna and Kartik Krishnaiyer talk about that, other stumbles by the league’s title aspirants, and West Brom parting with Roberto di Matteo. We also get to you feedback, addressing the questions posed on the site before the show.
