Episode Details

Dave Davis is joined by respected Liverpool journalist David Lynch for another edition of Media Matters, as the pair discuss Liverpool's reported interest in Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott and the possibility of a January transfer.

With Bournemouth reportedly prepared to consider offers exceeding £100million and Chelsea also interested, Lynch gives his assessment of whether Liverpool should pursue the highly rated England midfielder.

While acknowledging Scott's impressive work rate, defensive qualities and suitability for Andoni Iraola's system, Lynch questions whether the enormous valuation represents sensible business.

Could Liverpool's existing relationship with Scott through Iraola give them an advantage? Or is Liverpool's name being used to encourage Chelsea to make their move?

The discussion also turns to Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, who Lynch believes could offer comparable quality at a significantly lower price.

With Liverpool's midfield performances improving and other positions requiring investment, Dave and David debate whether spending £100million on Alex Scott would be a smart decision or an unnecessary gamble.
