In the latest Blood Red column, Ian Doyle looks at the trip to Brentford and why Liverpool won't want a repeat of history

Ian Doyle argues that Liverpool face ongoing questions regarding their physical resilience and ability to handle adversity under head coach Andoni Iraola. Following a 3-0 home defeat to Manchester City, the Reds travel to face an unbeaten Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium, where the squad's battling qualities will be tested amid lingering doubts.
Doyle notes that while Florian Wirtz recently impressed in a 6-3 European win over LASK, Liverpool's marquee attackers have yet to display the tenacity of former fan favorites. With potential injury absences including Conor Bradley and Hugo Ekitike, Doyle asserts Liverpool must match Brentford's physical challenge to overturn their recent struggles.
