With the causes for concern piling up for Liverpool, Neil Fitzmaurice is here with the latest Poetry in Motion podcast. From Roberto Firmino's drop in form to FSG's unwillingness to support Jurgen Klopp in the transfer market until deadline day, to why the goals have dried up, all bases are covered. The ECHO's Liverpool correspondent Paul Gorst and Sean Bradbury join Fitzy to get into the big LFC talking points, but begin by discussing the sad passing of goalkeeper Alisson Becker's father in Brazil, before moving onto the on-field issues, following defeat to Everton last time out.

Dan Morgan is joined by Liverpool.com colleague Joel Rabinowitz and Blood Red’s Matt Addison to present their roadmap for Liverpool to get out of their current crisis – and back to some kind of normality. Asking whether Jurgen Klopp needs to revert to set-ups he enjoyed success with in previous seasons, examining the role of Thiago Alcantara, and wondering whether Sadio Mane’s form is as concerning as Roberto Firmino’s... it’s a very interesting listen for all Reds fans.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

We need to talk about Roberto Firmino. The forward is not the only player who has been performing below-par of late for Liverpool, and is certainly not a scapegoat for their current predicament. But with his goals decreasing year on year and his overall play having regressed, what is the solution to the problem? Matt Addison and Kai Delaney take a look at Firmino's past, present and future, discussing the underlying numbers, the amount of games he has had to play this season, and how the return of Diogo Jota will help increase the Brazilian's capacity. Firmino is often described as being the entire 'system' for Liverpool, so getting him back to something like his best is vital. Long-term a new signing might be the answer, but short-term, that is not possible - and the Reds need Firmino firing if they are to make it back into the Champions League.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In the latest edition of the Analysing Anfield podcast Josh Williams and David Hughes look at what Jurgen Klopp can do to change Liverpool’s form – if he should be changing anything at all. The Reds’ struggles continued on Saturday as they lost the Merseyside derby to Everton 2-0. And after picking apart that painful defeat, Josh and David dig deep into the underlying numbers to ask if Klopp is doing the right thing by continuing to play the same system and the same players, although of course the Liverpool manager is not helped by injuries, particularly at the back. Formation and personnel changes are discussed before the must-listen podcast ends with a preview of the must-win match at Sheffield United.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

After Liverpool lost their Anfield record against Everton on Saturday, the Blood Red podcast is back to assess where Jurgen Klopp turns next.

So how can Liverpool turn things around, continue their progression in the Champions League, and make sure they finish inside the top four? Guy Clarke is joined by Ian Doyle, Theo Squires and Marcus Banks as they talk through the issues Liverpool are facing and which players might be able to offer some hope for the final three months of the season.

Ahead of tonight’s big Merseyside derby at Anfield, Matt Addison speaks to the Liverpool ECHO’s Everton FC reporter Adam Jones to get the view from Goodison Park on the latest Behind Enemy Lines podcast. Who are the players that Liverpool need to be wary of? And how much hope of a top-four finish is there for Carlo Ancelotti’s side? All of that, plus James Rodriguez, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Jordan Pickford, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and much more are discussed, before Adam picks his combined Liverpool and Everton team based only on the players currently available to play. A win for the Blues would draw them level on points with the Reds in the standings having played a game fewer. But Everton, remember, have not managed that at Anfield since 1999.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

With Liverpool just three points ahead of Everton going into Saturday’s Anfield showdown, is this the biggest Merseyside derby in recent memory? And given Liverpool’s injuries and poor home record, will Everton ever have a better chance of winning at their biggest rivals for the first time since 1999? Those questions are asked by Paul Gorst, Dan Kay, David Lynch and host Matt Addison in the Blood Red podcast. But before getting stuck into the big match, the panel look back on the Champions League last-16 victory over RB Leipzig and reflect on the brilliance of Mohamed Salah. But talk soon turns to Everton, and where the game might be won and lost, on and off the field, before the usual team and score predictions.

Ralf Rangnick's influence on Jurgen Klopp; Joel Matip, Sadio Mane, Takumi Minamino and Naby Keita, and the future of Fenway Sports Group - the links between Red Bull and Liverpool FC are plentiful. So, ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash between RB Leipzig and Liverpool, Matt Addison speaks to Karan Tejwani, the author of the excellent book Wings of Change, and the Liverpool ECHO's business of football writer Dave Powell, to get the lowdown on how Red Bull's football branch operates, what Liverpool can learn from them, and how the links between the two are only set to get even stronger.In the future, players like Ibrahima Konate could transfer to Liverpool from RB Leipzig, while current Borussia Monchengladbach boss Marco Rose could be a contender for the Anfield manager's job once Klopp departs. And at the same time, FSG are likely to move towards a similar model in some respects, in order to get around Brexit regulations involving the transfer of young talents, and further strengthen their hand after recent interest in investment from Billy Beane, Gerry Cardinale and the RedBall Acquisitions group. In short: Liverpool's clash with RB Leipzig is just the latest link to be formed between the Reds and the soft drinks corporation. And plenty more are set to follow in the short, medium and long term.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Join Paul Wheelock for the Post-Game podcast as we react to Liverpool's 3-1 defeat at Leicester City. It was a very hard defeat to take, seeing as Liverpool led, and deservedly led, until the 78th minute, through Mohamed Salah's superbly-crafted strike. But once James Maddison’s free-kick equaliser was controversially allowed to stand by VAR, things went very wrong indeed. And there is no question now that the worries are mounting up for Jurgen Klopp and his defending Premier League champions. Many of those problems are discussed over the course of his podcast, which features the views of Liverpool fans Mark Baker, Owen Thomas, Ross Strachan, Steve Dawson and Lauren Black.

Welcome to the Post-Game podcast to react to Liverpool 0 Brighton & Hove Albion 1. After 68 games unbeaten at Anfield in the Premier League, the defending champions have now lost two on the bounce at home, with this latest defeat maybe even more disappointing than the loss to Burnley that ended that long run, given it came on the back of excellent away victories over West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur that hauled Jurgen Klopp’s side back into the title race. But now Sunday’s visit of leaders Manchester City is looking make or break for Liverpool. We’ll have plenty of build-up to that match on the Blood Red channel over the next few days.

Liverpool are one of several clubs around Europe to be linked with a move for Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Yves Bissouma. So, Matt Addison speaks to those who have watched the 24-year-old midfielder and know his game extensively to get the lowdown on the possible Reds summer transfer target. Firstly, Brighton podcaster Charlie Haffenden explains why he feels Bissouma could become a world-class player under Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp - and outlines why a bid of £40m+ might be required to tempt the Seagulls into a sale. Analysing Anfield hosts Josh Williams and David Hughes then offer insight into the statistical and tactical factors behind the links to the Anfield giants.

Liverpool got very much back on track on Thursday night with that impressive victory at Tottenham Hotspur. But they make the return trip to London today for what could be an even tougher test of their title credentials – and their ridiculously injury-hit defence. And that’s because West Ham United go into this afternoon's game on the back of six straight wins in all competitions. Four of those have come in the Premier League, which means they sit just two points behind Liverpool in fifth. So to get the inside track on the remarkable revival David Moyes is inspiring at the London Stadium, Paul Wheelock speaks to Tom Clark, who is the new West Ham reporter for the Football.London website. They also talk about Declan Rice, Tomas Soucek, whose late runs into the box remind Tom of a certain Steven Gerrard, and about Issa Diop, who is one of the centre-backs being linked to Liverpool before the transfer window closes.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The injuries to Fabinho and Joel Matip may ultimately change things but for a long time in this transfer window it has appeared that Liverpool will not sign a centre-back in January. So where do they really stand in terms of football finances in a week that has seen them climb into the top five in the Deloitte Money League, moving above Manchester City? Matt Addison is joined first by football finance expert Kieran Maguire and then by the Liverpool ECHO's football and business writer Dave Powell to discuss the latest economic situation at the Reds. On the agenda are Nike, Kylian Mbappe, transfers, Anfield, revenue and more as the guests provide insight into the situation - and whether the current scrutiny of FSG is justified. The show concludes with a chat about Billy Beane and RedBall Acquisitions, with a deal to sell part of FSG to the company having now collapsed, and also the Boston Red Sox and how John W Henry and Co have coped with the pandemic at their other major sports enterprise, with reference to how that could be applied at Liverpool.*Please note this podcast was recorded before Joel Matip sustained ankle-ligament damage in the 3-1 win at Tottenham Hotspur.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

After a turbulent few weeks for Liverpool comes a massive Premier League test in the form of Jose Mourinho's Tottenham Hotspur. Spurs are now just a point behind the Reds - and with a game in hand - making this evening's clash in North London all the more crucial. Joining host Neil Fitzmaurice for the latest Poetry in Motion podcast are Sean Bradbury and Matt Addison as they preview the game and take a wider look at the problems that Liverpool are facing, and whether FSG's transfer reluctance is the right strategy to take. With everything that could be going against the Reds doing exactly that at the moment, where does the solution lie for Jurgen Klopp? That is the £100m question - the minimum amount Liverpool stand to lose if they miss out on Champions League football.
