Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

Liverpool's performance against Leicester City in the Premier League was almost perfect - and the numbers show it. Join Josh Williams and David Hughes as they talk through and analyse that game, plus look ahead to the Champions League clash with Atalanta - a team that Liverpool tore apart just three weeks ago. Liverpool smashed five past the Italian outfit last time out, and their attack so far this season is proving to be the difference in getting them over the line in matches. As the numbers show, the addition of Diogo Jota, plus existing forwards like Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, are helping the Reds generate the most chances in the Premier League, and statistically of the highest quality. As Liverpool push forward to retain their league title and head into the latter stages of the Champions League, their stellar front line could be crucial, as the Analysing Anfield hosts explain.

Liverpool face high-flying Leicester City at 7.15pm tonight at Anfield so Blood Red's Matt Addison speaks to Leicestershire Live's Jordan Blackwell all about Brendan Rodgers' side, including an injury update, the players the Premier League champions must watch out for, and the former Jurgen Klopp target who moved on this summer. Leicester did some good business themselves, with Wesley Fofana particularly impressing, while James Maddison and Harvey Barnes, who have both been linked with Liverpool in the past, and, of course, Jamie Vardy continue to be a huge threat. The Foxes were the only team in the Premier League to vote against the controversial Pay-Per-View scheme. Tonight’s match was one of those pencilled in to cost £14.95, before fans across the country brought about a U-Turn, so Jordan also explains why Leicester took the stance they did.

Jurgen Klopp has been speaking with the media ahead of the return of Premier League football for his Liverpool side on Sunday. Prior to Leicester City's visit to Anfield, Klopp was asked in detail about the Reds' lengthy injury list including how long Mohamed Salah will be out for and whether or not Jordan Henderson, Thiago Alcantara and Fabinho will be fit for the game. Klopp also talked about the galvanising factor the loss of key players could have in bringing his squad even closer together; Leicester's threats in particular through Jamie Vardy, and whether they have what it takes to stay in the title race.

From Andy Robertson’s 'Now You’re Gonna Believe Us', to 'Greatest Games' by Jamie Carragher, and to Melissa Reddy’s 'Believe Us', if you’re looking for a Liverpool FC book for Christmas, or even to get you through this latest lockdown, then there’s plenty to choose from. And we’d just like to introduce you to another... it’s called 'Klopp: My Liverpool Romance', and it’s written by journalist, author and lifelong Red Tony Quinn. For 15 years Huyton-born Tony was the film critic for the Independent. He is also the author of six novels. But this book is his first dive into the world of sportswriting – and it is the first UK-written book about the man who has guided Liverpool back to the top of English, European and World football. It’s not a biography in the conventional sense, more an ode, as Tony jokes, to ‘the third person in his marriage’... Jurgen Klopp. And earlier this week Paul Wheelock had to chance to speak to Tony from his home in London, all about the book, and all about his beloved Liverpool FC.

Duje Caleta-Car, Sven Botman, Benoit Badishile – they are the centre-backs Liverpool should consider signing after the serious injuries to Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez. That’s according to Josh Williams and David Hughes, who identify Marseille’s Caleta-Car, Lille’s Botman and Monaco’s Badishile as potential Jurgen Klopp transfer targets in this latest edition of the Analysing Anfield podcast. Josh and David also analyse the merits of the defenders who have already been linked with Liverpool, including Ozan Kabak of Schalke, Dayot Upamecano of RB Leipzig, Ben White of Leeds United, Gleison Bremer of Torino, plus Perr Schuurs of Ajax. The second half of the podcast focuses on Sunday’s visit of Leicester City to Anfield, explaining why Brendan Rodgers’ table-topping team might not be what they’re cracked up to be, and the danger posed by Jamie Vardy’s enduring talents.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/Visit the Liverpool ECHO website: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/liverpool-fcThe Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

Matt Addison brings you a special podcast to find out how highly rated Liverpool teenager Harvey Elliott is getting on during the early stages of his season-long loan at Blackburn Rovers. Many expected the 17-year-old winger to remain at Liverpool and train alongside Jurgen Klopp’s first-team squad. But on the domestic transfer deadline day Elliott joined up with Tony Mowbray’s Championship hopefuls Blackburn, where he has been making an instant impression. That’s according to Jaquob Crooke, who covers Rovers for the LancsLive website, and former Scotland striker Kevin Gallacher, who was part of the Blackburn squad that won the Premier League title in 1995 under Sir Kenny Dalglish. Matt speaks to both as he discovers the lengths Mowbray went to sign Elliott, how the Rovers boss keeps Liverpool up to speed with the teenager’s progress, and why the England youth international is playing in the perfect system to help him when he returns to Anfield next year. Plus, there’s a tantalising comparison with a current Reds star. Enjoy.

The Liverpool ECHO’s Connor Dunn had to chance to speak to Liverpool FC royalty on Friday when he was granted an audience with the legendary Sir Kenny Dalglish. The chance came about after Sir Kenny was appointed the Global Sporting Ambassador to British cyber technology company VST Enterprises, who have developed a secure digital health passport called the V-Health Passport. The company believe the passport will be key to getting Liverpool fans, and football supporters across the country, back into stadiums. So Connor asked Sir Kenny more about that – and about the football, of course, too, including how Jurgen Klopp will deal with his defensive injury crisis, and the potential battle for a starting spot between Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino.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/Visit the Liverpool ECHO website: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/liverpool-fcThe Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

With Liverpool dealt two more injury blows this week in the form of Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold, what comes next for Jurgen Klopp?

News broke during the recording of the Liverpool.com podcast that Joe Gomez has picked up an injury in England training this morning, Although the extent of the problem has yet to be made clear, there are fears it could be significant. And with Virgil van Dijk sidelined long term, that means Joel Matip is set to be Liverpool's only fit senior centre-back. So what do the Reds, who also lost right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold to injury in Sunday's 1-1 draw at Manchester City, as well as having concerns over stand-in centre-back Fabinho, do now? Dan Morgan, Joel Rabinowitz and Mark Wakefield attempt to answer that question as they react to the breaking news.

Jurgen Klopp shocked Liverpool supporters and perhaps Pep Guardiola too when he named Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota in his starting line-up for Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Manchester City. And, after giving their thoughts on the match itself, Josh Williams and David Hughes discuss whether Klopp’s bold 4-4-2/4-2-4 formation is one the Liverpool boss will use again. Our Analysing Anfield hosts then dig deep into the numbers of the game including a very interesting statistic about Kevin De Bruyne, who missed the chance to win it for City from the penalty spot. And, given the final international break of the year is now upon us, the second half of the podcast is all about the season so far, and whether the underlying numbers do justice to Liverpool and their to biggest title rivals, City. Josh and Dave also have a bit of fun and give their updated top-four and relegation predictions.

After Liverpool drew 1-1 at the Etihad Stadium against Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday, how should Jurgen Klopp reflect on the game? Gini Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson both impressed in the centre of the park in a midfield two, as Liverpool went with the bold front four of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino. But how should each of their performances be analysed? Wijnaldum's contract is still to be renewed and he looks set to leave on a free transfer at the end of the year, but this was yet another showing that proved his class. Firmino, too, who has been criticised in some quarters of late, looked excellent, particularly out of possession and in the first 45 minutes, but he tired second half and was replaced by the resurgent Xherdan Shaqiri. Join Guy Clarke, Ian Doyle, Paul Gorst and Matt Addison as they breakdown the result and performance and what it all means heading into the last international break of 2020.

Liverpool came away from the Etihad with a 1-1 draw with Manchester City, although they finished the game without Trent Alexander-Arnold who was forced off injured. Mohamed Salah's 10th goal of the season had given the Reds a 1-0 lead before Gabriel Jesus equalised. Kevin De Bruyne then missed a penalty to give City the lead. Join Guy Clarke as we hear from Jurgen Klopp's post-match press conference, the Liverpool ECHO's chief LFC writer Ian Doyle, plus plenty of fan reaction from the Blood Red podcast Facebook group as well as regular contributors Ross Strachan, Owen Thomas, Matt Whitty, Steve Dawson, Hannah Pinnock, Alex Watt and Mark Baker.

It has been a brilliant week for Liverpool so far after they went to Atalanta and won 5-0 thanks to a Diogo Jota hat-trick – but Jurgen Klopp would like it to get even better with a victory against Manchester City in the Premier League tomorrow. To talk about everything LFC, Neil Fitzmaurice is joined by Dan Kay and Matt Addison for the latest Poetry in Motion podcast – starting with the proof that the Reds' squad depth has come a long way since last season in the form of Jota, Rhys Williams, the rejuvenated Xherdan Shaqiri and rising star Curtis Jones. Then there is a discussion about the perfection of the Atalanta win, why it was the ideal Man City preparation, and what it means for the team-sheet at the Etihad Stadium. Finally, there is a chat about Erling Haaland and the rumours linking him with a transfer move to Anfield, plus the reversal on the PPV decision, with those matches not selected for Sky Sports or BT Sport in the UK now set to be shown free of charge until the New Year.

Jurgen Klopp confirmed Thiago will not be back for Sunday’s massive Premier League match at Manchester City at his final pre-match press conference at Melwood. Klopp, who will soon move his first-team squad and coaching staff to the club’s new training ground in Kirkby, did not put a timescale on the Spanish midfielder’s return. But he did reveal Thiago will not be ready for the trip to City, which the Liverpool boss called the ‘most difficult game in world football’. In a wide-ranging press conference, Klopp also spoke about the impact of Diogo Jota, the form of Joe Gomez since Virgil van Dijk’s injury, how many teams will battle for the title Liverpool are defending, why Roberto Firmino remains such a crucial player, and his thoughts on leaving Melwood.

Man-of-the-moment Diogo Jota is one of the big talking points of the Analysing Anfield podcast after his superb hat-trick for Liverpool in their 5-0 Champions League win at Atalanta. But before Josh Williams and David Hughes get stuck into that, they start by examining the 2-1 victory over West Ham United in the Premier League at Anfield, which proved to be another game when Liverpool conceded first. Why is that? And why could the defending champions count themselves ‘unlucky’? Talk then turns to the outstanding win over Atalanta with particular focus on Jota’s performance as the Reds’ central striker in place of Roberto Firmino. A number of fans wanted to sign Timo Werner in the summer but our hosts wonder whether Liverpool have got the better deal by buying the Wolves man instead. And the final section of the podcast focuses on Sunday’s huge match at Manchester City, whose underlying statistics suggest they aren’t quite the same attacking threat they once were.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.
