Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

Liverpool have signed Diogo Jota from Wolves for an initial fee of £41m, with the forward potentially to make his Reds debut on Thursday night. To get the lowdown on the Portugal international, Blood Red's Matt Addison speaks to the Birmingham Mail's Alex Dicken, who covers Wolves regularly. Alex explains where Jota will fit in under Jurgen Klopp, why he could one day be a long-term replacement for either Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino, and how he compares to Adama Traore. There is also an interesting comparison made to former Liverpool striker Luis Suarez, though Jota will have to considerably increase his consistency to reach anything like the Uruguayan's level! The chat concludes with a discussion about Ki-Jana Hoever, the Dutch youngster who moved to Wolves from Liverpool for a fee that could rise to as much as £13.5m, in a separate transfer deal.

So, Blood Red's Matt Addison speaks to Spanish football analyst Domagoj Kostanjšak to get the lowdown on the former Barcelona playmaker.

Ahead of Liverpool’s massive early-season match at Chelsea, the Analysing Anfield podcast assesses the defensive problems that seemed to blight their 4-3 win at home to Leeds United. Were the defending Premier League champions that bad at the back in their opening game? Or, digging deep into the underlying statistics, is that too simplistic a point of view? Josh Williams and David Hughes are on hand to answer those questions plus whether the one mistake Liverpool definitely made at the weekend – that led to Leeds’ second equaliser – will actually benefit Virgil van Dijk in the long run. Our hosts also look at Alisson’s performance before turning their attention to the hat-trick hero, Mohamed Salah, who will go up against his former club this weekend. The spotlight is therefore shone on Chelsea’s match at Brighton with particular focus on the displays of new boys Kai Havertz and Timo Werner, who was strongly linked with Liverpool before moving to Stamford Bridge. Chelsea may have won 3-1 but some old habits die hard and, with Salah in superb form, Josh and Dave explain why that might be bad news for Frank Lampard.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has followed in Steven Gerrard's footsteps by picking up the PFA Young Player the Year award and, along with four other of his Liverpool team-mates, has been named in PFA Team of Year. Liverpool's Rhian Brewster stance, meanwhile, has been made clear, while it seems Gini Wijnaldum will soon be speaking to Jurgen Klopp to give the club clarity over his future.

Liverpool's final pre-season match of the summer saw both Takumi Minamino and Sadio Mane get on the scoresheet in a 7-2 win over Blackpool. With several stars away on international duty, it was a mixed XI that took to the field in the first half and they struggled to perform, trailing 2-1 at the break.
