Matt Addison speaks to the Norwegian starlet about life after Liverpool, working with Steven Gerrard, why he initially opted for the Reds over Man City and Everton, and what he thinks of former teammates Curtis Jones and Rhys Williams, who appeared in the Champions League this week for the senior team.

Welcome to the Post-Game podcast to react to Liverpool’s 1-0 win over Ajax in their Champions League opener in Amsterdam on Wednesday night. After the anger and frustration at what unfolded in the Merseyside derby on Saturday, the supporters who join us on this show are, understandably, in a much better mood after a job well done by Jurgen Klopp’s injury-hit side. But before we hear from Matt Whitty, Lauren Black, Steve Dawson, Ross Strachan, Owen Thomas and Mark Baker, we’ll start by getting the verdict of the Liverpool ECHO’s Liverpool FC correspondent Paul Gorst and every word of Klopp's after-match press conference.

Liverpool face Ajax in the Champions League this evening, but what should we expect from Erik Ten Hag and his players? Blood Red's Matt Addison speaks to Football Oranje's Michael Statham to get the lowdown on the Dutch side, including their strengths and weaknesses, how they will approach the game, and how they have changed since reaching the Champions League semi-finals in 2019. Frenkie de Jong, Hakim Ziyech and Donny van de Beek may no longer be in Amsterdam, but there are plenty of other threats, including David Neres, who has been linked with a big-money transfer move to Liverpool in the past, and a new Brazilian wonderkid who is tipped to cause the Reds' defence problems. Michael also provides the Dutch view on Virgil van Dijk's ACL injury and explains how Liverpool have already missed out on signing his ideal replacement.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp addressed Virgil van Dijk’s knee injury and whether Liverpool will look to the transfer market for a replacement at his press conference in Amsterdam this evening. The Reds take on Ajax in their Group B Champions League opener on Wednesday night, but much of the focus was away from the game, as Klopp was also asked about Everton’s challenges in the Merseyside derby, with Thiago Alcantara also being injured at Goodison Park. During an explosive press conference, the German also confirmed Fabinho is likely to play in defence, given Joel Matip, along with Thiago and Van Dijk, is sidelined. Gini Wijnaldum was also in front of the media and he too was asked about van Dijk, giving an impassioned response regarding Everton's physical approach at Goodison Park.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

Josh Williams and David Hughes are back with a second Analysing Anfield podcast in as many days as they review Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at Everton and preview the Champions League opener at Ajax and Saturday’s visit of Sheffield United to Anfield. Monday’s special edition focused on how Liverpool are going to cope without Virgil van Dijk after the world’s best centre-back suffered a serious knee injury in the Merseyside derby. One of the cases put forward here regards new midfielder Thiago Alcantara, whose magnificent display against Everton is analysed in depth, as are the performances of stand-in goalkeeper Adrian and Joe Gomez and Joel Matip, who will now have to shoulder the burden in van Dijk’s absence. However, Josh explains why it may make more sense to put Fabinho back there. Talk then turns to Wednesday’s trip to Ajax, and why it could be another thrilling match in a season packed full of them, and this weekend’s Premier League clash with Sheffield United, which will see the swift return of Rhian Brewste

After a busy transfer window, Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano joins Matt Addison to speak about the Champions League - and Liverpool's chances of winning the tournament. On the agenda are all of the big rivals the Reds will have to beat around Europe in order to claim their seventh European Cup, including Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Juventus, and PSG. Which of those teams have strengthened the most since last season? Does the Thiago Alcantara transfer switch the odds in favour of Liverpool in 2020/21? And which players should football fans watch out for? As well as talking all things Champions League, Fabrizio and Matt also discuss potential future transfer moves for the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland, who could both be on the move next summer, and who both have been linked with Liverpool at times in the past.

How do Liverpool replace Virgil van Dijk? With the news that the Netherlands captain is set to undergo surgery on an ACL injury which could keep him out for the rest of the season, Josh Williams and David Hughes host a special episode of Analysing Anfield to assess the options Jurgen Klopp has in front of him. Joe Gomez and Joel Matip appear the obvious candidates, but could Fabinho or even RB Leipzig's Dayot Upamecano be the man to replace Van Dijk in Liverpool's defence?The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

The Blood Red podcast reacts to the news that Jordan Pickford will not be banned for his horror tackle on Virgil van Dijk; that Alisson Becker could be back by the end of the month, and that Joel Matip has today undergone a scan. If Matip’s leg injury proves serious that means Liverpool could be down to one fit recognised centre-back for Wednesday’s Champions League opener with Ajax after Van Dijk sustained a serious injury at the hands of Pickford in Saturday’s 2-2 Merseyside derby draw with Everton at Goodison Park. But some much-needed good news for Jurgen Klopp comes in the fact that goalkeeper Alisson is making good progress in his return from injury and could even be fit to face West Ham United at Anfield on Saturday, October 31. Ian Doyle, Joe Rimmer, Connor Dunn and host Matt Addison discuss all that as well as reviewing the controversial clash with Everton and previewing the trip to Amsterdam to take on Ajax.

Virgil van Dijk's season could be in doubt with the Dutchman set for surgery after damaging his ACL in the Merseyside derby against Everton. Jordan Pickford's lunge at van Dijk resulted in him being substituted after just nine minutes at Goodison Park and, following consultation with a specialist, the defender is now set for a prolonged spell on the sidelines.

Liverpool throw-in coach Thomas Gronnemark has worked with the Premier League champions for two seasons - but he has also been employed by both Ajax and FC Midtjylland in the past. So who better to get the lowdown on two of Liverpool's Group D Champions League opponents than the Dane ahead of the trip to the Netherlands to take on Ajax in their opening match on Wednesday night? Jurgen Klopp and his coaching staff and players will certainly be taking note. Thomas also explains why he feels FIFA and Arsene Wenger's proposed law changes would be bad not only for Liverpool, but also for football more widely, and why he has gone back on the suggestion that he would not work for one of the Reds' top-six Premier League rivals.

Liverpool were held to a 2-2 draw at Goodison Park against Everton in the 237th Merseyside derby. That was despite Jordan Henderson having a stoppage-time 'winner' ruled out for offside against Sadio Mane on a controversial afternoon for VAR. Jordan Pickford clattered into Virgil van Dijk, resulting in the Dutchman leaving the pitch injured, with no punishment handed out before the late drama, after Richarlison was sent-off for the Blues. Join Guy Clarke as we bring you reaction from Jurgen Klopp, in his post-match press conference, the ECHO's Liverpool FC correspondent Paul Gorst, as well as our regular contributors Alex Watt, Lauren Black, Owen Thomas, Ross Strachan, Hannah Pinnock and Mark Baker.

It’s a special joint edition of the Liverpool ECHO’s Analysing Anfield and Analysing Everton podcasts as we preview Saturday’s Everton v Liverpool Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. In the red corner we have Josh Williams, and in the blue corner we have David Hughes, but despite their allegiances, they remain as objective as ever as they pick apart what could be the most intriguing derby in years. Everton will go into the 12.30pm kick-off riding high at the top of the Premier League while Liverpool will make the short trip across Stanley Park with tails between their legs after the heavy defeat at Aston Villa before the international break. Surely, then, Carlo Ancelotti will instruct his side to take the game to the defending champions? Josh and David discuss that, and use the underlying statistics to explain why this is a true battle of the best two teams in the country on form at the moment, before turning their thoughts to which areas both the Blues and the Reds will look to exploit tomorrow.
