Blood Red: The Liverpool Fc Podcast

Analysing Anfield is one of our most-loved podcasts but the only shame is that it wasn’t going when Liverpool started to put together the squad that has developed into the champions of the Premier League, Europe and the World. That robbed the podcast’s loyal listeners of the chance to hear Josh Williams and David Hughes dig deep into the underlying numbers to explain why Jurgen Klopp, Michael Edwards and Co chose to sign the likes of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Andy Robertson and Virgil van Dijk. So, with it all quiet on the transfer front, that’s exactly what Josh and David have done for this week’s episode. If you liked the detail the duo went into in last week’s episode on Reds news boy Kostas Tsimikas, then you are going to love this. It’s a fascinating insight into the thought process behind the recruitment of players that have become the greatest on the planet at Anfield.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijnders and elite development coach Vitor Matos are a crucial part of Jurgen Klopp's backroom team. But little is known about the pair - particularly the latter. So, for this special Blood Red podcast, Matt Addison picks up the phone to Jose Tavares, a coach who has occupied plenty of roles within FC Porto's youth academy over the years, and who worked with both Lijnders and Matos while they were at the Portuguese club. Tavares gives Blood Red the inside track on the key Reds coaches, explaining why both are so good at their jobs. Lijnders is one of the names in the mix as a potential successor when Klopp departs Liverpool, while Matos is following in the Dutchman's footsteps, having taken on a role that Lijnders used to fill. Matos arrived on Merseyside after receiving a personal recommendation from Lijnders, who labelled him Liverpool's 'best signing of the season' last year. Tavares has some great insight into both, with tales about the duo that Reds fans will not have hear

The latest Liverpool.com podcast is here, with Kristian Walsh, Dan Morgan and Joel Rabinowitz discussing one of the major storylines coming out of this summer: player sales. With the belief selling players could lead to funding the purchase of others, which players would you sell? The team run through the entire squad, ranking and rating the likelihood of their departures from Anfield Some are obvious (no-one is selling Alisson, Trent or big Virg, right?) but the likes of Matip, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Origi and even the front three cause some debate. There's also a short discussion on how awful Thomas Tuchel is, and how awful the new Nike away kit could be.

New reports from Germany suggest Liverpool FC are in talks with Bayern Munich over the transfer of Thiago Alcantara. But what is the view from Merseyside? That’s the big talking point of the Blood Red podcast, which also discusses another possible transfer target for the Premier League champions, Brighton & Hove Albion defender Ben White, who impressed on loan at Leeds United last season. Guy Clarke, Theo Squires, Caoimhe O’Neill and debutant Peter Harris (before technical difficulties means he has to leave the pitch early) also talk a big change to Liverpool’s pre-season training plans, plus news of awards for right-back Trent-Alexander Arnold and captain Jordan Henderson.

Liverpool and the Red Bull group have a special, unofficial bond that has formed over the last few seasons. On this special edition of the Blood Red podcast, Matt Addison explores just that, with the links going well beyond the transfer of Takumi Minamino and the speculation surrounding Timo Werner, before the German moved to Chelsea. Red Bull Salzburg boss Jesse Marsch begins the conversation, before we hear from Guido Schaefer, a journalist covering RB Leipzig who also happens to have been a teammate of Jurgen Klopp at Mainz, and Josh Williams, our Analysing Anfield favourite and tactics writer. On the agenda: the style of play that the clubs share, how Klopp's mentor Ralf Rangnick was vital to that being the case, the players that Marsch believes Liverpool are interested in from his team and from Leipzig, why he, RB Leipzig's Julian Nagelsmann and Borussia Monchengladbach's Marco Rose could be the man to succeed Klopp when the German departs, and plenty more.

Liverpool may have first made a move for Norwich City’s Jamal Lewis – but Kostas Tsimikas is the ‘perfect candidate’ to provide cover and competition for Andy Robertson. That’s according to Josh Williams and David Hughes, who dig deep into the stats to look at why Norwich’s decision to turn down a big-money bid for Lewis may actually prove to be a blessing in disguise for Liverpool - unless it was their intention to always go for Tsimikas... After discussing an interesting theory, Josh and Dave look at the type of left-back the Reds are getting and explain why, unlike a number of Jurgen Klopp signings, the Greece international could fit in straightaway at Anfield.
