After Wolves were comfortably beaten by Liverpool on Sunday night, the Analysing Anfield podcast is back to review that game and preview the trip to Fulham next weekend. Josh Williams and David Hughes also talk Gini Wijnaldum's contract situation, and why a new deal for the Dutch midfielder is not necessarily the right thing to do for the Reds long-term. They also reflect on Roberto Firmino's upturn in form, plus look ahead to the Champions League clash with FC Midtjylland on Wednesday. Caoimhin Kelleher, Neco Williams and Curtis Jones are among those young starlets impressing for Liverpool at the moment and all three could feature in that game. After discussing that trip, talk turns to Fulham and why Scott Parker's side are probably better than you might think, with a couple of players to watch for among their ranks including André-Frank Zambo Anguissa. Enjoy.

Following on from Liverpool’s 4-0 win over Wolves, as fans returned to Anfield for the first time since March, the Blood Red podcast is here to react. Join Guy Clarke, Paul Gorst, Matt Addison and Dan Kay as they look back on the resounding victory over Nuno Espirito Santo's side, which was watched by 2,000 supporters, and much more. With Gini Wijnaldum playing a key role for the Reds, he comes into the conversation. The Dutch midfielder can negotiate with clubs abroad from January 1 over a pre-contract agreement to begin at the end of this season. So why has a new deal not been agreed yet? And should Michael Edwards get the situation sorted off the back of Wijnaldum's early-season form? Plus, with 11 games of the Premier League campaign played, the panel takes a look at how the title race is shaping up, and which teams might rival Liverpool at the very top come the end of the campaign. Enjoy.

Matt Addison speaks to the Birmingham Mail's Alex Dicken to get the on Wolves ahead of their visit to Anfield on Sunday. Among the topics of discussion are: Diogo Jota and Ki-Jana Hoever, who swapped clubs this summer; the injured Raul Jimenez and how Wolves will line-up without their version of Roberto Firmino; teenage prodigy Fabio Silva, who was developed at Porto by Liverpool coach Vitor Matos, plus the exciting attacking duo Pedro Neto and Daniel Podence, who are likely to supplement Adama Traore in a dangerous-looking attack. There is also a word on fans returning to Anfield for the first time since the Champions League exit at the hands of Atletico Madrid last season, with Wolves one of the Premier League teams who are not located in Tier Two, and therefore must wait a little longer to have their supporters back at Molineux. Enjoy.
