Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

We have a Blood Red podcast with a difference for you as Sean Bradbury is joined by the Liverpool ECHO’s political editor Liam Thorp to explore the concerns that have grown on Merseyside following the Champions League match between Liverpool and Atletico Madrid at Anfield on March 11. Despite growing fears around coronavirus in England, the match was allowed to be played in front of 52,000 supporters – which included around 3,000 travelling fans from Madrid, where at the time the virus was rife and where gatherings of more than 1,000 people had been banned. It is impossible to answer whether the match – the last major football game to be staged in England before the country went into lockdown – led to the significant spread of coronavirus in Liverpool. But what Liam, who has covered this story extensively, taking it even to Downing Street, can answer, is what the thought-process was of the authorities before the match, and how it has changed since. He also talks about the investigation launched by Liverpool City Council into the game – and the response he got when he put the concerns felt by many on Merseyside about it to the government. It was a response that made back-page national news.

From Alisson Becker, Virgil van Dijk, Fabinho, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, Liverpool have been lauded for plenty of their transfer business. But under the management of Jurgen Klopp, the Reds have in fact missed out on a number of ‘reported’ targets they were chasing before turning attentions elsewhere. Alex Teixeira, Julian Brandt, Ben Chilwell, Mario Gotze, Piotr Zielinski, Mahmoud Dahoud, Jorginho and Nabil Fekir are some of the more public pursuits. And Josh Williams and David Hughes look through the data to work out whether those players would’ve worked at Anfield, or if they’re better off without. Enjoy.

Since the turn of the Millennium, Liverpool have gone close to delivering an elusive 19th league title on a number of occasions. Whilst 2019, 2014 and 2009 all stick in the memory, back in 2002 the Reds were embroiled in a three-horse race until the final weeks of the season. To look back on that, his time under Gerard Houllier at Anfield, the Treble in 2001 and his perhaps forgotten strike partnership with Nicolas Anelka, former Reds forward Emile Heskey catches up with Guy Clarke for our latest podcast. Plus they delve into the current issues around how players will be maintaining themselves during the break from action. Enjoy.
