Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

It's the sixth episode of Analysing Anfield as Kristian Walsh and Josh Williams try to make some sense over what happened on Sunday afternoon, as a last-gasp victory over Tottenham sent Liverpool back to the top of the Premier League. The midfield trio is once more under the spotlight with explanations offered over why Jurgen Klopp likes it so much. There is a doting love letter to Virgil van Dijk and how he kept Moussa Sissoko quiet, while the team also try to quantify if the Reds are feeling the 'nerves' of a title race. Friday night's trip to Southampton is laced with caution and danger too as the Liverpool manager meets 'the Alpine Klopp', Ralph Hassenhuttl; the Austrian's style is assessed, as is the dead-ball ability of James Ward-Prowse, with a surprise midfield three named as best to deal with the Saints' intense pressing game.

Recovered yet? James Pearce, Ian Doyle, Joe Rimmer and Connor Dunn have – well, just about – to record the latest edition of the brilliant Blood Red podcast which, unsurprisingly, focuses on Liverpool’s last-gasp 2-1 win over Tottenham and all the big talking points from a dramatic afternoon at Anfield. It was a win that moved the Reds back to the top of the Premier League and James, in particular, believes it was much more than just three points. The own-goal winner – which resulted in Joe jumping on Paul Gorst in the ECHO office and us reporting it late on the site – was undoubtedly lucky, and it’s not the first time this season that fortune has smiled on Jurgen Klopp’s side. But what does it say about this group of players that they keep getting the rub of the green? The panel discuss that before lavishing praise on Virgil van Dijk and Andy Robertson and explaining why Klopp started Fabinho on the bench – and how that decision came so close to backfiring on the Liverpool boss. There’s also talk of the Reds’ new wildcard, and just how Tottenham may now struggle to qualify for the Champions League, before talk turns to good old Neil Warnock and his controversial comments before Cardiff City’s match at Manchester City on Wednesday. Brexit gets a mention. Enjoy. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

If you go back a month Tottenham would have moved within two points of Liverpool and Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table with a win at Burnley. But that defeat at Turf Moor sparked a drastic drop in form, which means they go into Sunday’s massive match at Anfield 16 points behind City, and 15 behind the Reds, who will go back top with victory. However, the game is viewed by many, including our own James Pearce, as Liverpool’s toughest remaining test. But after a week in which the focus has been on their impressive new stadium, will Tottenham have their mind on the job? And are now they prioritising their Champions League quarter-final with Manchester City? To get the answers to those questions, and also talk the future of Mauricio Pochettino, and what should be a brilliant battle between Virgil van Dijk and Harry Kane, Paul Wheelock picks up the phone to Alasdair Gold, who covers Spurs home and away for the Football.London website.

Jurgen Klopp was back in front of the media at Melwood this afternoon - and the Liverpool boss cut a relaxed and upbeat figure. Little wonder, with his side top of the Premier League going into this Sunday's visit of Tottenham to Anfield. But his mood could also be down to the positive team news he delivers here on Trent Alexander-Arnold, Xherdan Shaqiri and Joe Gomez. For now, however, he says he plans to keep Alex Oxalde-Chamberlain in the 'shadows'. The Reds boss also speaks passionately and eloquently on the issue of racism following the abuse suffered by England players in their match in Montenegro before talks turn to the Spurs test, the respect he has for his opposite number Mauricio Pochettino, and just how important the win at Wembley in the reverse fixture earlier in the campaign truly was. Klopp is also asked how he and his players are feeling going into the final seven games of what could be an historic league season.
