Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

Liverpool will look to make it a club record seven straight wins to start a season when they welcome Southampton to Anfield this afternoon.
And you would not bet against them given the fabulous form Jurgen Klopp’s side are in.
But what of the team standing in their way?
Well, for our Preview podcast, we spoke to a Saints expert to get the inside track.
Adam Leitch is the chief sports writer of the Southern Daily Echo, who can also be found on the Total Saints Podcast, and we talked Southampton’s form, Danny Ings, Mark Hughes, the revolving door at St Mary’s, Virgil van Dijk and much more else besides.
You will then hear from our Liverpool FC correspondent James Pearce, who sent over some thoughts on the drive back from Jurgen Klopp’s press conference at Melwood. Don’t worry, he was in the passenger seat.
Enjoy – and we’ll be back later for our Post-Game show. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

The wins over Tottenham Hotspur and Paris Saint-Germain have made it a superb week so far for Jurgen Klopp’s senior side.
But it’s also been seven days to savour for the club’s younger teams.
There was a third straight league victory for Barry Lewtas’ U18s before Neil Critchey’s U23s got their season up and running with a success that was aided by the inclusion of a number of first-team players.
But arguably the most impressive result of the lot came on Tuesday when the U19s, managed by Lewtas, swept aside Paris Saint-Germain 5-2 in their UEFA Youth League opener.
Our Liverpool FC correspondent James Pearce joins host Paul Wheelock to reflect on the hat-trick of wins and give a progress check on some of the starlets currently catching the eye, including Rafa Camacho and Curtis Jones, Bobby Adekanye, Paul Glatzel and Bobby Duncan, as well as new boy Ki-Jana Hoever.
James also speaks about Liverpool FC Women, who ended a difficult week, which saw the shock departure of manager Neil Redfearn, on a positive note.

Neil Fitzmaurice is back with his Poetry in Motion podcast and for the latest episode he is joined by Dan Kay and reunited with Joe Rimmer.
The trio kick off the show by looking back on Liverpool's statement-making victories over the past week.
Dan explains why the win over Tottenham was proof positive of the biggest development in Jurgen Klopp’s side and why Tuesday must go down as one of the great European nights at Anfield.
Whereas Joe was shocked at just how much better Liverpool were than Spurs but less surprised that Paris Saint-Germain went the way of Roma, Manchester City and so many others.
Fitzy reckons someone is going to be on the end of a beating soon and that opens up a discussion about the area that the Reds need to improve despite their perfect start to the season.
It is a season that continues at home to Southampton on Saturday and Dan believes this is where Klopp will now really start to earn his corn.
Selection for the visits of the Saints, and then Chelsea in the Carabao Cup, is a major talking point, but the lads find it bizarre that some are suggesting that Mohamed Salah should be taken out of the team.
Joe also hails one Liverpool player the greatest in the world in his position while Dan see similarities between another of Klopp’s key men and one of the best – if not the best – player ever to pull on a Red shirt.
It’s a brilliant listen. Enjoy.  For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
