Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

The signing of Alisson for a world record fee for a goalkeeper dominates the latest episode of the brilliant Allez Les Rouges podcast.
Host Peter Hooton and his guests, Steph Jones, Ste Monaghan and John Nicolson, are all delighted that the Brazilian has been brought in.
But, as well as discussing what kind of keeper the Reds are getting, they look at the wider context of Alisson’s arrival, and ask what it says about Jurgen Klopp, FSG’s policy, and the balance of power in the Premier League.
Not that they are completely satisfied, though.
Yes, as well as being pleased by the arrivals of Naby Keita and Xherdan Shaqiri, who they reckon could bring the bit of nark the Reds have been missing, Peter and Co still want Klopp to make at least one more signing in one area in particular.
If that happens, though, that may lead to the departure of a player who has returned to pre-season looking as sharp as he has in years.
But, the question they ask is, can Klopp trust him?
The World Cup also gets a mention – as well as THOSE Dejan Lovren comments.
It’s another great listen. Enjoy. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

It's time for another episode of the Blood Red podcast.
And this week, Joe Rimmer is joined by Paul Gorst, Dan Kay and Liverpool FC reporter (both home and away) James Pearce to talk Xherdan Shaqiri, Bury and you guessed it, goalkeepers.
Danny Ward is to be given his chance as Liverpool's first-choice goalkeeper and James is pleased to see the Welshman rewarded for his patience, but he still believes that Jurgen Klopp might need to dip into the transfer market.
There's plenty of discussion about Shaqiri and whether the Swiss winger is the right fit for the Reds.
Then we discuss Liverpool's trip to Bury and the return of centre-backs Joel Matip and Virgil van Dijk.
And no discussion about defenders is complete without mention of The World's Greatest Defender Dejan Lovren, who Paul Gorst reckons could be in the running for the Ballon d'Or after his performances for club and country this year.
It might sound crazy - but there's method to Paul's madness.
It all adds up to another must-listen Blood Red podcast. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

Neil Fitzmaurice is back with his latest Poetry in Motion podcast alongside the ECHO’s Joe Rimmer and Paul Wheelock – and the trio have a lot to talk about.
England’s World Cup exit, Dejan Lovren’s eye-catching comments, Naby Keita, Fabinho and Daniel Sturridge are all up for debate.
But the two biggest areas of discussion concern Liverpool’s under-pressure goalkeeper and their business in the transfer market.
The spotlight is very much back on Loris Karius after his blunder in the friendly at Tranmere Rovers – and Fitzy, Joe and Paul discuss what Jurgen Klopp must do next.
Should the Reds boss keep faith with Karius? Or should he give Danny Ward or Simon Mignolet a go? Or should Klopp pay the money Roma want for Allison?
The lads also make sense of the latest rumours including the impending arrival of Xherdan Shaqiri and whether he will be joined at Anfield by Domagoj Vida and – yes him – Nabil Fekir.
And another brilliant podcast ends with Fitzy revealing the ECHO’s exciting plans for a live Blood Red podcast event.
