Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

As Liverpool face Watford at the weekend, the Liverpool.com podcast assesses the Reds' model and analyses whether there are any lessons that FSG could learn from other clubs. Claudio Ranieri will take charge of Watford for the first time on Saturday, becoming the latest in a long line of Hornets managers, while Liverpool's weekend opponents signed 11 players this summer. Host James Martin is joined by Matt Addison and Emmet Gates to look at Liverpool at one end of the stability spectrum and compare and contrast them to teams like Watford and Chelsea at the other. Plus, with the time coming for Jurgen Klopp to be replaced over the next few years, will the Liverpool model alter at all once the German has gone?

Steven Gerrard is one of the leading contenders for the Newcastle United job if, as reported, Steve Bruce will soon be sacked. But should the Anfield great make the move from Rangers, where he has done an incredible job, if he was offered the position? And would it help or hinder his chances of potentially taking over from Jurgen Klopp at his beloved Liverpool? It’s one of the big talking points of the Blood Red podcast, hosted by Matt Addison and featuring the Liverpool ECHO’s LFC correspondent Paul Gorst, and Kai Delaney. Also on the agenda are comments Gini Wijnaldum made about his time at Paris Saint-Germain. But, while it’s not gone well for the Dutch international in the French capital so far, have Liverpool replaced him yet?
