Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

Liverpool take on Burnley this evening so Matt Addison gets the lowdown on Sean Dyche's side from LancsLive reporter Alex James. The Reds are struggling for goals at the moment, but how likely is it that they will flow at Anfield tonight, and do the Clarets sense a rare opportunity to win away at a top-six side? Well, not quite, but the return of key man Dwight McNeil will be a big boost in an attacking sense for a team who collectively have found the net four fewer times in the Premier League this season than Mohamed Salah has on his own. Burnley do not concede many, but they don't score loads either. So does that make them a good or bad team for Jurgen Klopp's men to have to face off against next? Finally, there is a word on the latest US owners in the top flight of the English game, with ALK Capital's tenure at Turf Moor just three weeks old as they follow FSG in making the move into the Premier League.Like our podcasts and videos?

Will Liverpool have missed out should they not sign David Alaba from Bayern Munich? And does the next step of their transfer evolution involve Erling Haaland? Dan Morgan, Joel Rabinowitz and Ollie Connelly discuss those two possible deals as well as examining the bigger transfer picture in this week’s Liverpool.com podcast. The second half of the show focuses on the Reds’ front three after they again failed to find the net in Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Manchester United at Anfield. Could taking one or two of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino out of the starting line-up help Liverpool get the result they desperately need at home to Burnley on Thursday?

Harvey Elliott, Marko Grujic and Taiwo Awoniyi are all at different stages of their Liverpool careers, but all are out on loan this season. At around the halfway mark in the campaign, Matt Addison checks in on the trio, who are stationed at Blackburn Rovers, FC Porto and Union Berlin respectively, to get the latest on each player's progress so far. LancsLive's Jaquob Crooke gives the lowdown on the positional switch getting even more out of Elliott in the Championship, before Portuguese football expert Scott Martin explains how Grujic is getting on in the Primeira Liga. And finally, Constantin Eckner, a Bundesliga journalist, outlines what might come next for Awoniyi, the forward who has five goals and three assists this season. The Nigerian has been a Reds player since 2015, but has so far struggled to get a work permit. How is each player getting on this season, and how likely is it that each has a long-term future at Anfield? Enjoy.Like our podcasts and videos?
