Liverpool went top of the Premier League with a win over Tottenham Hotspur in midweek, and face Roy Hodgson's Crystal Palace next. Jurgen Klopp confirmed on Friday morning that Thiago Alcantara, Xherdan Shaqiri and James Milner were all edging closer to a return to action after injury, though none will feature against Palace on Saturday lunchtime. Join Matt Addison, David Lynch and Theo Squires as they talk through the impact of those timely returns, plus discuss the future of Divock Origi, who is being linked with a transfer move away from Anfield. The panel also react to the news that Premier League clubs have once again voted against implementing a five-subs rule, but will have nine players permitted on the bench from now on, as well as naming their teams and predictions for the trip to Selhurst Park.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/Visit the Liverpool ECHO website: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/liverpool-fcThe Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

What a way to start your Friday as Neil Fitzmaurice is joined by Joe Rimmer and Matt Addison for the latest edition of his superb Poetry in Motion podcast. After a heartfelt tribute to Gerard Houllier, the much-loved Reds manager who passed away aged 73 this week, the trio get stuck into the draw with Fulham and the win over Tottenham Hotspur that took Jurgen Klopp’s champions back to the top of the table. There is a discussion about the progression of Rhys Williams and, in particular, Curtis Jones, as well as praise for Roberto Firmino, who made Tim Sherwood look silly when he gloriously headed in the winner against Spurs. And the merits of signing another centre-back is also brought up, especially when it is framed around real fears Fitzy and Joe have if Liverpool do not defend their title this season.

It’s the final Liverpool.com podcast of the year as Ollie Connolly and Mark Wakefield join Dan Morgan to talk the win over Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham Hotspur, the brilliance of Curtis Jones, the games to come, and why Jurgen Klopp should buy a centre-midfielder, and not a centre-back, in the January transfer window.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/Visit the Liverpool ECHO website: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/liverpool-fcThe Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

Welcome to the Post-Game podcast on the Blood Red channel - and what a show we have for you as we react to Liverpool 2 Tottenham Hotspur 1. It was a victory that sent Liverpool above Jose Mourinho’s Spurs to the top of the Premier League table - and it was one that was rapturously received by the 2,000 supporters who were lucky enough to be at Anfield, and by the millions of Reds fans around the world. You will hear from four happy Koppites in the second half of this podcast: Owen Thomas, Hannah Pinnock, Lauren Black and Ross Strachan. But the show starts at Anfield with the verdict of the Liverpool ECHO’s Liverpool FC correspondent Paul Gorst - and Jurgen Klopp's press conference in full.

Ahead of tonight’s huge match, Matt Addison speaks to Football.London's Tottenham Hotspur reporter Alasdair Gold to get the lowdown on the visitors to Anfield and the team Jose Mourinho has taken to the top of the table. In Harry Kane, Spurs have a player looking more like Roberto Firmino every week that goes by, while Heung-min Son is benefiting greatly from his captain’s transition to a creator as well as a goalscorer. Along with Gareth Bale, Tottenham fans hope they have a trio to rival Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Firmino, and while they aren’t quite there yet, the quality of the individuals is clear. It’s also the case in the other areas of the pitch, where Sergio Reguilon, who Liverpool looked at before signing Kostas Tsimikas in the summer, has started life in north London in fine form. Tanguy N’Dombele, meanwhile, has turned a corner, making the midfield battle something to look forward to at Anfield for a Liverpool team still with a plethora of injury problems limiting their selection options (despite what Mourinho says).

Welcome to the Press Conference on the Blood Red channel, where usually we hear just from Jurgen Klopp ahead of Liverpool’s next match. But seeing as their next match is such a big one, we will also be hearing from the manager of the Tottenham Hotspur team that will arrive at Anfield tomorrow night for a top-of-the-table battle... and that manager, of course, being Jose Mourinho. Jurgen praised Jose for turning Spurs into a ‘result machine' at his press conference at Kirby, and Jose responded to those comments at his own press conference, later in the afternoon, as well as making some interesting remarks about Liverpool’s injury problems. You can hear both of the press conferences, which includes touching tributes to the late, great Gerard Houllier, here.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/Visit the Liverpool ECHO website: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/liverpool-fcThe Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

After the Champions League draw was made, pairing Liverpool with RB Leipzig, Josh Williams and David Hughes look at that enticing encounter and preview the visit of Tottenham Hotspur to Anfield. Julian Nagelsmann's Leipzig side will provide a stern test for Jurgen Klopp's men to navigate, but with that tie still a number of weeks away, there is plenty of time for things to change - particularly on the Liverpool injury front. With Harry Kane, Jose Mourinho and Co first to come to town on Wednesday, the Analysing Anfield regulars look into how the game might pan out, with Spurs set to provide a massive test for the Reds, whether Joel Matip is back from injury or not. Kane is far from their only threat, with Heung-min Son, Tanguy N'Dombele and plenty of others picked out as being big threats. Liverpool will certainly have to improve on their performance at Fulham if they are to get anything from Tottenham in what should be a mouthwatering encounter at the summit of the Premier League. There is also a look ahead to Crystal Palace this weekend, which concludes a difficult week for Klopp's side, including that dreaded Wednesday night and Saturday lunchtime turnaround.

Former Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier, who won an historic treble with the Reds in 2001, has died at the age of 73. The Blood Red podcast reflects on the man who, as well as winning six trophies in his own right at Anfield, provided the platform for later success, bringing through Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher and modernising Liverpool FC in almost every aspect. Houllier also managed the likes of PSG and Lyon, as well as the French national team, and later worked for the Red Bull group, who owns RB Leipzig, who Liverpool drew in the Champions League this morning. The panel, with host Matt Addison joined by Kristian Walsh, Joe Rimmer and Dan Kay, also discuss that last-16 draw, and look ahead to the Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday, including picking their teams and making their score predictions.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.
