Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

The latest Liverpool.com podcast is here, with Kristian Walsh, Dan Morgan and Joel Rabinowitz discussing one of the major storylines coming out of this summer: player sales. With the belief selling players could lead to funding the purchase of others, which players would you sell? The team run through the entire squad, ranking and rating the likelihood of their departures from Anfield Some are obvious (no-one is selling Alisson, Trent or big Virg, right?) but the likes of Matip, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Origi and even the front three cause some debate. There's also a short discussion on how awful Thomas Tuchel is, and how awful the new Nike away kit could be. But it's all about the tier game this week, and once you have listened, you can play along and leave your votes here: https://data.reachplc.com/202264091516853The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.

New reports from Germany suggest Liverpool FC are in talks with Bayern Munich over the transfer of Thiago Alcantara. But what is the view from Merseyside? That’s the big talking point of the Blood Red podcast, which also discusses another possible transfer target for the Premier League champions, Brighton & Hove Albion defender Ben White, who impressed on loan at Leeds United last season. Guy Clarke, Theo Squires, Caoimhe O’Neill and debutant Peter Harris (before technical difficulties means he has to leave the pitch early) also talk a big change to Liverpool’s pre-season training plans, plus news of awards for right-back Trent-Alexander Arnold and captain Jordan Henderson.

Liverpool and the Red Bull group have a special, unofficial bond that has formed over the last few seasons. On this special edition of the Blood Red podcast, Matt Addison explores just that, with the links going well beyond the transfer of Takumi Minamino and the speculation surrounding Timo Werner, before the German moved to Chelsea. Red Bull Salzburg boss Jesse Marsch begins the conversation, before we hear from Guido Schaefer, a journalist covering RB Leipzig who also happens to have been a teammate of Jurgen Klopp at Mainz, and Josh Williams, our Analysing Anfield favourite and tactics writer. On the agenda: the style of play that the clubs share, how Klopp's mentor Ralf Rangnick was vital to that being the case, the players that Marsch believes Liverpool are interested in from his team and from Leipzig, why he, RB Leipzig's Julian Nagelsmann and Borussia Monchengladbach's Marco Rose could be the man to succeed Klopp when the German departs, and plenty more.

Liverpool may have first made a move for Norwich City’s Jamal Lewis – but Kostas Tsimikas is the ‘perfect candidate’ to provide cover and competition for Andy Robertson. That’s according to Josh Williams and David Hughes, who dig deep into the stats to look at why Norwich’s decision to turn down a big-money bid for Lewis may actually prove to be a blessing in disguise for Liverpool - unless it was their intention to always go for Tsimikas... After discussing an interesting theory, Josh and Dave look at the type of left-back the Reds are getting and explain why, unlike a number of Jurgen Klopp signings, the Greece international could fit in straightaway at Anfield.
