This is the Blood Red podcast from the Liverpool Echo, giving you the inside track on all the big talking points from Anfield.

Hello and welcome to this week's Liverpool.com podcast. I'm your host, Matt Addison. Richard Garner is alongside me.

We're going to have a chat about a few things Liverpool related after a couple of tricky games for Liverpool
