This is the Analyzing Anfield Podcast on the Blood Red Channel, bringing you the best tactical and statistical analysis of Liverpool FC.

Hello everybody and welcome to this week's episode and analyse and I feel your tactics and

analytics podcast courtesy of the bloodbed channel.

I'm Josh Williams and I'm rejoined by my co-host David Hughes Dave.

We have a turn into normality mates.

I'm sure you enjoyed getting away from it for a while, but we are now back to football.

You're looking forward to the season. I am, mate, I've picked a good time to be getting back early.

You know, we can finally start talking about football matches again.

And yeah, you know, I'll be honest, I was really looking forward to doing the

podcast as well. Obviously it's been a few weeks for me. I can hear the booze in the

distance when people realize it's me back and not Guy Clark I do apologize but yeah you know we're just

really looking for as the starts of the season and talking up football today on the

podcast. Yeah to be honest we've had a little bit of a Liverpool centre about crisis on the show to be honest,

about rotating partners every week. But yeah, good to return to normality, good to talk about

actual football matches coming up that matter.

So that's what we'll be doing today.

Today will be preview in Nod City to Liverpool's first opponents for the first game of the season.

But before that we are going to just have a general chat about the league, just league expectations

specifically for Liverpool.

Maybe a quick run through of Man Dave's picks in terms of like top four and relegation and things like that so

We'll see where we go with it usual analyze and I'm field fashion

But in terms of Liverpool and Dave obviously pretty seasons now finished.
