0:25.1	Hello and welcome to this week's Liverpool.com podcast, myself, Matt Addison, Michael Plant,
0:29.7	with me as well. We're going to get stuck into some Champions League football this week as

1:33.3	obviously the two biggest priorities for Liverpool. Look, I think given the scarcity of league
1:39.7	titles over the last couple of decades, I suspect Liverpool fans will still probably see
