Summary

A brilliant man-manager and tactician. Razor-sharp recruitment. A club and fanbase very much as one. Sound familiar? Well, for Liverpool, also read their first visitors to Anfield of the New Year, Sheffield United. Now it would take a brave man to bet against Liverpool extending their incredible unbeaten Premier League home run to 51 matches this evening. But as is explained on this podcast, this is a Blades team that will arrive on Merseyside with no fear. And as is also explained, this is a Blades team that has real parallels with world champions Liverpool, both on and off the pitch. James Shield is the Sheffield United correspondent for the Sheffield Star and across the next 20 minutes or so, he offers a fascinating insight into Chris Wilder and the impressive Blades side he has constructed.
