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

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Liverpool. dot com podcast on the Blood Red channel.

I'm your host James Martin and I'm joined today

by Matt Addison Liverpool.com editor.

Matt, how are you doing?

Yeah, all good.

Just about recorded from the disappointmentments I think of the weekend.

I'm sure that will linger a little bit longer with it being the international break.

But hopefully today's conversation can move that a little bit further forward and we can have a

chat about the future because there's still a lot for Liverpool to play for this

this season still two trophies up for grabs and still plenty of exciting things for us to get into.

So I think immediately after the game on Sunday I thought it was was more of a bad thing than a good thing.

It felt like one of those where you just wanted to play another game as soon as possible if the

the couple could have got you know a Wednesday game after that Sunday to just get it out of the

system as we've seen you know a few times this season they've had you know quick

turnarounds there's not been too many disappointments but when that has been the

case you know for for that to sort of quickly be got out of your system I think

is it is pretty you know pretty important really for

Liverpool but equally the more you look at it that sort of injury list that has

been there for you know as long as as long as the season has been really it's it's been sort of

eight to ten or sometimes even more players over the last few weeks that Liverpool

have had out so it's not been particularly easy for them to be able to deal with that.
