Summary

Regular host and Liverpool reporter Ian Doyle is joined by full-time Liverpool correspondent – both home and away – James Pearce and ECHO sportsdesk colleague Kristian Walsh for the first of this week’s pre-Champions League final Blood Red podcasts.Ian and James are fresh back from Anfield where they had attended the club’s media day – and both are struck by just how relaxed the Reds are in the lead up to Kiev.And who is responsible for that? Well, that’d be the same man that has re-established the key bond between the supporters and the players... Jurgen Klopp.Ian, James and Kristian also pay tribute to the players themselves, all of who have been written off at some stage of their careers, but who now stand on the brink of winning the club’s sixth European Cup.Liverpool, of course, are no strangers to this stage of this competition, but Ian argues the Kiev showdown is the biggest game in the club’s history.James and Kristian do not disagree, and the trio are also on the same page when it comes to the argument that holders Real Madrid are the team with it all to lose on Saturday night.It’s essential listening as ever.
