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

It's just in a very general sense, you must be encouraged by the obviously the result in the

performance and the confidence that can give you from the Leipzig game going

into this one on Monday. Yes of course What we have to show now is kind of consistency obviously to the

consistency in a performance way, in a defending way and then obviously where we are we have one foot in a game already if we can do that and then if we can build on that then we have a chance to win a football game and that's what we obviously

what's the target for the next game.

I know you were pleased with the defending in particular the other night and I know it's only a couple of games for

Caback and Phillips together, but it was another clean sheet too for them now. How encouraging is that and how much confidence can that give them?

Oh, a lot, but it's about the general defendant.

It is.

So if you, as a center half, we can pick up the right challenges, if we can pick up the right challenges and can pick up the right

balls because the balls are forced or kind of defended already from the players in front of you, then makes life, makes it life completely much more easy.

And that's how football should be actually.

So in the end you speak about a center half, which is good in a positive way, which is good as well. But it was about a centa half which is good in a positive way which is good as well but it was

about a general defending a day and that helped the two voices a lot.

And you go to wolves now I don't know whether you've got a little bit of sympathy with

no wolves given the

the injury particularly to to Raul him in a since November really and you've got

obviously experience of of how hard it can be to lose players of that quality in any side.

Absolutely. Anyway, I have a lot of sympathy for what Nune is doing because it's doing an incredible job and this is just a strange year and you cannot replace one to one a player with the quality of

our criminals. So that's clear, but they did quite well.

They maybe don't play.
