Summary

We recorded the latest edition of the View from the Kop Liverpool FC fans' podcast on Tuesday alongside our special guest, singer-songwriter, and Reds supporter, Ben Burke, to help promote his brilliant new single, ‘The Life I Left Behind’. And then Friday happened... Paul Wheelock and Paul Philbin felt we couldn't put the podcast out without mentioning the signings of Thiago Alcantara and Diogo Jota. So they had a quick catch-up on Saturday afternoon while Philbo was having a pint on a sunny Penny Lane. You'll hear that chat first - and then the main podcast with Ben, who also reflects on the 'mind-blowing' fan park gig before the Champions League final in Madrid last year.The Liverpool Echo sends a twice-daily Liverpool FC bulletin out via email with the all latest news, views and analysis from Anfield.
