Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast

Latest Episodes:

Analysing Anfield: Salah, Mane and why Liverpool should not sleep on another forward as Chelsea spend big Jul 21, 2020

Show notes

It’s the final Analysing Anfield preview podcast of the 2019-20 season but before Josh Williams and David Hughes get stuck into the games against Chelsea and Newcastle United, they look at just how newly crowned champions Liverpool somehow managed to lose at Arsenal. That then leads into a discussion about Mohamed Salah who, with a third successive Golden Boot potentially up for grabs, seems to be shooting from anywhere more than ever, and the difference between the Egyptian and his strike-partner Sadio Mane. Did the defeat at Arsenal underline the need for another forward option off the bench? Josh and Dave talk that before moving on to Chelsea, tomorrow's visitors to Anfield, and a side who will have a plethora of attacking options next season given Kai Havertz could be joining Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech at Stamford Bridge, where veteran frontman Olivier Giroud is playing some of the best football of his career. But even with buying some of the best available offensive talent on the market, will Chelsea get close to Liverpool next season? The scouting writers try to answer that question before previewing the match with Frank Lampard’s side and Sunday’s trip to a Newcastle United team who, looking at the underlying numbers, should be in relegation trouble. Enjoy.

Billy Beane EXCLUSIVE: The Moneyball man who inspired FSG, Michael Edwards and Liverpool FC's transfer genius Jul 19, 2020

Show notes

Matt Addison speaks to Moneyball pionner Billy Beane, the man who inspired Liverpool's transfer recruitment strategy with his work with the Oakland Athletics baseball team, for an exclusive podcast. Beane is baseball's version of Liverpool sporting director Michael Edwards, and was the first to put data, analytics and science into gaining marginal advantages in the transfer market – something the Reds have pretty much perfected in recent years. Beane is the man that Liverpool have looked to follow, so he is the perfect person to shed light on an area that the club try to keep secret. Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Andy Robertson are just three examples of how the Reds have used Beane's technique to unearth undervalued gems, and he gives Blood Red a fascinating insight about how the process works. The 58-year-old, who was played by Brad Pitt in the film Moneyball, is a close personal friend of Liverpool owner John W Henry and FSG chairman Tom Werner, while he also knows the club’s ex-sporting director Damien Comolli. Beane provides insight into all three of them, plus current sporting director Edwards, in a rare behind-the-scenes look into FSG and how the Americans, who also own the Boston Red Sox, operate. Enjoy.
