Kostas Tsimikas SPECIAL: Stelios Giannakopoulos on Liverpool's 'Greek Scouser' - and how close ex-Bolton winger came to joining Rafa's Reds Sep 30, 2021

Show notes

Top of the Premier League, top of their Champions League group, and through to the last 16 of the Carabao Cup, it’s been close to a perfect start to the season for Liverpool, going into their huge match with Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday. And it has been a squad effort, with Jurgen Klopp having used 26 players in Liverpool’s unbeaten nine-game run to start the campaign. And one player who has certainly taken his chance to shine is Kostas Tsimikas, who is already well on his way to surpassing the seven appearances he made in his debut season at Anfield. The Greece international has been excellent in the four starts he has made so far this season, proving to be a more than able deputy to Andy Robertson. So, to find out a little more about Tsimikas, the Liverpool ECHO’s Theo Squires picked up the phone to former Bolton Wanderers winger, Euro 2004 winner, and ex-Greece assistant-manager, Stelios Giannakopoulos, who also explains how close he came to becoming the first Greek player to play for Liverpool.

Behind Enemy Lines: Porto | Grujic reunion, the Liverpool-linked Otavio and Vieira, and the 'phenomenal' signing Everton missed out on Sep 26, 2021

Show notes

Liverpool have quickly got to put the frustration of dropping two points in the Premier League on Saturday behind them because on Tuesday they travel to Porto for their second match in Group B of the Champions League. The Reds got off to the perfect start when they beat AC Milan 3-2 at Anfield two weeks ago. And they’ll be confident of making it six points from six given they’ve had Porto’s number in recent years. However, the Portuguese side did earn an excellent 0-0 draw at Atletico Madrid on matchday one, and like Liverpool, they’ve made an unbeaten start to the season. So to learn more about Porto, Paul Wheelock picks up the phone to Portuguese football expert Alex Goncalves (follow him on Twitter @Aljeeves). They talk Diogo Jota, who will be facing his former club on Tuesday, as well as Marko Grujic, who will be doing the same, plus two midfielders Liverpool were linked with in the summer, and the star forward who came close to joining Everton.
