Paul, Lubo and Matt are back to check in on the results and events of recent weeks in Liverpool’s season. They discuss their frustrations with the refereeing in the Premier League and if there is a possibility for change. The guys then look at the positive aspects of the performances and what is to come from what should be a less difficult stretch of games.

On the second bonus Transfer Podcast of the international break, Trev Downey and Dave Davis have a wide-ranging conversation around personnel at LFC. The lads begin with a chat about the absence of Curtis Jones and which player might take advantage of that to stake a claim. This inevitably leads to a debate about the best midfield formation based on current options and, even more inevitably, it also leads to a discussion about who and what profile of player the Reds need to recruit in January. There is a discussion about the block of fixtures before and after the next international break not only in relation to the make-up of the midfield but also the defence, in the wake of the huge blow of losing Andy Robertson. Again, the lads ponder what Jürgen may do in the absence of the Scot and there's a shout both agree upon which will likely raise a few eyebrows. Finally, the focus of conversation shifts to the rumours surrounding Max Eberl and Liverpool's intention to rival Bayern Munich as suitors for his services, before the pod ends with some talk of Dynasty Media's investment and what, if anything, it might mean for the club and its owners.

Dave Davis is joined by David Lynch to discuss: - The Season So Far - The Standouts - The Upcoming Fixtures Through to City - Midfield and Attacking Options - Off the Field Matters: Dyansty, Sporting Director and January - Faith in Tsimikas to Cover Robbo

On today's episode Dave looks at how Liverpool players in the Premier League era compare to the other big six teams. He also looks at some games that Klopp would want to replay in his Liverpool tenure. 

Dave & Karl are back to make some XIs from some of the most prominent nations that have graced England's top league. They go through the greats of Brazil with current and ex-reds taking some prominent spots! France have some of the greatest Premier League players of all time to contend with each other, Spain and Netherlands are the other nations to have teams created littered with all time greats. Who would make your teams? Did the lads miss anyone?

Dave discusses the injury picked up by Andy Robertson yesterday, as the Scotland captain seemingly dislocated his shoulder. He then looks at Virgil Van Dijk as our new skippers level as a player has been questioned recently. He looks at Virgil's comparison to all time greats, and the comparison to the new crop of CB's who are perhaps being overrated. 

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back for another episode of Scouser Tommies, in the week that Liverpool admitted they'd sold tickets for seats that don't exist, with the club admitting the Anfield Road upper tier won't even be ready this year, let alone in time for the derby. It was also the week that saw England’s football officials prove they aren’t just bad in Liverpool games, but of course ensuring they are still bad in Liverpool games. It's not all about stands and referees and there's plenty more Reds stuff up for discussion, even if the proper footy has dried up now thanks to the international break.

Dave looks though Liverpool news sites for subjects to discuss as the dreaded international break rumbles on! Dave talks about the the delay in the development of the Anfield Road Stand as the stand will continue at reduced capacity until 2024. There's also positives and negatives from the season so far. There are also fresh transfer rumours surrounding Andre, Dave looks at the Brazilian talent and whether he is actually a good fit for the no.6 position. 

On a bonus edition of The Transfer Show, Trev Downey and Dave Davis focus their attention on the success of Liverpool's summer signings. When the window closed and the club had signed four midfielders and no defenders the lads were skeptical about the lack of a ball-winning number six and some defensive cover on the left. Now, a few months have they changed their minds? Also, what areas (and what players) might be targeted in January? The second half of the show is dedicated to half term reports on each of the new boys - Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Gravenberch and Endo. The lads have a chat about each of the newest Reds and rate their contributions to date. As ever, a great chat with a few laughs, some analysis, a dose of speculation and plenty of opinion.

The whole crew are re-united for the double header against Union and Brighton. Darth hosts Rhodesy, Si and Barts and the lads discuss: Union SG Rotation and selection Match statistical summary Gravenberch and Quansah analyis Why Fulham were surprised we went for Elliott Brighton Lineups and detailed match stats. a 50/50 game?
