On the latest Molby On The Spot, Trev Downey and Jan Molby engage in a wide-ranging Reds-related chat. From the impact of Jürgen Klopp over his four years at Liverpool to the unique skill set of Sadio Mané, and from the media-stoked penalty controversy, to the contest between press duties past and present, Jan is on great form, with insight aplenty. There’s also some chat on the current Mancunian misery and an absolute belter of a story about Carlton Palmer, autographs and a red card. A cracking episode.
In this episode, Allen & Andrew will talk about the psychology that goes along with LFC’s current 8 point lead in the table and what it takes to maintain current form while holding a lead. We’ll also discuss some of the other clubs and the mental aspects of their current situations.
Danie lRhodes hosts Lee Scott and Hamzah Khalique-Loonat for a double header looking at the two victories over the past week, topics include:Salzburg:Line-ups for both sides, any surprises?Quick combinations and switches of the play in the first halfSalzburg’s pressing was poor, too many gaps behind the initial press leaving space for Liverpool to exploitGoing through the first three goals, and the tactical elements involvedTheir counterattacks gained more quality after Jesse Marsch switched to a 4-3-1-2 diamond shape after thirty minutes Minamino now played as a number ten behind the strikers Klopp brought on Divock Origi and changed to a 4-2-3-1 formation.

It's a very big week for the Reds, as the results fell, and we go a little giddy! While the rhetoric was that Liverpool was lucky (or cheaty) we put the arguments to the cold light of day to see if they stick. Ratings wise, Kay, Guy and Tadiwa talk about:
- Milly MOTM
- Mane's brilliance
- Adam and Andy go off!
On the latest RAW, Trev Downey, Hari Sethi and Karl Matchett reflect on a dominant Liverpool performance which will see them go into the international fortnight at least 5 points clear of their nearest rivals on the back of a 2-1 home win over Brendan Rodgers’ Leicester City. On a dramatic afternoon, Leicester provided a stern defensive barrier, which Jürgen Klopp’s wasteful Reds breached with regularity, whilst conceding only a solitary (and successful) shot on goal over the 90. As ever, the performances and key moments are analyzed and there is appropriate reveling in the injury time VAR-checked penalty by James Milner. Lovely stuff.
GD is GT-less this week as Gags is busy so Guy is joined by Eddie Gibbs to go through Klopp's press conference from this afternoon ahead of this weekends game against Leicester. They go through a variety of topics as Klopp was asked about Brendan coming back to Anfield for the first time, Leicester breaking into the top four, and a quite strong response to a certain Salzburg video. They also give some stats, their lineups and predictions for the game.
On this week’s edition of Rival Recon, Hari Sethi welcomes on lifelong Foxes fan Jim Knight to discuss Saturday’s clash with Leicester as Brendan Rodgers returns to Anfield.
- Rodgers returns to Anfield
- Rodgers’ impact on Leicester’s young talents
- Can Leicester finish Top Four
