On this episode of Molby On The Spot, Trev Downey and Reds legend Jan Molby reflect on the carnage wrought by the international fortnight and look ahead to a punishing schedule for Jürgen Klopp’s men, focusing specifically on the Leicester game. There’s also chat about Guardiola and Messi, the merits of Brendan Rodgers as a coach and Mo Salah’s much discussed ‘misdemeanour.’ As ever, it’s not to be missed. Listen up.

Dave & Karl are back to look across Europe and how clubs have started in the big leagues. How are the teams at the top of the leagues going to fair going forward? Which big teams in Spain can improve? Anyone touch Bayern or PSG in those leagues? How is Pirlo settling in at Juve?
Jim Boardman is joined by Gags Tandon as they grab with both hands the chance to talk once more about last season after getting a sneak preview of the soon-to-be released Liverpool documentary “The End of the Storm”. The feature-length film charts the journey to the end of that 30 year wait for LFC and features exclusive interviews not only with the likes of Klopp, King Kenny, Hendo, Ali, Sadio and Virgil, but also members of the club’s worldwide fanbase, including one of the Wuhan Reds. But did a movie filled with insight into that historic season win Gags and Jim over?
On this episode of Money Talks, Mo is joined by Eddie Gibbs to chew the cud over a variety of topical issues including: whether the club can afford to sign a centre-back (or two) in January, how this season's finances are likely to shape up, the latest on the FSG-Red Ball merger, an update on new sponsorship deals, the Annie Rd End expansion's delay and how any deal for Mbappe could be financed. As always, a full-on agenda but definitely worth a listen.
Jim Boardman is once again joined by Jan Gorski-Mescir as they continue the discussion of Jan’s time as a Liverpool fan, including his move away from the city and his support from further afield. Also, Jan gets an opportunity for the somewhat tricky task of choosing his all-time LFC XI, in his case made extra difficult by having more years as a match-watching Red to choose players from!
Jim Boardman is joined by Jan Gorski-Mescir for another of the special “back stories” episodes. In the first of two parts, Jan explains what it was that turned him into a Liverpool fan and it is arguably the most unique, definitely the most moving, of all the stories we’ve shared so far. Once he had become a Red, what was it about Anfield that kept him going back, and what was it like to be on the Kop in the era the nation, indeed the world, found out how special it was?
Simon & Marty go through the Joe Gomez injury, and answer questions on the severity of it. They discuss how long he'll likely be out for, what this means for CB options in the squad, and what needs to be done in January.
Gags and Dave are back to discuss the distressing news that Joe Gomez is out for the season.
They discuss the injury, the status of Liverpool's defence and squad.
The players Liverpool could target in January to replace Joe Gomez and why Liverpool now need two centre-backs and not one.
They then look ahead to the fixtures coming up and give some predictions up to the end of the year.
