Molby On The Spot kicks off 2018 with a review of the two quick fire 2-1 wins against Leicester and Burnley. Host Trev Downey chats to the star of the show, Reds legend Jan Molby, about Jürgen Klopp’s rotation policy, Emre Can’s presence in the midfield, the psychological boost of a last minute win, the trip to Ghana for Mané and Salah and the departure of Pepijn Lijnders to NEC Nijmegen. There’s even some discussion about the importance of celebration and the sartorial impact of turtlenecks. All this and more on Molby On The Spot!
On today’s show, Trev and Jan reflect on the arrival of The Reds’ late Christmas present - a lovely new ponytailed number 4 in the shape of Virgil Van Dijk. The Great Dane runs the rule over what he will add to the side, the influence he will have on Jürgen Klopp’s team and the impact his arrival may have on the short-term future for Liverpool in terms of success. There’s also lots of chat about the latest win over Swansea and a look forward to the upcoming matches. All this and more on Molby On The Spot!

On tonight’s festive edition of Molby On The Spot, a man-flu-addled Trev Downey talks to Jan Molby about the latest Reds’ victory over Bournemouth. As ever, The Great Dane’s analysis is insightful and full of wit but the lads don’t just limit themselves to the 4-0 win. There’s talk about African adventures, Mo Salah’s struggles with Scouse and how Roberto Firmino would’ve fitted right in at an 80s LFC Christmas party. There’s even a frankly scandalous musical admission from Jan, right at the death. Thank you to our subscribers for a brilliant season thus far on AIPro and all the best from Trev and Jan for the holiday season.

Trev Downey clasps his Mo Salah hot water bottle to his freezing Irish chest and gets into the weeds with Jan Molby, as the lads tackle the Champions League draw and the frankly insane holiday fixture congestion in a desperate attempt to avoid the main topic of the day - the disappointing derby against Everton. The match discussion takes in the controversial lineup, the equally controversial penalty and a tongue-in-cheek comparison of the merits of the two defences. As ever, The Great Dane is in fine form and Trev manages to stop his chattering teeth from ruining the podcast, so that’s nice.
In this episode of Molby On The Spot, Trev Downey and Jan Molby have the happy task of reflecting on two wins, eight goals and six points.

There’s chat about Jürgen Klopp’s capacity for winding up other managers, discussion on the general pointlessness of the Hollywood Ball and even some talk about Barcelona’s upcoming seasonal fundraising.

In this episode of Molby on the Spot, Trev Downey and Jan Molby discuss what was ultimately a disappointing point, as Liverpool were pegged back for the second time in a week. Jan runs the rule over the controversial selections by the manager and the lads try to work out the rationale behind them. The midfield gets some close scrutiny and Jan gives his expert view on the shortcomings of the players in that department. Jürgen reckons that he “can easily live with a point against Chelsea,” but the lads are not so sure. Are you? As always, there are some laughs along the way.
