In the latest episode of The Kop Curiosities podcast, Lola Katz Roberts & Lewis Aspinall bring you all the latest Liverpool FC transfer news, fan debate on Rio, the Iraola appointment, and 5 transfers in and out they would both make this summer!
Liverpool have unveiled Andoni Iraola as their new manager, ushering in a thrilling new era at Anfield. The Basque tactician has promised a reign defined by high intensity, rigid organisation, and a deep understanding that football is fundamentally fuelled by emotion and collective joy.
To break down exactly what this means for the Reds, Hari is joined by friend of the pod: Jon Mackenzie from The Athletic. Having closely tracked Iraola’s managerial journey since his Rayo Vallecano days in 2020, Jon brings tremendous insight into how Liverpool’s new boss fits into the modern tactical landscape.
The pair dive deep into Iraola's philosophy and discuss how the modern game continues to evolve under the shadow of Klopp & Pep Guardiola the central figure in Jon’s highly anticipated upcoming book, The Spectre of Pep: How Guardiola Haunts Modern Football Tactics (available for pre-order now!)
