Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast Gerard Houllier's Liverpool legacy
Sep 6, 2016
39:39
This week Neil Jones, James Pearce and Joe Rimmer are joined by author Simon Hughes, who discusses his new book 'Ring of Fire: Liverpool into the 21st century - the players' stories'
Simon offers his insight into the book's interviewees, in particular Gerard Houllier, whose Anfield legacy is discussed at length. The Frenchman is the most successful Liverpool manager of the last 25 years, but is he remembered as fondly as he perhaps should be?
Also discussed are Michael Owen and Fernando Torres, idolised for a spell before leaving under clouds. Time to forgive and forget, or is that too idealistic a viewpoint?
Well worth a listen, this one. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
