Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast The summer signing Liverpool dodged a bullet with - and the dressing room problems that could help the Reds

As disappointing as the defeat to Red Star in midweek was for Liverpool, it still has to be placed into context.
After all, their Champions League destiny remains in their own hands, and should they win at home to Fulham on Sunday they would go back to the top of the Premier League, for a couple of hours at least.
But positives are hard to come by for this weekend’s visitors Fulham.
Last season’s Championship play-off winners are rock bottom after losing their last five league matches and, with many of their summer signings failing to perform, the pressure is building on manager Slavisa Jokanovic.
So to get the inside track on the Cottagers for this Preview podcast, we speak to Ryan O’Donovan, who covers the club for the Football.London website.
Ryan explains why the wheels have fallen off after a promising start, why Jokanovic should be safe whatever happens on Sunday, and why Liverpool appear to have dodged a bullet when it comes to the player who made a surprise switch to Craven Cottage in the summer.
The second part of this podcast focuses on the Reds.
We catch up with the ECHO’s Paul Gorst, who talks the fallout from the Red Star defeat, why Xherdan Shaqiri and Naby Keita should start on Sunday, and why the game should give Jurgen Klopp’s side the chance to close the gap on Manchester City in more ways than one.
We’ll be back after the after whistle with our Post-Game podcast.
