Liverpool have given their supporters the perfect Christmas present by opening up a four-point lead at the top of the Premier League.
But last’s year gift came two days after the big day when Virgil van Dijk’s protracted move from Southampton was completed for a £75m fee that remains a world record for a defender.
It’s safe to say that it’s been money well spent.
And such is the impact van Dijk has made at Anfield, we have produced a Christmas Day special podcast that is all about the imperious Dutchman, and which could be perfect listening while you’re cooking the turkey or when you’ve got your feet up later in the day after you’ve polished it off.
The podcast starts with a three-way discussion between our Blood Red regulars Joe Rimmer, Ian Doyle and Paul Gorst, before Paul Wheelock talks to former Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa and Leicester City midfielder Garry Parker, who was part of the Celtic coaching staff who first brought van Dijk to Britain from Holland.
We also hear from a Southampton writer, who is not surprised in the slightest at just how well the 27-year-old has done for the Reds.
Enjoy – and from everyone at the Blood Red podcasts, we hope you’re having, or have had, a good day. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
