Join Guy Clarke and Dan Kay for our latest instalment of Houllier’s Treble-Winners, our monthly podcast-series looking back on Liverpool’s incredible 2000-01 campaign. After almost six years of waiting, the Reds ended their trophy drought, 20 years ago this month, getting their hands on the Worthington Cup. So Guy and Dan reflect on the first leg of the historic treble, from Robbie Fowler’s role in Cardiff to the impact that the penalty shoot-out success over Birmingham City at the Millennium Stadium had on the careers of Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher. Plus, February 2001 was also the month the Reds booked their place in the UEFA Cup quarter-finals, seeing off would-be Italian champions AS Roma thanks to a Michael Owen brace in the Eternal City and a dramatic decision in the second leg at Anfield.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has given the latest update on the club’s injury list at his pre-match press conference to preview Sunday’s match with Sheffield United. Jordan Henderson has undergone surgery on the groin injury he sustained in the Merseyside derby while Diogo Jota has returned to training for the first time since injuring his knee against FC Midtjylland in the Champions League. Klopp talks about those two players, as well as the fitness of Fabinho and James Milner, who are set to return to training prior to the visit to Bramall Lane. The German also speaks about the atmosphere around the club, following the poor run of form, and gives his take on Chris Wilder’s position at Sheffield United.

With the causes for concern piling up for Liverpool, Neil Fitzmaurice is here with the latest Poetry in Motion podcast. From Roberto Firmino's drop in form to FSG's unwillingness to support Jurgen Klopp in the transfer market until deadline day, to why the goals have dried up, all bases are covered. The ECHO's Liverpool correspondent Paul Gorst and Sean Bradbury join Fitzy to get into the big LFC talking points, but begin by discussing the sad passing of goalkeeper Alisson Becker's father in Brazil, before moving onto the on-field issues, following defeat to Everton last time out. Looking ahead, the panel give their predictions for Sunday's visit to Sheffield United and discuss what else may lay ahead for the Reds.

Dan Morgan is joined by Liverpool.com colleague Joel Rabinowitz and Blood Red’s Matt Addison to present their roadmap for Liverpool to get out of their current crisis – and back to some kind of normality. Asking whether Jurgen Klopp needs to revert to set-ups he enjoyed success with in previous seasons, examining the role of Thiago Alcantara, and wondering whether Sadio Mane’s form is as concerning as Roberto Firmino’s... it’s a very interesting listen for all Reds fans.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

We need to talk about Roberto Firmino. The forward is not the only player who has been performing below-par of late for Liverpool, and is certainly not a scapegoat for their current predicament. But with his goals decreasing year on year and his overall play having regressed, what is the solution to the problem? Matt Addison and Kai Delaney take a look at Firmino's past, present and future, discussing the underlying numbers, the amount of games he has had to play this season, and how the return of Diogo Jota will help increase the Brazilian's capacity. Firmino is often described as being the entire 'system' for Liverpool, so getting him back to something like his best is vital. Long-term a new signing might be the answer, but short-term, that is not possible - and the Reds need Firmino firing if they are to make it back into the Champions League.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In the latest edition of the Analysing Anfield podcast Josh Williams and David Hughes look at what Jurgen Klopp can do to change Liverpool’s form – if he should be changing anything at all. The Reds’ struggles continued on Saturday as they lost the Merseyside derby to Everton 2-0. And after picking apart that painful defeat, Josh and David dig deep into the underlying numbers to ask if Klopp is doing the right thing by continuing to play the same system and the same players, although of course the Liverpool manager is not helped by injuries, particularly at the back. Formation and personnel changes are discussed before the must-listen podcast ends with a preview of the must-win match at Sheffield United.Watch and subscribe to our Blood Red videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BloodRedLiverpoolFCJoin our Blood Red podcast group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1656599847979758/ Learn more about your ad choices.

After Liverpool lost their Anfield record against Everton on Saturday, the Blood Red podcast is back to assess where Jurgen Klopp turns next. Diogo Jota is on the way back from injury but several other key men remain out - and Jordan Henderson has now been added to that list. So how can Liverpool turn things around, continue their progression in the Champions League, and make sure they finish inside the top four? Guy Clarke is joined by Ian Doyle, Theo Squires and Marcus Banks as they talk through the issues Liverpool are facing and which players might be able to offer some hope for the final three months of the season.
