With Liverpool playing on Friday night, we've brought our Blood Red podcast forward a day, which means there's no place in the starting line-up for our Reds reporter James Pearce, who is busy enjoying himself at the first day of the Grand National.
However, we still have Ian Doyle, Paul Gorst, Sean Bradbury and Caoimhe O'Neill to discuss the latest big Liverpool talking points, including Jurgen Klopp's pre-Southampton press conference where the Reds boss confirmed that Virgil van Dijk is fit and that he has every faith in Mohamed Salah .
The panel discuss both topics along with Klopp's words on the performance of the Anfield crowd in the win over Tottenham, which moved his side back top until Manchester City swept aside Cardiff.
Liverpool lose top spot to Man City - but Pep Guardiola's side suffer blow in Cardiff City win
Pep Guardiola's men are moving serenely along but are they ready for what's about to hit them?
Our writers debate that, as well as the staggering amount Liverpool have paid agents and the future of Rhian Brewster , before talk turns to the match with Southampton, which brings about some very interesting team selections.
Enjoy.
