Podcast: LiVARpool are back – Crystal Palace win, AFCON, Jota, League Cup final and more! 

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson Crystal Palace Selhurst Park Premier League

Well, despite all the noise about how Liverpool would struggle during the AFCON period, the Reds have done alright haven’t they?

Another win, another three points and Luke and James are here to talk all about it! While it was a tricky match away at Selhurst Park, we discussed how vital the victory was over Crystal Palace as well as highlighting those players who have stepped up in recent weeks due to the absence of Salah and Mane.

This includes Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Diogo Jota who came in for high praise from the lads. Plus, we discussed how integral Liverpool’s fullbacks are to the Reds’ system, and if losing them would be more detrimental than the front three.

Then, we turned our attention to next month’s League Cup final against Chelsea. We mused over Klopp’s decision to opt for Caoimhin Kelleher in goal and whether, despite his impressive performances, it’s an unnecessary risk.

Finally, we chatted about what it would be like to win our first domestic cup in a decade, and how it could provide a boost going into the final half of the season.
