Episode 52: The Motley Crew

The Anfield Index Podcast is back but this time with Gags Tandon as host and he's got more of a global feel to the podcast. Joining him this week are Kaylon from AI Podcast South Africa, Leroy from the Malaysian AI Podcast, Srikanth from the Indian AI Podcast and Jason from AI Podcast USA.

The guys talk about the Stoke game, the relief of finally achieving 3 points. The tactics of the game employed by Rodgers, the defence, Glen Johnson, Kolo Toure and they discuss what's lacking in attack.

Pressing Actions return with some interesting results!

The focus then turns to relationships on the field and what's lacking all over the pitch - and has Rodgers made the recent changes because of the lack of relationships built in the team?

All this and more it's the Anfield Index Podcast!

TTT Tactics Podcast: Have we Bought Square Pegs?

Hosted by: Bob Pearce with regular guests Daniel Rhodes and Mihail Vladimirov.

Discussion Points:

Why the central defence struggles: a lack of protection in front and behind them, leaving them in a constant sense of positional limbo. The attacking limitations of Moreno and Manquillo. The lack of coaching time available to Rodgers. Lallana needs a free role. And finally... a brilliant story from Mihail about three generations supporting Liverpool in communist Bulgaria. It is worth the wait!
