Allez Les Rouges: The emphasis shift key to Liverpool's title chances – and Everton's Merseyside derby dilemma

Fancy some pre-Merseyside derby Liverpool FC listening?Well, you’re in luck as Peter Hooton returns with his brilliant Allez Les Rouges podcast.For this latest must-listen episode Peter is joined by Steph Jones, an Anfield season-ticket holder and writer, author and journalist Simon Hughes, and Accrington Stanley’s miracle-working manager John Coleman.But before they get stuck into Sunday’s huge Goodison Park clash with Everton, they look back on the 5-0 midweek win over Watford and the big reasons for it, including a fired-up Trent Alexander-Arnold and a new position for Sadio Mane.The panel also examine why the performance was so different to the previous midweek league matches versus Leicester City and West Ham United and wonder whether the Reds can repeat it.Simon gives an interesting tale from the mixed zone while John says the reason for Divock Origi’s re-emergence could be down to the fact that he’s been given a ‘new toy’.Talk then turns to the derby and whether Everton have got the players to park the bus like Manchester United did at Old Trafford last weekend – and, if they haven’t, why that could play straight into Liverpool’s hands.There’s also Brendan Rodgers chat, too.Enjoy.
