Manchester City 3 Liverpool 0 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/11/09

A miserable afternoon at the Etihad as the Reds failed to build on the impressive midweek win against Real Madrid and instead produced arguably their worst display of the season. Defensively weak, insipid in attack and not helped by Michael Oliver doing Michael Oliver things on VAR, it was a depressing way to go into the international break and there's still lots of work to be done to turn this around. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Paul Natton and Dan Thomas to try and make sense of another

Liverpool 1 Real Madrid 0 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/11/05

Alexis Mac Allister's second half header finally broke the resistance of Thibault Courtois and secured an impressive win for the Reds in what was clearly their best performance of the season so far. Chris Smith is joined by TLW Editor Dave Usher and Julian Richards to bask in the glow of a memorable night at Anfield in which Conor Bradley gave Vinicius Jr the Mbappe treatment, the midfield trio dominated and Florian Wirtz impressed on the left of the front three.

Liverpool 2 Aston Villa 0 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/11/02

A much improved defensive showing laid the platform for a much needed win over Aston Villa at Anfield that ended a run of four straight league defeats and took the Reds back up into the top three. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by John Gallagher and Terry McDonald to discuss a decent night's work at Anfield in which some key players returned to form just in time for a big week ahead.

Liverpool 0 Crystal Palace 3 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/10/30

The Reds miserable run continued as Kryptonite Palace once again did their thing. A much weakened Liverpool line up never stood a chance against the FA Cup holders and the mix of bench players and kids were predictably and ruthlessly exposed by Oliver Glasner's side.We let Arne Slot select our line up for this pod so everyone has the night off and some random kids have been thrown in at the deep end. Not really, we wouldn't do that to our listeners. Chris Smith and Dave Usher break down this

Brentford 3 Liverpool 2- Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/10/26

Another weekend another defeat. Four in a row now as the Reds are in complete freefall. A poor performance saw Arne Slot's side twice trail Brentford by two goals and although Mo Salah struck late on, it proved to be no more than a consolation goal on the latest miserable trip to London.TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Ian Brown and Stu Montagu to talk through a number of big topics from tactics to mentality to Andy Robertson's comments about the lack of fight being shown.

Eintracht Frankfurt 1 Liverpool 5 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/10/23

Liverpool 1 Manchester United 2 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/10/20

A fourth defeat on the spin as once again the Reds got back into a game they were losing only to then throw it away at the death, this time allowing Harry fucking Maguire to win it for United. The dust has settled and we recorded this over 24 hours after the game, in truth because none of us wanted to relive it on Sunday night. TLW Editor Dave Usher hosts this one and is joined by John Gallagher and Julian Richards.

109:30

Chelsea 2 Liverpool 1 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/10/04

Another last gasp winner conceded to round off a miserable seven days in which the Reds have been beaten three times. Cody Gakpo's equaliser looked like it would be the platform for yet another late comeback, but just like last week at Palace it was Arne Slot's men on the receiving end of the late drama.TLW Editor Dave Usher was joined by Ian Brown and Paul Natton shortly after the final whistle to pick through the bones of this one and try to figure out just what the hell is going on with these

Galatasaray 1 Liverpool 0 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/09/30

A miserable performance in Turkey saw the Reds slip to a second consecutive defeat as a ridiculous penalty awarded by an overly fussy referee proved to be the difference on a night when neither side produced anything of note. TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Julian Richards and Stu Montagu to pick through the bones of a hugely disappointing display against what was clearly a very poor opponent.

79:11

Crystal Palace 2 Liverpool 1 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/09/28

Liverpool suffered their first defeat of the season at Crystal Palace, as the Eagles struck in the 9yth minute to give the reds a taste of our own medicine.It had required a brilliant performance from Alisson to keep Arne Slot’s off-the-pace side just one down at the break, but a much improved second period saw Federico Chiesa bring the Reds level. A sloppy end to the game meant Liverpool surrendered a share of the points. Chris Smith is joined by TLW Editor Dave Usher to discuss what went wrong

Liverpool 2 Southampton 1 - League Cup Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/09/24

Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike were both on target as the Reds booked their place in the next round of the competition despite a below par showing against the Saints. Chris Smith is joined by Stu Montagu and TLW Editor Dave Usher to discuss a game with a surprising amount of talking points. A top performance from Federico Chiesa, an assured debut from Giovanni Leoni that was sadly marred by what looks like a serious injury, a first Liverpool goal for Isak and arguably the stupidest sending off in

Liverpool 2 Everton 1 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/09/20

Five wins from five in the league and we didn't even need a late winner this time. Goals from Gravenberch and Ekitike capped a brilliant first half for the Reds and although the second half failed to live up to those standards, it's another win to keep the 100% start to the season going.TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by John Gallagher and Paul Natton to reflect on a mixed afternoon at Anfield but ultimately a satisfying one.

Liverpool 3 Atletico Madrid 2 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/09/18

This one didn't ever feel in any doubt, we all knew what was coming and the skipper delivered it. Chris Smith is joined by TLW Editor Dave Usher to look back on another dramatic night at Anfield in which Alexander Isak made an exciting debut, Florian Wirtz produced his best performance of the season and Arne Slot's side made it five wins from five thanks to

Burnley 0 Liverpool 1 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/09/15

The Reds left it late yet again as a Mo Salah penalty deep into stoppage time finally broke Burnley's resistance and maintained the Champions 100% start to the new season.

Transfer Window Recap featuring Chris Bascombe

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

Liverpool 1 Arsenal 0 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

Newcastle 2 Liverpool 3 - Match Reaction

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·

2025/08/26

It wasn't pretty, it wasn't impressive, but it was hilarious. Newcastle had been whipping themselves into a frenzy about this game for weeks, and ultimately that proved their undoing as the emotion got the better of them and they were sunk by a 16 year old 10 minutes into stoppage time.TLW Editor Dave Usher is joined by Dan Thomas to take a look back at the good (Rio), the bad (Konate) and the ugly (Joelinton) from a wild night at St James' Park.

Reds lose Community Shield on Penalties

The Liverpool Way Podcast ·
