Blood Red: Joel Matip's latest injury setback leaves Liverpool with clear January transfer need

Liverpool were left frustrated by Sam Allardyce's West Brom on Sunday and are also waiting to determine the extent of Joel Matip's adductor injury. Joining host Guy Clarke are Ian Doyle, Sean Bradbury and Matt Addison for the latest Blood Red podcast to talk about what Liverpool must do in January regardless of how long Matip's latest injury issue keeps him out for. With Fabinho, Rhys Williams and Nat Phillips the only central defenders currently fit for Jurgen Klopp, Michael Edwards and Co have a big decision to make in the transfer market next month, or risk jeopardising the good position the Reds find themselves in. The panel also discuss the unfair criticism levelled at 19-year-old midfielder Curtis Jones, plus Liverpool's ability to break down low-lying defensive teams, before they pick their starting XIs for Newcastle United on Wednesday, and predict the result of that game.
