Former Liverpool defender Stephen Wright is the special guest on our latest Verdict podcast.We recorded a podcast with the Academy graduate earlier this summer looking back on his career.But our latest catch-up, at Wrexham AFC’s Racecourse Ground, was all about the current Reds crop and reviewing their season so far.Along with Liverpool’s summer spending, it’s a start that seems to have got under Jose Mourinho’s skin, but Wright has been delighted by the way that Jurgen Klopp has responded to the Manchester United manager’s barbs.He also discusses those comments from Neymar ahead of Paris Saint-Germain’s visit to Anfield on Tuesday week and reveals whether words of opposition players and managers are really stuck up on the dressing room wall.Wright called for the Reds to buy a goalkeeper after Loris Karius’ Champions League final mistakes and, while Alisson Becker made an error of his own at Leicester City on Saturday, he feels the Brazilian has already removed doubts in the fan base and, crucially, in his team-mates, too.Talk then talks to the fearsome front three of Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, and Wright gives an insight into what it was like playing alongside another great attacking Liverpool trio, Robbie Fowler, Michael Owen and Emile Heskey in the treble-winning 2000-01 season, which in turn leads to an interesting discussion about the revelation Owen recently made on BT Sport.Wright has no doubt Klopp’s squad is much stronger than it was last season and that’s why he believes Liverpool should also have a crack at the Carabao Cup.But the final part of the podcast is dedicated to the Reds’ chances of winning the Premier League and the Champions League, given what we have seen so far and given what lies ahead.Enjoy.
