Description

A true Liverpool FC legend this week makes his return to the city.Kevin Keegan will be at Waterstones on Wednesday afternoon to promote his brilliant new autobiography, My Life in Football.The book was written with Daniel Taylor, the chief football writer for The Guardian and The Observer newspapers, and the Sports Journalists’ Association Football Journalist of the Year for the past three years.And for our latest Blood Red spin-off podcast, Paul Wheelock picked up the phone to Daniel before he met up with Kevin for the latest leg of the book signing tour.So much of the focus on the book has surrounded the explosive revelations regarding Kevin’s second spell in charge of Newcastle.But as Daniel explains, there is much more to his story, not least the six years at Liverpool that transformed his career and life, and the importance of the manager who signed him, the one and only Bill Shankly.Kevin said recently that Jurgen Klopp is the modern manager he would like to play under most, and in this podcast Daniel talks the similarities between the two, as well as Liverpool’s performance at Chelsea at the weekend, the contrasting moods at Anfield and Old Trafford, why it would be an incredible achievement for the Reds to win the Premier League this season, and about Rhian Brewster, who sat down with Daniel late last year to talk about the racist abuse he has received in his young and highly promising career.
