Welcome to the final Blood Red podcast. From America. Whereas last year's tour of the US went swimmingly, 12 months on things did not quite go to plan for Liverpool, if not off the pitch, then certainly on it. Fittingly, then, our final dispatch from Stateside goes a little awry. It starts with Ian Doyle and Kristian Walsh looking back on the 2-2 draw with Sporting Lisbon at the Yankee Stadium before the duo are joined halfway through the podcast by Goal's Neil Jones to pick out the Reds' winners and losers from the three matches played in America. But before they can finish that section, the reporters are interrupted by an employee from the hotel they were staying at in New York and have now left. We've kept it in for posterity. And what also made the cut are the concerns the trio have 10 days before the Community Shield with Manchester City and why next week is so important for Jurgen Klopp. Enjoy.
