The questions cover pressing stats correlating with results, Emre Can loss, do international breaks disrupt progress, thoughts on the Andy Massey interview and much, much more!
In this week’s Molby On The Spot, Trev Downey and Jan Molby cover a range of topics in the absence of a match to review. They speak about Liverpool medical chief Andy Massey’s comments about Klopp’s training regime, the setback suffered by Nathaniel Clyne, a couple of potential comings and goings in January, the importance of allowing players to happily travel with their international sides and how Michael Owen should really rein it in…or else he might fall off another horse.
In Part 1 of The Interview with Mark Lawrenson, host Trev Downey explores the early days of Mark’s football career, when his mother had hoped he might find a very different vocation. The legendary centre-half describes his signing by Bobby Charlton at Preston, his move to Brighton and the eventual club record transfer which saw Bob Paisley bring him to Liverpool for almost a million pounds in 1981. There are some cracking stories, as you might expect from a seasoned television pundit, including the tales of how Arsenal had tried to lure him to Highbury with the wonders of under-floor heating and how Kenny Dalglish offered to act as his personal chauffeur.
