Topic: The Anfield Wrap

Ghana, the various Guineas, the Guyanas ... I'm not surprised they were getting mixed up.  I assume 'Guinea' must mean something like '-land'?

Is anyone else unable to read the full show descriptions on Pocket Casts? Minor annoyance but it drives me up the wall!

Pocket casts is shite mate, got to be honest.

By far the one we have most problems with.

Lol at the Echo for the Xabi Alonso interview. Monkey see, monkey do...

I've unfollowed them, far too much shitty clickbait garbage

[Don Vito Corleone]

None of my business really, And, but some of the preambles on the pod descriptions are often too long on Podcast Addict also and they cut off before you can find out who is on a pod and what the content of the pod will be.

SEO mate

True. But TAW has been even better recently, which suggests they're responding to the competition in the correct way.

[fintanmar]

Loved the Xabi interview.

Great work guys

[Red Viper]

Totally agree with Steve Graves on Cantona. So overrated. Never managed 20 league goals despite playing up front for the best team in a dreadful league and taking pens.

With Ferguson and the class of 92, United would have won all those league titles whether they'd signed him or not.

Think the 95/96 season is what makes people (not me!) rate him highly. Felt like the bastard scored a lot of important goals in that run in although you could just as easily argue they won the League through their defence that year as I think they went on a run of 1-0 wins in that time,  bit like in 08/09.

[thekitkatshuffler]

Neil Docking is so fucking good.  Ban This Filth is my favourite show when he's on it.  Glad the Echo haven't banned him appearing on it, if that's even within their power to do.

[Phil M]

Would it be possible to give this a shout to raise awareness?

So, it's just me that got a previous version of Ban This Filth this week?  My download is the one which had Guttmann on and the topics were worst World Cup, worst song and something about media coverage of football (bad camera angles for penalties, too much focus on controversies rather than tactics).  I think there was a reference to it being recorded after the Manchester United game.

Yes Andy, I have Pocket Casts, so it could be that.

Sounds like I missed a good one!

I had the wrong one first time around too. They fixed it later on, if you go back and have another look it should be there.

Luis Garcia: Neil is a great presenter and contributor but not the best interviewer. Talked too much rather than letting LG tell his own story. Interrupted him a fair few times as well.

Huh, I was just going to say how much I appreciated the direction he took the interview, given how easy it would have been to give it the "Sangria and Istanbul, eh, Luis?" Opinions and all that.
That being said, I've really enjoyed all the differing approaches from the contributors to interviews they each do, keeps the tone varied. 

[The Lord Admiral]

Carra mentioned it and then Alonso hinted at it as well in his interview - what a great addition in a Sporting director type role he could be for us. Let him have a bit of time off and then put him to work attracting the best talent in Europe.

Two great interviews (as was the Garcia one).

[Raaphael]

Think Neil is a great interviewer. Think he`s able to be impulsive and react well to answers. The interviews are never static.   

[Ipcress]

OK, have to register my huge disappointment that after two great interviews with Garcia and Alonso that when it comes to Wildcard sausages there's not even a mention of Chorizo 

[Don Vito Corleone]

The main show this week is a 90 minute plus chat about our goalies with ACTUAL opinion from REAL EXPERTS.

No fake news ere

[Brunswickred]

I would just like to say how much I enjoyed Ben Johnson & Adam Melia on Wildcards.

[armchair-fan]

Agreed.  The chorizo, saucisson, salami Southern European style sausage was by-passed all together.  However I do agree with Neil that England lead the world in sausages.  There was also no mention of the traditional banger being chopped up and served with pasta, a more than acceptable carb to eat your sausage with.  And while Ben Johnson is a funny bloke and adds a great deal to many shows, his views on mashed potato are flat out bonkers and need to be challenged by the other panel members much more strongly.

Nothing beats Irish sausages or pudding!

The chat about goalkeepers was brilliant.
So well structured and thought out.
Nice to hear some expert opinions and learn a bit about our young 'keepers.
Well done!

Trumpism.

Good Lord, a new WWCH.  I thought we'd had all we were getting for the year.

[bradders1011]

We got as far as the Super Cup, so I'm estimating a 13-parter here.

Ian Salmon on Unwrapped spoke nothing but truth.

[Iska]

The inevitable end-point is a WWCH that has more episodes than the season during which it is being recorded.  I fully support this, I should make clear.

Enjoyed it too.
Just wanted them to ask about Achterberg's influence - positive or negative - we, outside the goalkeeping fraternity have no idea about his relationship with the keepers.

I've always thought if he was no good one of the 4 managers he'd have worked for would've gotten rid, its not like the club haven't spent a small fortune on sacking managers and their backroom staff the past 7 years.

Agree.

But none of us know. There was some interesting points made about psychology and father figures and it would have been helpful to hear people in the knows thoughts about Achterberg's influence/performance/ability to stop all the guesswork we regularly get.

But talking about that without resorting to guesswork would be impossible, that's why I swerved it.

I've got my own opinion, but it's hardly qualified.

[lamonti]

Looking forward to the 05/06 WWCH - such an enjoyable season. But, please, don't preface these things by making us come to terms with how long ago they were!

[lamonti]

The Pink was just like a normal show. Would have preferred a lot more shouting, and generally pointing out what a bunch of shithouses the Ev are.

Do a special on Robles. His responses on 2 of the goals yesterday was like one of us was thrown straight away to that level of footy.

[Lycan]

Robbo on BT sports yesterday. His opening line was - "Everton haven't won at Anfield since 1999". Good lad!
