Poetry in Motion: Single most important signing Klopp has made and why we are now seeing a different Liverpool

Summary: Neil Fitzmaurice is back from sunny Prestatyn for his latest Poetry in Motion podcast and, joined by Paul Wheelock and regular sidekick Joe Rimmer, the trio assess Liverpool’s flying start to the season. Virgil van Dijk was the star of the show at Selhurst Park on Monday night and Fitzy admits he is fast running out of superlatives – and expletives – for the centre-back. Paul likes van Dijk’s ‘arrogance’ while Joe goes further in his admiration of a player he sees as already being in the Sami Hyypia class. Talk then turns Naby Keita, another Reds player catching the eye, only for Fitzy’s mum to unexpectedly cut the conversation short. With phones now on silent, the focus switches to Roy Hodgson and a choice analogy and great story involving Billions star – and big Liverpool fan – Damian Lewis and a special night with Sir Kenny Dalglish. The lads then lavish praise on the ‘machine’ that is James Milner and argue why there should be no concern over summer signing Fabinho. Manchester City once again look the team to beat this season but does their new documentary underline Pep Guardiola’s fear of the Redmen? Fitzy certainly believes so. And another must-listen podcast ends with predictions for the Brighton match. We’re not giving the game away when we say there is every confidence the Seagulls will be on the end of a hiding.
