Welcome to the latest edition of First State Kopites – a podcast for Liverpool supporters in Delaware and friends of those Liverpool supporters.

It’s February 16th, and it’s episode 22 of our 4th season. welcome dear listener. I’m Paul and today I am joined by Sean. We are here to talk about our first league victory of 2023. Fears of a Sean Dyche masterclass quickly dissipated. Thanks for joining us.Part 1 - Everton:

• Were we very good or are they just bad? Are they bad enough to get relegated?
• Bacjetic, Gakpo, Gomez, Hendo
• Salah positioning different? First big chance in 2023
• Refereeing

Part 2 - Big games to come:

• Late kick off against Newcastle - crowd will be hostile
• Central defender options - some interesting data on VVD, Konate, Matip and Joe Gomez.
• Then, can we just beat Real for once without them getting any good ‘fortune’
  • They haven’t been great, but they did win the Club World Cup and beat Elche 4-0
  • Can we take anything from Barca - Man U?

Part 3 - UEFA, new Head of Data, more City news, have Arsenal lost it already?

We should be back sometime next week after Liverpool have played Newcastle in the league and Real Madrid in the Champions League, before we take on Palace away. Thanks to Sean .
