David James speaks to Matt Addison about Alisson Becker, Jurgen Klopp and his old club Liverpool's defence of the Premier League. James explains why Thiago Alcantara has made him change his mind over who will win the title this season, plus why Liverpool's goalkeeper Alisson is so good. The former Reds number one also talks through what he has seen while visiting Melwood recently, what should happen next with Loris Karius, who remains a Liverpool player, and why he rates Mikel Arteta so highly ahead of the Arsenal manager bringing his side to Anfield tonight.
