Just seen pre game on itv 4. Donald trump doing 1992 league cup draw with saint and greaves and getting a mug off them. Funnily he was not ginger and orange... why I cannot explain what's happened since....
Liverpool : Ward, Flanagan, Gomez, Klavan, Milner, Can, Wijnaldum, Lallana, Woodburn, Mane, Solanke Subs : Karius, Mignolet, Robertson, Matip, Alexander-Arnold, Ejaria, Henderson, Grujic, Kent, Firmino, Origi Back 4 as expected. Midfield ok. Up front mildly interesting. Bench..... I see guys who played longer than coutinho but no coutinho... tells a story
I reckon klopp looked at atletico kicking the crap out of napoli and he has sent out the cannon fodder.
Pre season is always a bit meh! Some folk get too excited or depressed by it. With season just round the corner, avoiding injuries to major players matters more than results to be brutally honest On the basis of the Audi Cup, Bayern won't make it out of the CL group and might struggle to get 3rd and the Europa. BUT They will still be shorter odds than us and Napoli with the bookies and no one would be surprised if they are involved in the sharp end of the KO's come the spring.
Untidy start, but I'm starting to like what I see here. The players seem to appreciate that Solanke is good in the air - could prove to be an asset against the lesser sides this seasons
This ref is deffo bribed. That booking is disgraceful. It would be in any comp but in pre-season?????
