I thought there was a question over whether the game would take place?

Confirmed today it will go ahead. Preston apparently in discussions on how best to honour Jota as want to show their respects.

Very surprised it’s being televised. Was that already determined or has that just happened since Jota?

It was always planned to be.

There's too.much on the line for Preston amd fees and such but i am also sure the players said they would want to play to honour jota anyway

Fair enough. Strange one, don’t remember having pre season games live on tv before?
 
Glad you made this clear otherwise I might never have found it. <ok>

Absolutely.

I haven't the heart this week to look up the full fixture list and post it even so you are lucky I even posted this.

It'll be an odd bloody thing to be on itv and what will they talk about except the obvious.
 
Liverpool:

Mamardashvili,
bradley Stephenson Gomez,Tsimikas
Gravenberch Nyoni
Chiesa Szoboszlai Ngumoha
Salah

Or some such.

Subs: Woodman, Pecsi, Endo, Nunez, Jones, Gakpo, Robertson, Doak, Kerkez, Frimpong, Nallo, Koumas, Morrison, Pilling.

Note that most others were off playing internationals so that's what we have available.
 
Second half team

Could be any keeper
Frimpong nallo Robertson kerkez
Endo jones
Doak morrison/koumas gakpo
Nunez


This should be telling us all how short we now are at the cb slot.
 
This half is really just about seeing if nyoni has grown up any, if chiesa has lost a stone or two and if Ngumoha has got what it takes.
