    Makes more sense - he needs to get in the gym in that case.

    We shouldn't be arsed with that ****e.

    Its 1 in 1000 that a long balloon throw (most have to go very high to reach) results in anything.

    Its a rare player that can throw it flat amd reach the pen spot.

    Whoever picked the font for the back of the shirts should be fired.

    In 3 Summer Friendlies... it's hard to read anything to much from the summer friendlies good or bad. Definitely nice to see him scoring though.

    I think it's just a one-off (horribly wasteful, imo) thing. The Milan game ones were awful too, completely illegible from a distance.

    I wonder what massive publicity storm is coming for Adidas.

    All the new numbers and a big show off of players etc.

    This depends on the phase of play

    In this scenario we are looking at the side being a bit deeper.

    Without the ball theres 4 pressing and the same 4 are pushed up at the top.

    However as you move to the final third its more like 532 with gravenberch and the two full backs as the 3.

    Gakpo wide left
    Salah wide right
    Ekitike in the box
    Wirtz and macallister up there too.

    am i the only one who just wants a simple 442 or 433 rather than all these "clever" tactical tweaks :bandit:

    Severe weather warning for Liverpool today, high winds from 4p.m. Raining atm but not windy. Not sure if it will affect the games today bearing in mind they're only friendlies. May decide to play just one.

    They'll play them imo. The opposition has travelled and the crowd should largely be local.

    Have they said if there's a crowd for both games? Last year they only had a crowd for the first one?

    Tickets cover both games. Fans told no entry just for the 8p.m. game though.
