Match Day Thread The Great Big LFC bash... Preseason Thread

Hope lovren hasn't done his hamstring there...

 

Lovren possibly injured?

 

Grujic 4-0

 

90th minute and Hendo closing down iniesta... Lovely lovely header from Grujic. Absolute class. Guy has looked very very good pre season.

4-0 v Barca? Take that even if they are undercooked.

 

Get in
4-0 Grujic !!!!!!!!!!!

brilliant pressing by Hendo

 

Lovren looked ok, just taken off as precaution i feel

 

What a goal from Grujic, can't wait to see him in the prem

 

So pre season done (apart from a friendly for the reserves tomorrow).

Whats the team for Arsenal?

Mig
Clyne Lovren Klavan Moreno
Can Hendo
Mane Wiji Firm
Origi

 

I think Wiji will drop and be a CM so it'll be a 4-3-3 I think.

Great performance and good to finish pre season with a win.

 

Well that was alright.
Same team tomorrow?

 

Not Coutinho?

Firmino is poor out wide IMO. Waisted.

Mignolet
Clyne Lovren Klavan Moreno
Henderson Can Wejnaldum
Mane Firmino Coutinho​

 

hes terrible upfront too. Best striker Origi should play

 

Nope. Spurs got shut cos hes not great at all.

 

Though he played LB for Spurs.

Maybe Spurs just lacked the imagination to try him in midfield.

 

Not for me.

For arsenal i think

Minger
Clyne matip klavan moronic
Can henderson
Mane firmino coutinho
Origi

I think having seen wijnaldum he could play cm but not v arsenal first game out. He could play no 10 though...

 

Dunno about that. He played cm and rb.

 

I wouldnt be surprised if Klopp takes a few weeks tio work out the best balance with his atacking talent.

We have a very exciting attacking group of 8.

Coutinho, Firmino, Wejnaldum, Mane, Lallana, Origi, Sturridge and Ojo.

Ok Ojo is young, but exciting.

Milner and Ings are solid work horse players who will also play important parts in getting the best out of that 8.

 

Origi has to play up front.

The lad is a goal scorer and only going to get better.

 

I think right now theres options but the single most important player is already mane. Without his pace and directness we are back to last years playing in front.

For me origi and mane must start. After that the other 2? Firmino sometimes coutinho sometimes... but i feel as though inconsistency is their issue.

I think sturridge if ever fit can play but ings i feel isnt up to it. Yes ojo is decent. Id like to see him watch mane now... wijnaldum and lallana can be swapped for cputinho and firmino to keep the competition up.


After that..... can and henderson must start at cm. Grujic im not sure where he will play. Really has done ok so far but could also play up.

Cb is an issue now. Lovern hammy? Matip? Weve 2 available full backs only too.

It is what it is.... theres 3/4 must play players in our squad. Clyne can mane origi.. after that let see who steps up to join them. Could really do with matip and karius making themselves indespensible too.

 

Milner apparently not looking good, needs a scan. Surely we bid for Hector or someone now.
