Match Day Thread 2023 Pre Season Matchday Thread

Can only think it was so we had a senior keeper for an emergency and it allowed Harvey Davies to go out and get proper first team football

Kelleher would be 2nd choice behind Alisson anyway

 

Yeah looks like he's staying.

 

but he was missing so i am assuming now he is for sale.

I heard wolves were making a serious enquiry.

 

TBH they had 2 sets of kids on in the second half and it was total chaos. I would asusme some will be headed home and not all the way to singapore now.

We missed a shed load again today

really we need to settle the team down now and get to 60mins very quickly of a settled line up for the start of season.

Today we saw gakpo at LCM, we saw zero out of this opponenet until we flooded the place with kids. it's impossible to say if gakpo at 8 in 3223 would be the option.

We saw macallister at rCM

 

Did you watch? I had assumed looking at the line up it was more 4231 with the front 4 like we’ve seen in the past and mac and TAA as holding midfielders.

Tbh, early game time is more about fitness and getting sharp rather than any real tactical stuff. That all comes in the training and on the later games when first team players are all playing together for 60mins as you say

 

Apparently it's because Klopp wanted to give all the goalkeepers some game time and now he has. No offers in for Kelleher and Klopp intends to keep him for this season.

 

Well I hear wolves have made a serious enquiry.

I really full to see how 2x 20mins is giving the keepers anything personally.

if anything pitaluga needed a full 90 to impress someone to get a loan.

 

Oh dear ......

 

Yeah,couple of weeks ago......nothing more on that

 

It's not like we had to rest Kelleher in case he gets injured in the game.

 

Defence looks like this.

In the second half.

 

gomez.and matip are absolute and complete disasters zones

 

Nunez and Salah linking up nicely in pre season. Nunez tucking away chances well although he also scored 4 in 1 game last pre season then fluffed load of chances. I’m hoping it’s similar to benfica though, ropey first seasoo ok n before banging them in 2nd

 

he looks very lean as well.

I reckon the front 5 will be on it. I have this hope they will be anyway.

the second konate gets a knock (it happens every 5 games) we are so ****ing screwed though.

macallister looks alight.

can't judge trent stood round at 6 in a one way traffic game.

 

That is a nice goal, but I don't think Premier League defenders would be so lax.

 

its preseason. no actual attempt at a block or challenge.

kind of like all their goals

 

God no, not unless we have a top backup in mind, and not for anything less than £35m.
