    Also when do we ever play the likes of Roma in our second preseason game...... Last year we were playing a malaysian xi at this point.

    I think there are far more positives than negatives and we have players coming into to cancel out the negatives...Im happy

    The commentator misled the American viewers on the stream i watched, he bigged up Roma but failed to stress they were playing our youth team.<grr>

    Always sad to see us lose but its a pre-season friendly and a good run out for the kids and a chance for Lucas regain fitness and confidence.

    The result is more an embarrassment to FSG than the team due to them not cherrypicking the opposition(maybe New England Revolution?)to have given us a better chance of a win at their Fenway Park home.

    I reckon on saturday we will start with the best players from the last two games and then bring on the likes of Gerrard in the second half.

    Think Morgan and Eccleston have kicked their last ball of the tour as im hoping Borini and Carroll will get a half each on saturday......

    Wouldnt drop either Pacheco or Sterling from the left for Downing though...lol

    Fenway is supposed to be our home in the USA, so we should call the shots when we play there.<grr>

    Mate pre season means **** all. You can win all your pre season games 6-0 and then lose your first 5 league games and then who gives a **** about pre season??? Thought we did ok and on another day we could well have won that by a goal or two. The better team won yes but that was our youth team, reserves and bench against a very good team. Losing 2-1 is better than expected when looked at from that perspective <ok>

    Agreed <ok> although the young lads did pretty well I think the next game will see a more experienced team.

    FSG put the massive THIS IS LIVERPOOL FENWAY hoarding outside the ground, they named one end of the ground The Fenway Kop, got a full house with 75% LFC fans......then choose a strong Roma side as our opposition.<laugh>
