Crystal Palace 0 Liverpool 2

August 21, 2018

 

Mo Salah didn't score but he was games biggest talking point after being fouled by Sakho and us getting a penalty and then being professionally fouled and Palace getting a player sent off. At the end of the night we won 2-0, tough away game negotiated.  Hodgson and the Palace can moan for as long...

Mo Salah

August 17, 2018

 

There's been far too much coverage especially on Social Media about Mo using his phone whilst driving. We know it's against the law so why don't they just let the law deal with it? As far as Mo not signing autographs when he's with his family why should he. There's a time when you're on...

Liverpool 4 West Ham 0

August 13, 2018

 

As far as first games go, this wasn’t a bad start. West Ham aren’t a bad side but they were never really in this game and the scoreline didn’t flatter us. Good start from Keïta and Alisson wasn’t overstretched. However, Milner stood out and not just because of his headband.  All in all, just about...

Liverpool 3 Torino 1

August 8, 2018

 

The final workout and a decent show for those who went. There were a few iffy moments at the back but things can be sorted. Credit the club for the continued efforts to interact with the support; things like that can go a long way....

Liverpool 5 Napoli 0

August 5, 2018

 

Around 50,000 entered the Aviva Stadium and probably 99% of them were Liverpool fans.  For the first time in the pre-season campaign the starting line-up might reflect what goes out against West Ham on the opening day.  Taking into account Napoli aren't as far into their build up as Liverpool a decent showing was the...

Manchester United 1 Liverpool 4

July 29, 2018

 

This result will have absolutely no bearing on the season ahead and everyone should be aware of it.  Forget Mourinho and his everlasting whinging because in the grand scheme of things at Liverpool he doesn’t matter.  The most pleasing thing about the performance should be how much better some of our younger players seem when...

Manchester City 1 Liverpool 2

July 26, 2018

 

Well it just goes to show what class can do.  If we're honest Manchester City seemed shorn of more top players than we were but good to see Mo and Sadio back in tandem. Immediate impact from the bench in the case of Mo Salah, 'inspired substitution' and all that. Penalty shhot out looked likely...

Dortmund 3 Liverpool 1

July 23, 2018

 

All seemed to be going reasonably well until the final thirty minutes. 1-0 up and looking like we were in control. Then it all changed. Pre-season games are for more than getting players fit because footballers are professional sportsmen and therefore should be fit.  They're also for players to show what they can bring to...

One In One Out

July 20, 2018

 

The news was finally confirmed, Alisson signs for Liverpool thus surely improving the quality of LFC custodians. Then we hear Danny Ward is probably going to Leicester which lessens the options. However, let's hope the days of goalkeeper rotations are done with....

Blackburn 0 Liverpool 2

July 20, 2018

 

Pre-season games such as this are definitely games of two halves.  As is the norm Jürgen went for the twenty-two player option and we get told in the build up about players trying to impress.  In the first forty-five minutes of this game not too many actually impressed. James Milner missed a penalty five minutes...
