Liverpool 2 Leicester 1 [PL Asia Trophy]

July 22, 2017

 

Jürgen finally wins a trophy so let’s rejoice.  The game against Leicester was typical of a pre-season game.  The first half was something akin to entertaining with three decent goals and some good football from both sides.  Our attacking play at times was sublime although maybe we did occasionally try to overdo the simple things...

Liverpool 2 Crystal Palace 0 [Asia Trophy]

July 19, 2017

 

Before the wonderfully named Premier League Asia Trophy got started I got the impression Jürgen looked and sounded like someone who’d planned to go to the South of France but had to make do with a week in Southport during the rainy season.  Instead of the usual pre-season training most of the time seemed spent...

Wigan 1 Liverpool 1

July 15, 2017

 

Wigan Piers: The days when every player reported for pre-season training at the same time have long gone and from what I gather Emre Can has only just started his holiday and is probably negotiating the price of a sun bed instead of talking a new contract.  The news that Mohamed Salah would get a...

Tranmere 0 Liverpool 4

July 13, 2017

 

The Redmen made a waterway pilgrimage to Prenton Park to play the nearly boys from the National League.  In case confusion reigns, Tranny nearly won promotion back to the big time of what was in old money, The Fourth Division.  I like pre-season friendlies as a rule because we get a few new and/or obscure...

CLOSE SEASON Part 3

June 23, 2017

 

Good Afternoon At last a biggish money signing has been spotted with his pen at the ready close to the dotted line.  Mohamed Salah has certainly taken the long route to Anfield being as we were gazumped by Chelsea a few years back.  Hopefully it will be a case of ‘Better late than never’.  We can also...

CLOSE SEASON Part 2

June 15, 2017

 

It seems ages now since the season ended; probably because the new fixtures have already been released. I’m sure many can remember the time when we’d put the dates straight into our diary and they would be set in stone, changed only by the weather or Cup involvement. I’m afraid I didn’t get too worked...

CLOSE SEASON Part 1

June 5, 2017

 

The season ended with a reasonably good Cup Final – or so I’m told because I fell asleep after watching Brendan Rodgers create his own bit of history with Celtic. Naturally Sky did their usual PR job after Manchester United won what their supports once referred to as a Mickey Mouse trophy meaning of course...

Sydney 0 Liverpool 3

May 26, 2017

 

The players hardly had time to towel down after the final league game before they were leaving on a jet plane for Oz. It was all showtime and no doubt the clubs bank balance improved as well....

Liverpool 3 Middlesbrough 0

May 22, 2017

 

Well we got the win to clinch fourth spot. It wasn’t a great performance especially in the first half when we struggled to break down the Boro defence, which was nothing new. Once the first went in as the added minute commenced the whole day seemed somewhat better. When the second and third followed in...
