Oldham 3 Liverpool Under 21’s 2

August 8, 2019

 

Posted at 06:38h in Uncategorized by

The first game in the English League Trophy but a loss at Oldham. The lads played well in an attacking sense but there were question marks over the defending. Neco Williams had put our boys ahead but then we conceded two goals when we should have defended better.  Harvey Elliott levelled things before halftime. More...

Liverpool 1 Manchester City 1 [City won 5-4 on pens]

Hate losing, regardless. Normally losing on pens is hard to take, but despite the hype this was still a glorified friendly but if it wasn't we were the better side over 90-mins and had we won nobody could have cribbed about it. Only we didn't. We hit the woodwork thrice, saw one cleared off the...

Liverpool 3 Lyon 1

When you lose a pre-season game we’re told not to get too worked up about it and the same should apply when we win. However, the showing against French side Lyon was times better than the showing in some other games. Even so, a howler from Ali didn’t help the mood early on but from...

Liverpool 0 Napoli 3

Probably our worst pre-season showing for many a year. A poor show all over the park and no excuses either. 70,000 turned out and unless they supported Napoli, they went home disappointed....

Liverpool 2 Sporting Lisbon 2

July 25, 2019

Final game of the US tour and maybe another slightly disappointing result. One down early on before Origi and Wijnaldum turned things around before halftime only for the Portuguese side to level it in the second half.  Probably a fair result in a game which saw the debut of Sepp van den Berg. These tours...

Liverpool 1 Seville 2

A 'home' defeat at Fenway Park; so the US tour not going quite as planned.  The Spaniards appeared to have come for war judging by some of the treatment they handed out.  Once again Jurgen opted for the mix and match approach and a lack of cohesion is there at the moment.  We went a goal...

Liverpool 2 Dortmund 3

July 20, 2019

 

Posted at 07:07h in Uncategorized by

First stop on the US tour was Indiana and it resulted in a defeat against old foes Dortmund Borussia. Like with pre-season wins pre-season defeats don't really matter, not when the football is twenty odd aside.  Too many faces still missing and others just getting on the field to stretch their legs.  A goal down...

The Rumour Mill

Bloody annoying isn't it. That's why we choose to ignore it. The obvious could happen like Simon Mignolet will go in search of first team football as might Nathaniel Clyne.  So we may sign goalkeeper cover but doubt very much else will happen.  Our advice; ignore the rumours....

Bradford City 1 Liverpool 3

Posted at 06:57h in Uncategorized by

The second game of the elongated warm-up campaign took us to Bradford to lend support for ex-red Stephen Darby who now lives with MND. So the result and performance secondary and a sell out crowd helped the cause. First half wasn't too bad with Milner scoring with a deflected long rage drive and a penalty....
