First pre season game: Preston (A)

[FreshRed]

Kerkez is just an excellent player. A fantastic transfer and massive upgrade.

Hard as nails as well.

On the other hand, Frim looking rusty so far, but not seeing much of the ball.

 

[MomoWASright]

Fuck off England you snidy cunt

 

[Shay_K]

What, No VAR

 

[Glen C]

How was that not a pen?

 

[FreshRed]

How was that not a pen?

Because we know what to expect from this referee.

 

[FreshRed]

What a save!

 

[Fabio]

And Preston score

 

[Shadey]

1-2 great header

 

[Fabio]

Bullet header. Ben Doak marking a fucking giant

It’s the Liverpool way.

 

[Shay_K]

1-2

 

[FreshRed]

Poor defending, but set piece defending bound to be dodgy with a makeshift team.

 

[Fabio]

@Modo JONES DID THE THING!

 

[Squiggles]

It's pleasing we've carried on our tradition of putting our smallest, weakest players against their strongest, tallest players at corners. What's life without a bit of jeopardy.

 

[Modo]

I bet Jones holds on to the ball for too long and gifts them a counter attack

Boom

 

[Shay_K]

Bullet header. Ben Doak marking a fucking giant

The corner flag is a giant next to BD

 

[FreshRed]

@Modo JONES DID THE THING!

Yes he did. First time today, I think, but in the worst possible place. Typical.

Its zonal witb our little guys marking runners in. Was it Nallos zone?

 

[Fabio]

That's a lovely goal that. Wonderful pressure from Doak, sensible dummy from Darwin, composed from gakpo

 

[MomoWASright]

Mad wee Ben shite then wins it back to set up gakkers.

 

[Shadey]

Well in Ben lad.

 

[Shay_K]

GAKPOO

 

[Modo]

Yep, that's what I saw. And his attempt to head it away didn't look convincing either.

 

[FreshRed]

Nunez has done well today. Against weak competition, but hopefully a confidence builder for him.

Even if it only means that he is easier to sell.

 

[refugee]

Didn't realise how quick Koumas is

 

[MomoWASright]

I’ve enjoyed the game. Some good stuff.

 

[Fabio]

So, a review

Both young tiny wingers did well. I like them both
Kerkez is going to be some fucking player for us.
Frimpong was much quieter, but didn't do anything wrong.
Chiesa was meh. Nunez put away the only chance he had. Gakpo tried his hardest.

Frimpong going backwards and winning the ball made me smile.

 

[Shadey]

Those cream coloured training tops have spice boys blazers written all over them.

Agreed. First half was much better with everyone looking at least okay.

Second half, Kerkez and Woodman looked promising; Nunez encouraging; Endo solid. Thought Frim and Doak (bar his assist) were disappointing on the right and koumas non-existent. Robbo and Nallo not good, but not unexpected.
