Pre-Season Game 7: AS Roma

[eecheerow]

Milner starts over Moreno at left back (has to be favourite to start vs Arsenal there at this point), Emre Can gets his first start of the pre-season, Manninger starts, Benteke on the bench (will be surprised if he comes on, but we'll see).

Manninger; Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Milner; Can, Wijnaldum; Mané, Firmino, Ojo; Sturridge.

Alisson, Florenzi, Manolas, Juan Jesus, Emerson, Nainggolan, Paredes, Strootman, Salah, Džeko, El Shaarawy.

What a pre match for Klopp - sat in front of 20 odd kids asking him brain numbing questions, fair play to him

 

[HC]

First 5 minutes and Manninger with a great save and dzeko with a bad miss.

Roma looking good

Found one.

We're 1-0 down.

 

[Ryan]

Thanks RA.

 

[Gary25]

Despite his undoubted improvement last season, I wish I could say I've 100% trust in Lovren as a player.

 

[Modo]

Just watch it on YouTube...

 

[Ryan]

Just saw the goal. Nice finish from Dzeko, but the cunt had all day long to pick his spot there. Sturridge has missed two great chances too.

 

[Modo]

Manninger is really 39 years old.

 

[Ryan]

Oh awesome Modo, cheers.

 

[Gary25]

Just saw the goal. Nice finish from Dzeko, but the cunt had all day long to pick his spot there. Sturridge has missed two great chances too.

Thought the first was a great save...nice the way we cut through them. Should've connected better with the second.

I'm liking Mane...looks like he needs a goal to settle him down but he's a proper livewire. He's so direct.

 

[Ryan]

Firmino continually dropping deep to pick up possession. Interesting to see the role he's playing. It's almost a move to free himself up from opposition, as the Roma side - like most others - are blocking the simple pass from the defence to Can or the other midfielders, so Firmino dropping deep provides a free, easy option.

 

[Red Astaire]

Haha! He still looks miles better than Ming - I'm off to bed 😎

 

[Gary25]

Fucking hell Lovren, that could've been a pen.

 

[Ryan]

Klavan's immediate default to defend deep on the last-line and right on the back foot is really worrying. Step the fuck up.

 

[Gary25]

Yayyy 1-1. Ojo.

 

[Gary25]

Klavan's immediate default to defend deep on the last-line and right on the back foot is really worrying. Step the fuck up.

He does appear a little slow.

 

[Red Astaire]

Thanks RA.

You're welcome - It sort of staggers me that someone can take the time to do this streaming links thing. I just copy&paste it. Anyway enjoy the game. I'll watch it in the morning 🙂

 

[Ryan]

1-1 Ojo with a header from 0.3 inches out, Lovren won the first header, Ojo knocked it on.

I really like Ojo.

 

[Modo]

 

[Gary25]

1-1 Ojo with a header from 0.3 inches out, Lovren won the first header, Ojo knocked it on.

I really like Ojo.

Bestest 11 material?

 

[Modo]

 

[Gary25]

Pitch looks dodgy.

 

[Modo]

Ojo is fucking proving himself.
Obviously, his chance was harder to miss than score but he was there.

Despite his undoubted improvement last season, I wish I could say I've 100% trust in Lovren as a player.

He's always got a mistake in him. Id complain about him, but the alternative is Sakho.

 

[Modo]

He's always got a mistake in him. Id complain about him, but the alternative is Sakho.

Don't forget matip

 

[Ryan]

A raft of half-time changes, including Markovic and Moreno. About as exciting as the time my condom slipped off whilst fucking some fat moose in my uni days.
