Pre-Season 2023

[Pidge]

To be fair, Trent's switching with Mac Allister and Szoboszlai been pretty smooth this half. Far more communication and purpose, compared to aimlessly standing around in there.

[The Golden Eel]

Nice finish there 

[Tenfolder]

Diaz really is Manes replacement isn't he, will miss a bunch of easy chances then come up with a super bit of skill/finish like that.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Elliot looks like Sandi Toksvig running around the pitch.

If we want to continue with this system, Robertson needs to be benched and a left sided centre half needs to come in.

 

Unless that centre back is equally as comfortable at left back then you'd need to change the starting formation to accommodate it playing in a 3-2-2-3 from the start rather than a 4-3-3 shifting into a 3-2-2-3.

If only he had a shot as sharp as his wit.

[NoelM]

Doak is so exciting 

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

I’ve said it before, and I’ll repeat it after this one, Bem Doak looks a massive prospect. Goes past opponents with such ease. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Really hope we see a good deal of Elliott and Doak this season.

[Bjornebye]

Fair play to the away support. Hope none of them are that pissed that they think this is Anfield 

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Mac Allister looks 5 times the player Fabinho was, ar least last season, and 10 times the player Hemderson ever was.

[TD_LFC]

Is Doak good, like GOOD good, Owen/Gerrard good?

 

How many games was Saka getting for Arsenal at Doaks age, seems a similar trajectory.

[The Golden Eel]

Fucking hell, Doak is good

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Matip running will always amuse me. Like a man steering a runaway train, he has no idea what those legs are doing.

He is and he has the head body proportions of a 5 year old which makes it all seem even weirder.

[Tj hooker]

I'd love to see Doak get some serious game time this season,  looks a real prospect 

[Bjornebye]

Hahaha fuck sake, tannoy announcer just said the 8:31 trains been cancelled to Lime St. Poor cunts will have to go via Manchester 

[Jairzinho]

If John Henry is watching this Doak performanc, and read the rumours of the Saudis bidding for Salah, he'll be nursing something that almost qualifies as a semi.

I'm on it. Thanks. Have let the bizzies know. 

Fucking hell. Phone is blatantly infected with malware aids now.

I’m aboard the Doak hype train can’t remember the last young player so good at taking on players 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Some good, some bad. Bit nervous for the season.

[Anubis]

Decent performance overall. Now let’s twat those Chav fuckers.

[3 Stacks]

If Doak plays on the right, it's gotta be with Nunez in the middle. He has some great qualities, but we can't have him beat his man all the time and then cross it to nobody. 

 

 

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

We looked like a good team tonight, plenty of attacking quality out there. Also thought our pressing was better than most of what we saw last season. Worry is the soft defence, it’s far too easy to get in behind us, and it’s been like that for a while now. A new quality DM is of course required, but that alone wont solve the problem. 
 

Mac Allister looke pure quality, our best player imo. And Ben Doak, fucking hell.

Yep he's amazing. 

 

I even wrote a song

 

Doooooooooooak on the water

But fire in the sky

Dooooooooooook on the waaaater

 

Doak Doak Doak

Doak Doak D-Doak

Doak Doak Doak 

Doak Doak

 

Another big positive is Szobosaias corners - they could be a big weapon next season. Its great having dangerous corners. 

 

Mac Allister was the best player on the pitch today.
