Grasshoppers vs Liverpool

[diego]

Lack of respect for supporters. He's obviously taken a bung from the Grasshoppers. I saw him in the grass rubbing his two hind-legs together.

[Ted]

Seen a picture on the offal and Speo looks to have putten on a little bit of beef. Hopefully he'll be given a fair crack this season.

[RedKnight]

And that's why I don't watch pre-season friendlies.

[ronnie38]

And he was rubbing his thumb and forefinger together laughing at the players saying they can't sack me.

[Brigant Moloch]

and we played like a bunch of fuckin' kids against some mickey-mouse swiss club...oh, wait...

[WaltonRed]

I watched it didnt think anyone was poor apart from Degen who looked fucking gash yet again.

[Ynwa20]

Shelvey looks comfortable on the ball, seems to have a presence... I predict good things if we can get him on the bench this year.

[Yozzer]

Few observations after watching that:

 

-Degen is still shite,

-Ayala was solid at the back along with Kelly,

- Gulasci looked good when coming out for the ball,

- Shelvey looked comfortable on the ball and always wanted it which shows he has confidence.

- Amoo looked good at running at the full backs and seemed to have a bit of skill about him

 

Apart from that the game was pretty dull.

[Pidge]

I'd say the same about Ince personally.

 

That was in response to YNWA20

[Brownie]

Typical fare for the opening friendly really with it being a fitness exercise. Having said that, I thought Ayala was very impressive.

Agree with that.

 

I also thought Aquilani was poor overall, bar the odd nice touch and Ngog did well with the relatively poor service he received.

Pretty much spot on, wasn't expecting much from the game but it was quite awful to watch for periods.

I agree mate. Great to get a look at the guy who has massive potential.

Has anyone thought of having penalty shoot outs at the end of drawn friendlies ? Would give players a chance for practice, and a result for the fans. Just a thought...

[Monster Masch]

I can't wait to see all the first team playing together.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Gutted I missed this.

 

*sniggers*

[BexBissel]

Crap.

[nimrod]

lucus labia. . .Very good.

[hamstrung]

Saw the interview with Shelvey during half time. He looks like he should be in one of those camps for kids with a terminal illness.

 

He's the oddest looking 18 year old. Does he have alopecia?

[jacksonc]

yes he does

[cyador]

Hopefully he won't, he's shit.

[Trucker Paddy]

just finished watching the game, Ayala is an outstanding prospect, he's only 19 and I think he should certinly be the 4th choice centre half this season.

[RedKnight]

I must be missing something with Ayala because I don't think he's very good at all.

[Trucker Paddy]

He's always looked good when he played, strong in the air, tough tackler reads the game well. i dont think we've concede a goal in his few apperances although thats obviously not just down to him.

[Kurt]

Far from the finished article... But the improvement over the last year has been astonishing. That being said, when I first saw him for the reserve he was terrible.

[rafathelichking]

Hopefully he won't, he's shit.

 

Think that's way harsh. Worked bloody hard for the team last night, never stopped running and made interceptions and put in some good tackles. Kept possession well also, by and large. Doesn't look the finished article but has a good work ethic and has definitely improved positionally. Looked more assured on the pitch than a lot last night, I thought.
