Apart from Endo at 6, the other 5 midfielders and attackers could be lining up in any of the 5 positions available.

First look at Van Den Berg.

Am I right in thinking this eleven is pretty much the strongest we could pick from the current squad?
I am very curious to watch the game since apparently Arne likes to play 4 3 3 switching to 4231, or maybe even 4 1 4 1. !!
Do you know if Kaide Gordon is with the squad, or did he go out on loan.?

[miller0863]

Gordon is with the squad.


Substitutes: Jaros, Phillips, Nallo, Chambers, Beck, Bajcetic, Morton, Stephenson, Nyoni, Doak, Gordon, Koumas, Blair

Well my stream went down as the players came out so I may as well call it a night ..

Is that code for "I'm getting too old for this shit"...?
If so, don't blame you....

Stream came back as I was about to give up.

Salah assists Szoboszlai for a neat right foot finish across the goalkeeper.

First goal under Arne.

Liverpool 1-0 Sweaty Bettys

[miller0863]

Salah very nearly with a second assist, but Connor Bradley thwarted by Adrian.

H/T Liverpool 1-0 Sweaty’s

Minutes in the legs, some looking heavier legged than others.. Harvey I’m looking at you.

Carvalho just seems so out of his depth in a Liverpool shirt, whether that will change down the line who knows but I doubt it from what he’s shown since signing.

Sepp Van Den Berg looked solid, decent enough in possession and quick enough so far. If I was Slot I wouldn’t be rushing him out of the door, already looks way better at CB than Gomez.

[faridtoxteth]

I agree about Carvalho. He doesn't seem to know where he should be on the pitch at any given time.
Connor Bradley looking brilliant, how he was before his injury, and his link up with Salah is excellent.
Endo had a bit of a mare.
Van den Berg seems to understand the system very well. But we are going to have no finger nails next season with all that playing out from the back.
We seem to be playing 4 2 4 as far as I can tell.
Great goal from Dom.
Quite a pacey intense game for a preseason friendly.
