Liverpool Fc @ Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings

[ThisIsMelwood]

Liverpool ended the pre-season with a Win beating Lyon 3 to 1.

Goals by Firminom Wilson and OG. Looks like youngsters who played well will be given a chance to play more in this coming season.

FIFA snub Man City.

Three Liverpool players but none from Manchester City have been nominated for the FIFA Best Player of the Year award.

FIFA meant to punish Man City for FFP.

Van Dijk is accompanied on the men's shortlist by Liverpool team-mates Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane following their Champions League win.

The awards will be handed out at FIFA's Best Football Awards in Milan on September 23.

Much much better and it needed to be

Credit where it’s due, lots of good performances, controlling and creative, cute passes and delicate dribbles. Stunning goal from Wilson who surely has to stay if we are not buying anyone. Lallana did well and read the game well. Shaq was industrious, Keita looked remarkably sharp and made some excellent movements on and off the ball. Mo and Firmino looked understandably rusty but showed glimpses of pure class also. Hoever showed why he is rated highly, tenacious and always willing Larouci similarly on the left , always offering. And Harvey Elliott despite the dodgy haircut shows again why he’s so highly rated, 16 and plays like a seasoned pro unlucky not to score

Onward to hopefully a good game against City on Sunday. This performance against Lyon will hopefully put a much needed spring in our step

Harry Wilson impressive strike from outside of penalty box. Had been years Liverpool had a player who can strike from distance.

Interesting article and not sure if true.

At one glance at a certain angle, Wilson looks like Tores...
Pom's perception only lah

Quite a common perception. I think he can easily replace Lallana when Lallana's contract end after this season.

Liverpool cut down to 24-man training squad as Community Shield draws closer

Sepp van den Berg, Ki-Jana Hoever, Yasser Larouci, Adam Lewis and Bobby Duncan all featured in that clash, but have now all returned home as Klopp streamlines his group.

The quintet can be called up and fielded anytime necessary.

I don't think it is true.

If you follow what FSG and Klopp had been saying through out the summer, it is quite clear that no marquee signing was on the list for this transfer window.

Klopp may well have wanted a marquee signing(not necessarily Pepe) , I mean who wouldn't right, but I suspect FSG told him this coming season is time to consolidate instead.

Hopefully this decision does not come back to bite them in the bum.

Very interesting, thanks for the info

So looks like Wilson is more likely to be staying than going to Bournemouth and young Elliott's star is indeed on the rise

Quite sad though, as Melwood has a lot great rich history, just like The Boot Room.

Well, could and should have won. Although City could and should have gone 2-0 when Sterling was clean through.

Performance in 2nd half was so much better though and we were the better side in that period.

Wonder what the possession stats were like in the second half. Was like we owned the ball!
Keita came on and actually had a positive effect. that bodes well. Hopefully Keita will establish himself in our midfield this season.

I thought Fabinho did well too. Can't wait for Mane to return but seriously think we need to buy another pacey winger, unless Liverpool feel super young Harvey Elliott is ready.

Anyways, disappointed to lose on pens, but promising performance after lacklustre 1st half.

The real work starts on Friday, bring on Norwich!

I thought Liverpool have nabbed it in the final seconds of injury time but Walker cleared off the line.

[countryman]

Salah easily had 10 chances last night but his finishing was very poor!
Even though it was only a Charity Shield match, the feeling still sucks losing to Mcity n it was again on penalties!

[francined69]

disappointed not to win the game in the 2nd half. we need to do better finishing off the chances.

will be another test against Chelsea in the Super Cup.

Liverpool completed West Ham goalkeeper Adrain.

Bye Simon Mignolet.

Well here we start the campaign with all players in-tact. Mane is back at Melwood.
