if liverpool had won at hull city 3 or 4 nil if would have been comments like" that it its all over give us the league now" what a performance , we are the best team ever , dalglish has waved his magic wand and the team is great ETC ETC , well liverpool got beat and yes i agree it doesnt mean much , but dont kid yourselves it was all great last week beating chinese and malay semi pros its was all this is it that is the team so on and so forth , now its the same old excuses IE it was a bad day at the office , its doesnt matter , who cares , well that what i have been saying its doesnt really matter but it does mean this tteam still has a long way to go and all the bravado will only put unduly pressure on a team and squad in transition , listen peop;le this new regime is a project in the making that will take time for it to come good , yes it might be next season it might be the season after , but all you can ask for is improvment , dalglish is a new manager and should be looked on like a new manager and new manager will need time to mould a team , its will not happen over night and people have to forget last season very good very nice the second half was but it meant nothing the work starts against sunderland , and aw i have said a great season for liverpool would be finishing between 4th and 6th and a cup run in one or both of the cups hopefully winning one , that would be massive progress , and then build on that from there . I would be happy with a top 6 finish and an appearance at the new Wembley hopefuly winning one of the cups, thats my success target for this season anyway.

It's pre-season you doorknob. You're not even a liverpool fan RED NS, you talk about big clubs and Liverpool not being one. I don't know why you bother. We are a big Club in name only and thats because of what we have done in the past, I question your motives in supporting the Club because going on what you have just said you only support them because you think of us as a big Club, you are a plazzy fan bet your not even from Liverpool, . Oh here we bloody go again.  Yet another OOT hater tit comes crawling out the closet.  F U C K RIGHT OFF! Those sort of comments are NOT required in here. Well said Growler, but it won't deter him, as he clearly has an agenda to cause as much disorder on this site as he can, before he is booted off!! He's either manx or spurs, either way he's a pathetic plonker!!!

Right back to topic.... My verdict: First half was rubbish both defensively and attacking. I will start with Ngog because in the 3 matches he played he has scored 3 goals but he has not done and does not warrant a starting place neither a bench place for the league. I definately think I could do a job better then him and thats how I rate him. We need to sell him/hang him or do whatever it takes to keep him away from the team. Aquilani suprisngly looked out of sorts again but the players around him were shet, Cole did everything he could but it wasn't enough and it was a very poor performance overall including our debutant keeper Doni. 2nd Half: In came Downing and Hendersen for their debuts. Great link up play, wonderful passes from Hendersen and some good service from Downing, they are going to be great for us. Other than that there is no other positive to take from the game sadly besides these 2 players. I thought the whole squad underperformed for this one. Can't wait for the next game  i thought AA was the best player in the 1st half. he showed some good touches and made some good through balls. he didnt play well in the 1st friendly but was great in the 2nd and put in a good show last night Well my only interest in watching the warm-up was to see how our new signings would perform. I have to say I am feeling even more positive now about next season than I was before the match. All our new boys looked sharp and created good chances, which for a pre-season warm-up against a PL strength team is very encouraging and they will improve as they go into the season. Going forward we are now a force to be reckoned with!!

I think you will find about 95% of this thread agree with you as I explain in the other post that all of us have the same expectations as you two and thats being in top4/top6 and winning a trophy.
Back to Back World Champions baby!

I always welcome a poor pre-season because it usually heralds a good real season start. How many good pre-seasons have we had raising expectations an then....
Don't ask me why but thats the way it normally pans out.

Back when we were winning things we nearly always had bad pre seasons. Not a big deal.

dont no how anyone can take anything from the pre season games so far. Weve had a different team in both halfs in every game.

Roll on the season proper, by which time LFC may have strengthened the obvious current weak lin, the defence. Once that's sorted WHY the hell can we not challenge for PL title ey? The others are going backwatds and heading for turmoil. Sick of repeating meself here. Like banging me nut against a piggin' brick sh1t'ouse door.

i am with grumpyguts on this one, the buys are gonna pay off i saw some good bits of movement form henderson and downing just being on the pitch transformed everything, makes carrol look so much better when teams are turned and running back to their own goal, last season all he had were long punts and he was getting fowled all the time from behind or falling over, but it makes sense, i think kenny will struggle to find his first choice 4 in midfield cos defensively I dont think there are any great ball winners adam would seem to be the best at that job, defensively last season we were sound i never worried about left back , its central defence that we need to modernise on thats all, i never even thought about what position we would get , as going on runs of wins of games is the thing to do, having said that on paper i would 'expect' 3rd but 3 - 6 is possible, and if things click the set up at the club is on for a title challenge but thats where luck comes into it as a bet i d say 3rd though
