    Am raging I missed it. Didn't realise tickets went on sale when they did, but even at that I didn't expect them to sell out so quick. Knowing that it would basically be our 3rd string playing, didn't think that many people would be interested.
    If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

      i think it goes to the level of our support - we managed to sell out Ravenhill (granted its a small ground) to watch what is our third string team play

          Highlights have been replayed back to back constantly on lfc tv, sometimes without being advertised. I keep missing them myself though bar the odd minute here and there.

                    I thought you were but as I was typing on my phone in my earlier post I was too lazy to check.

                    Don't worry, once I finally get to see them I'll describe them all here in vivid detail.

                    Ngoo.

                          I'll miss hit you, you ****er.




                          Edit: You didn't say miss hit.

                          But the point still stands.

                            Liverpool Reserves: Previewing*Attackers

                            With the LFC Reserve season inching closer (first game is Monday), I'm going to get the blog warmed up for what will hopefully be a season of great success for our youngsters. Without further ado, I'll begin giving my take on Liverpool's three main strikers in the reserve team.

                            Michael Ngoo: Ngoo is one of those players that catches your attention every time he steps onto the pitch; at first because of his towering presence, but then because of his remarkable finishing and overall play. At the age of 19, this year is important as he tries to prove himself to be worthy of a future first-team spot. For Ngoo, the ability to be an absolute monster at the front of the attack is certainly there, but he must stay healthy and become more consistent. When he is in good form, Ngoo posseses a lethal combination of size, strength, and quickness on the ball. In a lot of ways he plays like a small player in a big mans body, and his excellent ability to finish chances in the box with his feet is a good example of that. With the strengths comes some weaknesses for the forward. Ngoo has a tendency to play too small and because of this will fade out of games occasionally, which doesn't translate well to the unforgiving and very physical Premier League. At this point I think his ceiling is a 8-10 goal scorer in the EPL, but he will only achieve this if he begins using his strength better amongst other small tweaks. So far Ngoo has played brilliantly in preseason matches so let's hope that the recent form is a sign of things to come.

                            Nathan Eccelston: In general, I'm not Eccelston's greatest fan, and he is getting to the age (21) where the results have to start showing up. Eccelston's greatest weakness may be his greatest strength, depending on your perspective. Critics would say that he doesn't do anything particularly well, but supporters could argue that he is just very well rounded and doesn't do anything particularly poorly. I think that there is an eventual first-team place for the hard-working forward who plays at his best in a passing system, although I imagine appearances will be limited to coming off the bench. If Eccelston can kick up the scoring a bit, then expect to see him on the first-team bench come March.

                            Adam Morgan: Perhaps the reserve forward with the most potential, 18 year old Adam Morgan is a goalscoring machine. When he was playing with the reserves last year, Morgan looked extremely comfortable and played very well in the NextGen series. Right now, I think that only an injury (knock on wood) would stop him from having a solid first full season with the reserves. Morgan is probably at least two seasons away from breaking through to the first team, although cameo appearances along the way are very possible.

                            Dani Pacheco: To be honest, I can't say that I am a Pacheco expert simply because he has been taking a tour of Europe in the last couple years through various loan spells. From what I have seen of him, he is a very creative player that has a chance to fit in well with Brendan Rodgers. This year he will spend a lot of time floating between the reserves and the first team this season, so he will have to take advantage of every opportunity that he is given.

                            Hope you all enjoyed, follow the blog on twitter @anfieldasylum if you haven't done so already.

                              Rodolfo Borrell's new-look U21s take on Wolves in their 2012-13 season opener at the Kirkby Academy - a match you can watch live on LFC TV and LFC TV Online from 1.45pm BST.

                              The new format of the Barclays Premier Reserve League sees the young Reds face the likes of Chelsea and Fulham this season, and to spice up the programme there are play-off rounds to decide the overall champions in the second part of the season.

                              Borrell's side were in rampant form during pre-season winning all their six games and firing 21 goals.

                              Michael Ngoo was in brilliant form during the close season hitting six goals while Spanish ace Suso netted four.
