Thanjk you.

It's clear that emphasis has been on retaining possession in pre season. We're still prone to a few mistakes here and there which are likely to get punished by better opposition but we were professional and played well.
Karius plays much higher than Mignolet and gives us a platform to retain possession. He still flapped at a couple of balls though but he looks promising.
Good performance, job done with German efficiency. Hope to see a lot more of Karius. We've had 3 years of Mig and we know he's not good enough, lets see what this lad can do.
Good performance without really hitting 5th gear. Great to see the understanding of Coutinho and Firmino, they're just on totally the same wavelength. Thought Origi was trying a little too hard and then BOOM, great finish. He needs to believe in himself more.
We only started to get a bit sloppy when we were 3 goals to the good and the game fizzled out. Can looked very rusty and a pound or two heavy, but that's usually the case with him, needs a few more games under his belt to get into the swing of things.
Also nice to see us making 7 changes and it not negatively impact the team.
I don't think anyone of the fringe or returning players have played their way into the first choice line-up though.
Yep. Very high. He's going to be crucial to how we progress our play under Klopp. I think he might have to wait a few weeks to get his chance though but wouldn't be surprised if Klopp starts with him on Saturday.
