Pre Season 24-25

So, what was the goalie wearing? Some sort of peripheral vision hampering glasses?

New GK coach Fabian Otte making the keepers train with noise cancelling headphones, also with the “Swivel Vision” glasses, which limits the keeper’s vision to the right and left leading to maximum focus on the ball and better hand-eye coordination. It is intended to strengthen the eye muscles and improve reaction time.

Very interesting to see 👀

9 years ago today we were heading up to Brisbane to see Liverpool play in PS.

So ya never actually got to see Klopp in the flesh then?

[SB]

No. I tried to get txt unsuccessfully the last two visits back as we were playing much better football obviously.

[Angryred]

Ah bummer, sorry to hear that... Only seen him twice at Anfield & was sure that we would see him at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin last season only for us to crash out vs Atalanta.

Ged & Rodgers are the only gaffers I’ve seen in charge in the 7 matches I’ve seen live. 3 matches in Oz , 3 at Anfield & 1 at Goodison. I thought we were shoe ins to beat Atalanta

I wonder what we’ll get to see of the behind closed doors friendly on today. Imagine it will be plenty of the younger players but we are all curious to see how we set up and play.

[Kenneth]

We lost 1-0 to Preston.

Salah, Szob, Elliott, Endo, Jones all featured.

…..and presumably Szob injured

[peterbread]

He’s the only one who played in this game and is back from the euros and has just got back for preseason might be just a 30 minute run out to build him up for more game time.

Robertson didn’t play and returned at the same time as him.

Just watching the highlights now on LFCTVGO & our left side is Timmy, Elliot & Doak. Their goal was completely against the run of play , caught Jaros off his line from about 30m out.

Plenty of chances to score & lots to be positive about. First half Salah, Elliot, Bradley & Carvalho had decent efforts saved & 2nd half the boss would be impressed with Trey Nyoni & Gordon I’d say.

[peterbread]

Interesting that Elliot was on the left of the midfield three, I presume that’s where he was. Did he play there because of the players available or will he be on that’s side rather than the right?

Also Doak on the left, although with Salah on the right that’s not necessary a suprise. I haven’t seen Doak on the left before, has he played there before in the u-21’s or whatever it is these days.

Gordon has had time to get back to a decent level now after being out for so long and Nyoni sounds like the one with the most potential to step up out of all the youngsters.
