Liverpool Pre- and Midseason 2022-23

I feel like Ancelotti’s comments after the final about us being predictable were overblown as I doubt Klopp nor Pep have any expectation of taking teams by surprise, but this contrast between these two does add an interesting dynamic.

I didnt get to watch today, but I’m still interested in seeing how Mo adapts to Nunes being a more traditional CF.

How good is he only 17 where did he come from?

I was just checking the youth thread. Unless there are two Bajcetics, apparently he was played as a centreback for a while. But I guess at that age you transition positions a lot.

Talking about centre backs, I don’t think Gvardiol played today did he? Would like to see these sort of touted future superstars in a full match instead of youtube compilations for once.

From what I have read, he started out as a CB but has transitioned into a DM. Seems to have great composure and eye for a pass.

Nice work Darwin. Their keeper was shiiiiite though.

New kit looks class on. Might get it!

Darwin scored goals? How can this be? After reading Twitter, I was sure he would be a bust based on 60 minutes of pre-season football in Asia after joining us a week ago.

I can’t believe Twitter was wrong!

Good run out. 5 crappy scrappy goals but good to see Nunez get off the mark.
Kit looks lovely. All Red, you can’t go wrong.

I was on it for about four days years ago. It was like being in a mental hospital. I don’t get it at all?!

I wonder if it’s the same accounts that are constantly jerking off over Mason Greenwood…

I can’t think of a better description. Stark raving mad!
And you’ll unnecessarily ruin your mood by wasting time there.

Unfortuntately missed this due to my sisters graduation celebration. So happy for Nunez to not just get off the mark, but to have such an impressive arrival game.

At 68mins (ish) in.the highlights he look SO happy and I hope this good moment lasts a very long time.

He’s already scored multiple times against PL sides…in competition! And against LFC who actually have defenders!

If preseason doesn’t count then neither does Man Utd’s “win”

Now watch them wheel out more and more nonsensical responses (as if the previous ones weren’t idiotic enough)

I am very excited about Nunez.

I actually find it intriguing that both teams have invested big money in a more orthodox CF. It appears that both Klopp/Pep have identified this as the natural progression of football. I personally (and hope that I am right) feel that our style is more adaptable to this change and also that Nunez is probably more flexible as a player - Don’t get me wrong i respect Haalands ability.
