We never at any point had our strongest side out but a lot of performances that will (or should) set some minor alarm bells. I think at this point Anderson has shown he’s capable, he looked a level above ASM to be honest? On what we have currently he deserves a start.. ship Maxi over the right. Longstaff wasn’t great, Murphy was shit, Fraser was non existent and Almiron looked incapable of creating anything. I thought we might have enough as back up to Wilson but I was way off, we desperately need some reinforcements. Midfield and up front. We need 3 players. In an ideal world, we'll sign three players, but we don't need them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought when I saw his attire. Black nylon trakkies as well.

The Prophet Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 We've strengthened a squad that finished 11th last season. Brighton are weaker, while Palace, Wolves and Leicester haven't done much yet. I think if we want to improve, we need a right winger first and foremost and I think we'll get one. Less important, but I also think we'll sign a back up for Wilson. A midfielder would be ideal, but isn't essential. We don't NEED three players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Didn't we have half a season of Champions League form with Wood and Fraser/Murphy/Almiron up top, with no Wilson and Trippier? Of course we need more signings to guarantee progress but we could probably muddle through and still secure a top half finish with what we've got. It's barely even worthy of discussion anyway cos we definitely will sign a couple more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Maxi showed was fairly standard for him, yes some games he can run the show but not often enough for his ability. We haven’t seen much of Anderson but let’s assume that his level, he can more than stake a claim to be in this side. The team we were playing today finished 8th in the Bundesliga last season, comparable to what we managed. So they were no slouches like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I love it when people go overboard with friendly results, it's only our second real friendly, the whole point is to iron out any kinks that appear, get the players up to match sharpness and set out a tactical plan. Mainz are also further along in there prep as it was there last pre-season game and there season starts at the weekend. Do you think Klopp was worried after getting dicked 4-0 to Man United last week? Arguably you gain more in these sorts of games, then you do if you just smash 3/4 past a championship side.

Ken Boon Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Just seen the Mainz goal. What the fuck was the ref playing at, I thought the oppo had to be 10 yards from the ball at free kicks, not 2 yards ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
