3 - 0 win in Germany at Hertha for Liverpool. Goals from Solanke, Wijnaldum and Salah, and apparently a good all round performance.

Hertha were very, very poor though. They didn't get the memo about pressing the player with the ball if you have a high line.

Lost 1-0 to Valencia the other day, I wasn't there but I'm told it was incredibly boring and neither side looked like they wanted to be there. Also the new barcode turnstile system broke on its first test. Bodes well!

Liverpool play Bayern tonight then either Atletico or Napoli tomorrow. Don't see what they'll get out of it in the second game apart from losing electrolytes.

Half time and 2 down to Burton. We are having one shit pre season. Played about 10 minutes of half decent football so far. Hopefully these games are showing up players like Ulloa, King and Okazaki as nowhere near good enough and something gets done. Cos it looks dangerously like these guys are gonna get a lot of game time.

Gray comes in and we have some threat.
Benalouane is also lucky it's supposed to be a friendly cos his foul on Warnock was red worthy. Immediately subbed.
Shame the bald fuck can't keep his head.

In other news Sturridge scores and then goes off with an injury. How very unlike that guy.

We just beat Bayern 3-0 in their own pre-season tournament. Sturridge with the highlight, coming on late, scoring a beauty and coming off injured all within ten minutes. Atlético tomorrow in the final. It's good fun but you couldn't care less about these things to be honest.

If only he was a SturBridge. He'd be made of sterner stuff.

Let's hope they aren't on form when we play them!!

Comfortable 4 - 0 win away at Bayern (I'm counting that Grujic goal), but really feel for Daniel. Haven't seen Liverpool play so far in preseason until tonight and I was hearing good things about him that he looked sharp and fit, and when he came on he looked pacey and looked to have lost a couple of pounds; but to then get injured immediately after that fine finish is terrible. Hope its not serious.

????

Lallana was in an offside position obstructing the goalkeeper, who then steered it into his own net. Of course it wasn't a good goal, there's no way even you could argue Lallana isn't affecting the play.

It's a goal, Lallana wasn't to know the cross would be shifted onto an oncoming Grujic behind him to slot it away. If friendlies are meaningless anyway then I can have that goal. :)

Btw that's the first time I've took notice of Kent after hearing how he can skip past people and he didn't disappoint.

He's in an offside position. He affects the play. So it's offside. It's a fact.

Yesterday Steven was arguing against grammar. Something is happening and I don't know what it is, but I don't like it.

Bilo, I want you to know that I can't watch the Liverpool game tonight because United are playing Sampdoria.

OK mate?

Yeah, watched this match, it was broadcasted live at Sky Sport News HD in Germany. Funny the interview before the match with David Wagner and Hannes Wolff. Both are pals and were at Dortmund together.
Stuttgart dominated the first half but in the 2nd they let it slip a bit. No wonder, it's still nearly 3 weeks until the start of the season.

btw: Bayern even lost the match for 3rd at their own Audi Cup 0-2 against Napoli. That's now 4 losses in the last 5 friendlies. Interesting to see how they'll react for the German Super Cup on Saturday against Dortmund. (James injured, out for several weeks).

Later I am watching Liverpool vs Atletico. Hope the Reds will perform like yesterday and beat the Spaniards...yeah it's only a friendly but ....;)

Nothing wrong with choosing a match of a club of your country.

Rosenberg? Isn't that the (actual) club of Lord Bendtner? Or is he already on the move again?

Pass, dunno Dirk tbh. It's a CL qualifier though and evenly poised on 0 - 0, so its a competitive game at least.

We just got thumped at home to some shit German side.

The defending from the defence and CMs was an embarrassment to football.
