I love pre-season. . up until about 5 minutes after kick off when I realise I'm about to endure an hour and a half of absolute shite football.

That just about sums it up for me as well... but since we haven't reached that 5 minute mark I can't wait.

Looking forward to seeing Dalla Valle play and hopefully Shelvey gets in as well.
 
There's what looks like a tropical storm going on in Austria at the moment. The pitch is waterlogged. I very much doubt this game will go ahead.

Please tell me that cunt isn't Captain

I'm afraid it's true 🙁

That's a fucking scandal. Hope the game is called off.

im in two minds. this waterlogged pitch sounds like a chance to see if he is truly uninjurable
 
Lucas Leiva, undefeated Liverpool Football Club captain. Hmmmm. Roy might want to think about making it a permanent appointment.
 
He's got to be the worst player to ever captain Liverpool, if the game happens.

Please let it be called off and get some proper players back. Even once is once too often.

Fuck. I'm depressed
 
Delayed till 6.45..the pitch is a mess reminds me of Rugby world cup final in south africa .people have sweeping brushes on the field brushing off the water

Insua is gone?
[/quote]

Appears so, from the offal......

Liverpool have today agreed a fee for the sale of Emiliano Insua to Serie A side Fiorentina.

The left-back is now en route to Italy to discuss personal terms.

A club spokesman said: "We have agreed a fee for the sale of Emiliano Insua to Fiorentina and given them permission to speak with the player.

"Emiliano has now left our Swiss training camp and we'll make further comment when appropriate."

Insua arrived in January 2007 from Boca Juniors and has since played 62 games, with one goal to his name against Arsenal in last season's Carling Cup

Has it?

Just read that it was delayed. Heavy raining though, the pitch looks waterlogged.
 
Player out on the pitch in their tracksuits to applaud the crowd,
Looks like it is off then!

I'm excited of course. I'm also glad we don't have long haul flights and faraway tours.
I'm looking forward to seeing Shelvey play and of course Aquilani......yous know me!
[/quote]

I'm with you brother. Aquilani could be a star player for us given the chance.

Thank goodness Insua has gone, and for a good price too.

I feel sorry for some of the young lads eager for a chance to play however that was an awfully makeshift defence. Soto and Jovanavic will be available for the next game and whilst they're only friendlies, I'm sure Roy wants to start positively.
 
I with Brendan regarding Lucas and captaining this match. Thank fuck it's called off.

Yeah, Lucas should never captain us.
 
It would be the ultimate admission of our mediocrity that not only do we let the fucking twat play 40 games (in our worst ever Premiership season), but that he would *ever* be allowed to captain our club, in whatever circumstances

its a shame it would have been a chance for him to take more responsibility being captain. if you read his interview before the game he's such a nice guy. now that we're not under any pressure to challenge for the title i don't mind him being in the team. or being captain.

you know that feeling you get when you plan to kill someone, and just when you have them in your sights is when you experience pity and to feel sorry for them
 
Looking at the way the team sheet was listed on the official, it looked like Darby was set to play there, but I suppose it could have been any of the defenders apart from Ayala. We definitely need to bring in a new left back asap.
 
whats all this bullshit against Lucas being captain??

He is a hard worker and always speaks well to the media - The other options are a prick called Riera and a lazy Italian fella.. Surely people arnt that shocked with the decision?? He is quite easily the best option we have.

its the first preseason friendly where NOBODY is available..

disgusting attitude from some ... unsuprisingly its from the same idiot that abuses our players on a regular basis.
