Didn't watch the game but was following updates. Disappointing to have 4 put past us. How were we defensively?Keita was impressive again, should be a nailed on starter for the opening game (please stay fit). Had some really great touches on the ball, pressed well and was strong in the tackle. Elliott looking like a good midfield project, willing to work both side of the ball and when in possession his first thought is to always play forward and pick out the forwards. Making runs. Think he's a head of Jones right now.
Not sure what to make of Mane and Salah right now, a little underwhelming but I could just be expecting too much from them and it is only preseason. Taki/Ox in the false 9 is also ??? at this stage, think I prefer Taki over Ox in that role but would obviously have Bobby/Jota ahead of them. Really hope we buy another attacker...
Seems as tho once again we missed a hat full of chances. Guess it's positive we're getting into those positions tho?
Said at the back of last season that Klopp will try to put Ox into that false 9 as cover for Firmino. Reckon he'll do well there as has an eye for goal and has always been good at pressing. Just his fitness is a concern.
Keita? Everyone is just waiting for the inevitable injury. Expect to hear something today tbh ... Cracking player when fit tho.
