Could have been easier on the pitch but I'm not overly concerned at facing any side in Europe this year given how this side is set up for the big occasion. They'll be far more worried about facing us than us them let's put it that way. Particularly after watching us wallop Munich through the week. Firmino be made up like.

To be fair pretty much everyone half decent (bar Chelsea!) have walloped them over the last month or so haha.

Quite a hard tie early on for Liverpool but they should be fine

This is true but then this was a more or less full strength Bayern in their house with them going all out for the win in their home tournament (where they've never failed to not reach the final) in preparation for their season opener Sat'day in Dortmund which they won't want to lose at all. I loved Hummels saying it was his most embarrassing experience as a Munich player. Pre-season or not.

It was interesting to watch Bayern, who came out full pelt the first 15/20 minutes, get more and more frustrated at just how easily L'pool defended against them then hit them the break at pace.

Never read too much into the summer like but I think they'll be a side or two the Champions League this season that takes a similar home hammering off Liverpool the way these reds can hit you at pace.

I have to be fair. That move was beautiful
 
I'm disappointed we drew Hoffenheim, I like them so wanted both us and them to make the group stages
 
Well, that's frustrating. Anything up to 3 months with a thigh injury.

Wonder if that will bring around a third bid for Keita? Or maybe Oxlade-Chamberlian moves from a luxury signing to more important? Personally, don't see the need for any additions for one player unless they go back in for the game changer they have Keita at but we'll see.

Hey ho. Next man up. Henderson, Can, Coutinho look's the three to open with.

Think Keita is dead. Ox is a good move, but not convinced it's good for him
 
Have no fear. Phil sitting out Bilbao with a sore back on top of that will be back page news that he's on his way to Barcelona.

Oh the drama ...... *Eye roll.
 
Well ****. That's gratitude for yer! Yer mates sending photies of what I imagine is a boss night currently in Dublin. Whilst you're stuck at home. Having spent most of the day sorting their frigging travel and accommodation out the qualifier!

Mates. Who needs the f*******? HUMPH! :@.

dunno but Klopp just confirmed Lallana out for a stint

So I was thinking. I wonder if this will put an end to Kent going out at least until January? With Ejaria and Grujic now healthy and available to contribute again that back end depth should be sound. But he does give something completely different ala Lallana to the attack so it might scupper that idea for you. Shrugs.

would love us to get him but i think its not going to happen sky installed in 2 weeks so will keep an eye out for him in a pool shirt kid has something about him
 
The away section has rail seating. This pleases me. Even though it'll be down like Europe, it'll be good to experience it first hand.

Lets say IF you lose Couthino. Who is the first name that u would want and can be bought or stick to your team as it is?

See when I answered you that if that happened a couple of years down the line, his replacement would already be here ready to (hopefully) step straight in? I wasn't being flip. This young man has everything to give him every chance to develop to that standard.

Is he ready to make the step up this soon though, if phil goes?

Thats a firm no. Lets be honest as good as Woodburn is for his age he is still a couple of years from being a regular first team player. No point in putting pressure on him now, rather let him develop at a steady rate.

God mate, he's just turned 17 and is still developing. No rush here at all. Just it's becoming more apparent with his skill set and brain he's being groomed for that role. All preseason he's played inside and he's really stood out. His game time will increase again by another 10 games or so on last years outings. No doubt about that. He's bulked out a lot too like a few other of the younger guys. That's been very noticeable this summer.

All in stages.
