Great end to a special pre-season, on and off the pitch, that’s seen the football club re-enter the real big time and rediscover a connection with its fan base, that started the European run last year, that’s been as boss to see as anything. From the superb BOSS Nights abroad they’ve laid on, through the American experience that took over everywhere and the brilliant fan days Dublin and last night. The ridiculous amount of money raised thousands of miles away from normal folk for food banks in Liverpool. Brining the local community into the equation through the ‘Reds Neighbours’ initiative, and all points in between, the football club has really embraced their ‘This means more’ mantra and really starred to listen and reconnect with the support and our unique fan culture. Everyone on the same page and having a ****** good time at every turn on this journey back up the mountain.
And the single best window we’ve had since windows became a thing.
There’s no definitive starting XI to this side now. You can have legit arguments over who should be at RB? Who should partner big Virge? Who should make up the midfield 3? Should Big Shaq start?
That’s what proper big clubs have. Top quality options across the board. We got to the biggest game in football last year with 12 fit players. The sky’s now the limit with the quality depth and ridiculous options to call on game-by-game.
Throw in a togetherness within the group and a connection between manager, players and fans I’ve never known in almost 4 decades going the match unlike anything else going on the PL .... The unique power of this football club when all those three, Shanks ‘Holy Trinity’, align as one .....
This is fixing to be a real special season where NOTHING should be out of this gang of Reds reach.
Is it Sunday already?
