Charity Shield 2025 - 3pm - 10/8/25

Don’t think we need to worry to much about Salah, he’ll find is feet with the new setup.

Frimpong's going to be fun. He seems to have all of Darwin's madness, but to be a better footballer. Keeps going absolutely flying into things

 

[manic111]

Wirtz is special. Not necessarily sure he's going to score or assist a ton, but he's going to be at the centre of everything for us. Reminds me of young Kaka

Good half by is, exciting play by our new players.

Very, Wirtz , Frimpong and Ekitike the stand outs in that half. Was really impressed with Ekitike, lots of clever little balls, flicks and tricks, bit reminiscent of a faster Firmino.

 

[AStaley]

So I’m the only to think Wirtz has done okay, but nothing special yet. A little to early to judge and I’m sure he will take a little time to get fully up to speed.

Done pretty well for me, 4th most touches of any player, 1 assist, decent for his first "proper" game in a new league/country.

 

[C Kent]

Should have done better

 

[Tombstone]

Should have done better

Would have been offside but yeah should have

 

[MissChief]

I know it's not even halfway through the second half but it really looks and feels like Salah is not the focus of the attack any more. Little is going down the right for Liverpool.

 

[Tombstone]

Crikey, I had completely forgotten that Jones was on the pitch

 

[manic111]

Crikey, I had completely forgotten that Jones was on the pitch

He's been fine in his role. Deepest midfielder, he's stepped in well at times and is shifting the ball around well. He's never going to be flash there, but that's not really the point

 

[C Kent]

Some people are going to be really annoyed when hes named vice captain

 

[manic111]

If we don't sign a defender (and I still maintain a DM to compete with Grav) this is going to be another season where we're very happy to have Ali

 

[Purdy]

That’s a red

 

[manic111]

Think we may need to buy a CB

Virgil on Strike

 

[Tombstone]

Been an unusual performance by VVD today, not been quite at the races

 

[AStaley]

Nunez on for the winner…..ah, bugger.
