Preston North End 1:2 Liverpool FC. In game & post match discussion.

Something else for Ibe to work on, he's got to do better than that.. Nice interplay to create the chance though

Ibe's gotta hit that first time. Some lovely little build-up play though.

Can we bring this crowd to every game?

Joe Allen has had a decent game so far

Lucas is frustrating the hell out of me

Can looked a bit like Matic in those few mins. Beast. Hope its not a bad injury

Borini so ordinary today. £14M? Yes please

Jones went down very early then... lucky Wisdom blocked it.

Wisdom lost his man again there from the cross. 

I was just cheering the save ....

Thank F**k this wont be our starting back 4

Few times now we've looked suspect from corners

I'm guessing we're still not learning how to defend in training?

Jones done well for the 1st attempt but he should have punched it with more power

I'm hoping this set piece vulnerability is down to less preparation for pre season games. That wasn't the only time we looked shaky from a corner today.

I forgot how awful it was to watch preseason matches. Sooooo slow.

I think you're expecting a bit too much there from a reaction almost point blank shot.

Allen, Skrtel maybe Coutinho (I probably expected too much)and Lambert pick of the bunch for me.

Coutinho and Allen are my stand outs, and we really need exceptional full backs come the start of the season. Hope Enrique is 100% fit.

Not really impressed with any of our lads that half, although Coutinho was probably our best player again.  I thought Lucas, Kelly, and Wisdom were all dire, but then I have doubts that any of them will even be here come Sept 1st.....

Along with our poor defending, Lucas is not giving the defence any cover.

Ibe and Coutinho looking the most promising but feel we need to be a little more patient with the ball. Our full backs are not giving great width here.

But this match is purely about fitness so it doesn't really matter.

Imagine getting worked up half way through the second game of pre-season.

Fitness. All that matters.

It is primarily about fitness, but I'd like to see some better organization and discipline from our back 5.  The spacing and positioning of our back 5 was awful!

Fitness. All that matters.

I'm not too concerned because, as I said, I don't expect a few of the primary culprits to be here this season, but it was frustrating to watch....
