Guangdong 3-4 Liverpool - Post-match thoughts

It's a 2pm Kick off here in Luxembourg so have enrolled daughter in an after school club so I can watch the end of the game before picking her up, does this make me a bad dad or a dedicated fan !

Both,only kidding Steve.

I'm just assuming those players are on the asia tour.

All are except one, Reina. Am I correct people. Henderson is at holiday.

I can see Adam starting this game. YNWA

think ill  be working from home then this wednesday at 1.00 then boss..

cant wait.. hope we hit  the ground running this pre season rather than the flat pre season of the last few years

To be honest the result aren't gonna bother me that much, as long as the sqaud gels and gets it right for the start of the season proper !

i know what you mean yes, its fitness and getting the new players integrated, but we need the odd performance in there, especially towards the end of pre season when those levels should be higher, last pre season we didnt win a game did we? the season before not much better.. it cant help to be flat and beaten by all teams in this period then expect them to raise their levels for arsenal on the first game of the season like last year..

its not the be all and end all dont get me wrong id just like to see the boys gel a bit earlier this year

Gorgeous looking stadium, apart from the running track.

And can't wait for this. First game back!!!

Here we go then.....looking forward to this game, but I don't expect to much from the lads.....

We had a pretty dismal pre-season last year, I agree with robbieisgod, we need to be up and running by the time we play Valencia on Aug 6th, just one week away from the real start.

Woohoo...3 days away! Can't wait. Missed the lads so much.

Hope we get off to a good start.

Meireles isn't out of the tour. So he could feature.

Looking forward to a bit of footie at last, probably have to record it and watch it later on LFCTV.

Same here.  It's repeated at 8.30pm on Wednesday on LFCtv.

Sky Plus comes into action

That's one hell of a stadium.

If you take some binoculars to see the pitch, yeah.
Like robbieisgod, I'd also like to see a good result for once and it wouldn't hurt out reputation over there to knock a few goals in. I know it's not priority but it would be nice.
I'll be at work as well so won't catch this.

Anyone knows the full squad travelling to Asia?!

I think majority of them are there except for Lucas, Suarez, Gerrard, Henderson and Reina.

Very happy to see a pre-match thread once again

Working for the this one. Can't believe it, been given loads of time off so far and they want me in now, when the game is on. Gutted.   

Going to have to be a record job I think.

Players traveled to Asia: Gulacsi, Jones, Hansen, Kyrgiakos, Kelly, Ayala, Carra, Flano, Robinson, Wilson, Wisdom,Agger,Adam,Meireles,Shelvey,Spearing,Coady,Poulsen,Cole,Maxi,Pacheco,Aquilani,Ngog,Kuyt,Carroll..

Insua will join up with the squad in Malaysia because he couldn't get the required VISA to travel to China. No idea where Skrtel and Johnson are though.

Does Guang translate to Huge?

Really looking forward to see the lads in action again. It will be great with King Kenny as boss from the start of the season again

Will miss this actually because I'm in college on Weds afternoon. I guess I'll just tape it then.

Does Guang translate to Huge?

Think it may mean Light.

Scrape that, Google translate is making it up.

GuangDong, sounds like a Tekken characters penis.
