      For some reason, this clip reminds me of the Psycho shower scene.

      I suspect it could be Sturridge? Flies in with his left foot, so I assume it's him. 

      Yeah, they were suppose to have a live training session (probably boring warm-ups) today, but equipment got damaged (due to sprinkler :D) and they said they would put a training video up instead :)

      There goes the money for the Dybala transfer.

      OK, since I know you can't wait, here's my updated prediccy for our two lineups in the Chester match. Klopp mentioned the other day that he wants to change all 11 players at the break, but that he doesn't have enough defenders to do this and play 4 at the back. While I suppose they could draft in a couple of guys from the U23s or 18s, he probably wants to give everyone who is in the first team camp a game (Matip and Lallana are ruled out with injury/illness).

      This match is really just a run out, so there's no harm done in playing 3 at the back, and that's the only way I see to make the separate XI thing work. So how about this:

      1st Half

      NB: Team no longer available

      2nd Half

      NB: Team no longer available

      Looks like some of the guys for this half are too new to the squad to be in the predictor, so I used players not involved to show where they would be.

      Kelleher is the 2nd goalkeeper, not George.
      Curtis Jones for the attacking mid role, not Alves
      Camacho for the left mid role, not Dunn.

      Oh I know. And Shemel George is not with the first team training. You are definitely on the ball mate! :-) - I just posted it and then immediately wrote in the little edit to make those three corrections.

      Fabinho hasn't been given a number yet.

      Fabinho number update
      Fabinho will wear the No.3 shirt in Liverpool’s pre-season friendly against Chester FC on Saturday, although his official squad number for 2018-19 is yet to be decided.

      The Brazil international, who officially joined the Reds from AS Monaco on July 1, is in line to make his debut for the club at the Swansway Chester Stadium.

      Fabinho has not yet been assigned a squad number for the campaign ahead, but will wear No.3 against Chester.

      Can't remember too many pre-seasons where our first game included so many first team regulars.

      Should be a piece of piss but seeing Keita and Fab run around will be exciting. Also lads like Kent, Ojo and Wilson who've spent time in the Championship last season.

      So I guess the sports science peope say Pedro C. isn't fit for 45 minutes but the kid Phillips is. But when that change is made we'll have 2 defenders on.  :)

      Perhaps they'll be rehearsning the "we need a goal in extra time" setup. Even though we should be up about 6-0 by then.

      I have the live feed on now. Apparently there is some tournament going on in Russia at the moment. Can't be bothered with that now...

      Not bad given its World Cup year. Delighted to have the lads back on the pitch and the boss back in the dugout!

      Right guys, PLEASE no England vs Sweden spoilers in here!! I will watch the QF right after our game!

      Edit: Will probably be difficult to avoid as the crowd will most likely cheer when England scores.

      The comms will likely give it away on LFC TV as well. But I'll do my part.

      Too many new haircuts for me. I'll need comms to ID everyone.

      Now, if JP DellaCamera is doing the comms for American TV at the World Cup, I'll mute THAT in a heartbeat - or watch it in Spanish (and no, I do not speak Spanish). He's that bad.
