Didn't see any of todays game lads,anyone care to give a quick run down please

First half was ok, preston are actually a decent side in fairness to em and had the better chances, coutinho was our best player and ibe came on after 20 for can who came off as a precaution. He also did well, we conceded just before half time from a corner and goal mouth scramble.

Two changes at ht kelly and lambert off, suso and robinson off. Suso again made an impression and bagged a goal, lovely left footed curler into the corner. Made changes pretty much throughout the half and peterson put us ahead after some impressive work from ibe down the left hand side. It was a very young side for the second half but were surprisingly comfortable in possession and dictated play, granted preston changed their xi completely at half time so it was probably a weaker side from them too. Rossiter, for a boy was very impressive it must be said, still a long way to go but we could have a very good centre mid on our hands here.

£8.5m for Loic Remy is a great deal. £14m for Fabio Borini is really good business.

Hold the horses. Borini apparently doesn't want to leave now.

What Twitter accounts are worth following for reliable-ish transfer news?

It's all well and good with a player saying they don't won't to but what happens to Borini if BR tells him your not part of my plans ?
I don't mind any player staying at LFC to prove their worth but sometimes you have to ship a player out to accomadate a better player .

These rumours better not be true.

Which one?

Borini blocking the Sunderland move. Will fight for his place or wants a better move ( italian club ?)

EDIT: only rumours at this stage

Should have moved to you guys. Ya's obviously loved him

kevohmsford · 19-07-2014 08:04PM

I am sure Rodgers will convince Borini that he needs to move to Sunderland to play more football.

Tony Barrett and James Pearce would be decent, beware the fake accounts tho

murpho999 · 19-07-2014 08:06PM

Why do Sunderland like Borini so much and Liverpool don't?

Now apparently he doesn't want to leave.

Would like to admire him for it but he's never done much for Liverpool on the pitch apart from running into spaces where the ball isn't (excellent movement!.

Also I find his knife biting celebration stupid and annoying!

Paully D · 19-07-2014 08:07PM

A Sunderland Echo journalist tweeted the below:

Talk has it that the rejection motive is coming from a disgruntled ex-Director of Football at Sunderland who is feeding it to Di Marzio (SP?) and co. He also told them that Mannone had handed in a transfer request once Pantimilion signed.

I hope Young is correct.

19-07-2014 08:10PM

Fair play to Borini if he wants to stay and prove himself.

That was the point of his loan move - send him away to get games and impress. He's kept to his end of the bargain.

Morata away to Juve, £15.8 mil / 20 million euro, Real with a buy back option.

I'd say it's all Twitter rubbish.

Even if it were true all Rodger's would have to do is tell him he has no future and won't get games etc surely that would make him want to leave.

MD1990 · 19-07-2014 08:47PM

I think its true he wants to stay. He put in alot of effort today & look disapointed coming off too. He has a great attitude & I wouldn't mind him staying at all.

Yeah, while the other team had 3 or 4!!!! :pac:

Delighted to hear that Wisdom has secured a loan deal with WBA, just hope he gets plenty of premiership game time and develops well. Will be interesting to see if they deploy him at centre half or full back. Hope he does a job on our competitors a la Assaidi and Borini last year :P

Why was he risked today I wonder?

Because he wants to stay id say. Rodgers seemed coy about the Sunderland move too.

I'd imagine Sunderland want him to get game time!

Slightly risky no? Despite being a friendly you never know what could happen. Awkward fall, bad tackle etc

That's why it can be tough to buy young talent from big clubs because they might want those sort of clauses inserted into contracts .

I'd be delighted if this is the case. I''ll allow myself the odd romantic notion of a player that wants to be here and wants to prove himself.

His demeanour when taken off didn't strike me of a lad that doesn't want to be in this team.

Bounty Hunter · 19-07-2014 09:48PM

Obviously he had a slight ankle injury but what are people opinions on the role that Emre Can will play for Liverpool this year? I've seen people saying that Gerrard will be phased out this year and that a new DM is needed but is this not what Can was bought for?

Cheers klose,good to hear Ibe played well again.
With Saurez gone i wonder will Coutinho shine this season

Romantic notions I'd be over the moon with 14m and use 8 for remy. I certainly wouldn't be delighted if he stays, that's too good a deal to pass up. Il really hope deal goes through

Borini is one of those players that's needs to play week in and week out to get the best from him. He simply won't get the game time required to do himself justice next season in a Liverpool shirt.. Think it do him to world of good going to Sunderland where he'll b the main man leading the attack. Good move for both parties

Lucas didnt play well & I wouldn't mind seeing him let go. But the abuse he is getting lately is disgraceful. Its as if some fans didn't learn from when Lucas recieved alot of abuse when he irst arrived.

Maybe they did learn, but they learned the wrong thing. They learned that if they abuse Lucas he will get better!
