This Is Anfield @thisisanfield 3h3 hours ago NEW: CONFIRMED: Jurgen Klopp signs new six-year deal with Liverpool Speaking on signing his new deal, Klopp insisted that “there is much to do and much to achieve” in his time at Anfield. “It’s hard to express in words how honoured myself, Zeljko and Peter feel by the commitment shown in us by the ownership and the club in general,” he said. “We are very much at the beginning of our journey, but to already have the connection we have with this very special place is incredible. “I am the first to recognise that with this great commitment comes a great responsibility. “All of our coaching careers we have looked to make teams and clubs better, with the ultimate goal of making the supporters proud and happy.”

Viktor Fagerström@ViktorFagerLFC 3m3 minutes ago The substance Sakho took was NOT on WADA’s banned list & WADA did NOT even attend in person but merely sent written submissions (Paul Joyce) Guy missed a Cup Final and the Euros for that. Pretty fucked up.
I don't think anybody watched but supposedly all the young guys looked good. Mane showed glimpses in the 1st and Ings was good in the 2nd.
Completely forgot about Ings. Really hope he's able to rebound. For the little bit he played early in the year he was pretty decent from what I remember
Obviously just a preseason game against a lesser club and just highlights but really liked what I saw from our attack. Lots of pace with markovic, ings, and mane. Should be able to matchup with most teams as far as pace goes.
Just got through first half that I taped today. Ejaria was surprisingly polished and could be a Yaya Toure type of player in time. Lovren looks more composed, but still prone to stupid errors. Mane and Firmino already seem to be in sync on what each other is doing, but Firmino looked rusty. Kent is a baller. Matip was good, but nothing special. Karius plays out of the back better than Mignolet, but was never really tested. Mane has that speed element we have been missing since Sterling left. Oh, and we still suck on corners. Zonal marking is shit. Tranmere had at least 2, maybe three hand balls in the box not called.
Second half. Ings will be a fan favorite and score important goals for us when he plays. He just always is around the ball in the 18 yard box. Had a nice bicycle kick that just went wide as well. Alexander Arnold is very good. Made a great run and then set up Ings for his goal at the end of the run. Chirivella has some great potential. Always looking for that dangerous pass on the runs through the middle. Markovic still can't finish. He had two point blank chances, one of which went off the post. Wisdom was very solid, as was expected. Moreno and Ilori were uninspiring. Randall owned his wing all half,but nothing special. Stewart is a very smart player. He played at holding mid in this match and did really well.
Benteke, Ibe, Skrtel, Canos, Alberto, Allen, Markovic, Wisdom, Balotelli, Ilori + those already gone could give Liverpool 100m. (Echo)
Not ready to sell Markovic personally but if Klopp is then ok. Rather loan him to a top 5 league team if he doesn't fit yet.
Just browsing through some of their transfer costs, obviously disregarding wages, was interesting. Benteke £32.5 Ibe undisclosed Skrtel £6.5 Canos undisclosed Alberto £6.8 Allen £15 Markovic £20 Wisdom youth squad/undisclosed Balotelli £16 Ilori £7 (rumored) ~£103.8+
David Anderson @MirrorAnderson Fenerbahce claim Martin Skrtel will arrive with them tomorrow to complete his £5.5million switch from Liverpool. David Anderson @MirrorAnderson Liverpool are mulling over their next move in attempts to sign Piotr Zielinski. May end interest after having £11.75m bid rejected. David Anderson @MirrorAnderson I'm told Liverpool are not interested in signing Sissoko from Newcastle.
