The Joy of Liverpool FC

Olympian effort? No

Well, the friendlies fizzled out with a seven goal whimper tonight, when we struggled, huffed and puffed against a side that only have had one previous pre-season game. Ok, the lads were looking pretty relaxed about the whole thing, and there a new team came out at half time, but to let in three goals! And worse still it could have been more but for some dodgy offside decisions.

Of course we can always put it down to the Gaffer experimenting with the defence (as well as the midfield, attack and type of water).

Still, not a bad start, five games and 17 goals for, 6 against.

And the verdict on Hightower? Jury still out
