Last preseason game and we go into the regular season with a bang! 6-1 defeat of Inter Milan, which isn't bad at all...

 

I know it's preseason, but hell, that's impressive no matter the venue.

Inter looked like a hot garbage last week...  Bayern scored 4 in first 28 minutes with their 2nd team but it's good to be positive ;)

Sturridge will likely not play against Arsenal due to a new hip injury. We're all shocked, I'm sure.

Have to assume Origi features up top, which is fine by me. Coutinho-Firmino-Mane in behind with a midfield two of Can-Wijnaldum. Could see either Matip or Klavan getting the start alongside Lovren. Klavan has been strong in preseason. Clyne and Moreno wingbacks with that idiot Mignolet in goal.

Arsenal will play 4-5 back-ups against you.  You guys should do just fine.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
