LFC vs Mainz 0-0 at halftime.
1st half standouts were Konate and Keita. Tsimikas and Elliott have also been lively. Starters are all out though.
It’s very clear that this team is hurting for another holding midfielder without Fabinho or even Henderson available. While they are trying to replace Wijnaldum, they need more of a 6/8 than an box to box or a 8/10. They are also trying Harvey Elliott a bit in the midfield too. Between Chamberlain, Jones, Keita & Elliott they have enough cover in those spots. They have nobody else that can hold the midfield.
LFC win 1-0. Owen Beck and Kaide Gordon impressed again. Winning goal was an own goal from a Beck cross that Gordon would have scored if the defender didn’t touch it first. Gordon especially has really impressed this preseason so far.
Don't assume you paid any attention to Mainz, but did Nebel or Papela flash for them? Nebel's a very crafty 18yo and Papela was an exciting talent before stagnating the past two years.
