These preseason games are not like pro bowl games.  Players will still go all out during preseason.  I remember watching PSG vs. Chelsea 2 years ago and it was amazing high tempo game with constant attack by both teams.  You need to remember that end of July is first time for players back in months together and these preseasons set the tone for upcoming seasons.

On top of the fact that, at least for this Liverpool/Dortmund match, there will be a mere splash of front-line players with the rest of the squad filled out with youngsters and newly bought players attempting to make a first-team impression.  Are those players going to press and run?  You're darned tootin' they are.

Oh, I'm proud to be a Toffee! I'm just disappointed at the direction of some things, both within the team and the EPL in general. I've been a fan for years and years, and am happy to ride the highs and lows, though.  And I'm sure I've heard of your team. ;) Soccer is my #1 sport (well, neck and neck with baseball depending on my mood.) As much as I love the NFL, I could never love it quite as much as those two sports.

   I think it’s possible that you maybe don’t know what a toffee is in England.

Heathbar is a very underrated cant bar to be fair. I used to always trade my friends for them when I was a kid during Halloween because none of them wanted them.

Ordered 3 seats in Section 314 yesterday!

Liverpool over Roma 5-2 going to the return leg in Rome.  Roma is down 3 goals so they have no choice but to attack in the next leg and when they do that its going to create spaces for Liverpool's front 3.  Is Liverpool gonna go to Kiev?

Nice.

I like to be lower-level, but I also like to be high enough for a little perspective.  I'm on row 7 in Section 314.  From the looks of the seating chart, 314 is opposite side of the team benches (which I wanted since I like to face the bench).

Edit: And our boy, Oxlade-Chamberlain, is out for the rest of the season and for the World Cup with the knee injury he incurred in the Roma match yesterday.  Dammit dammit dammit, Klopp had thus far developed him into an impactful AM too.  :(
