stunning view. Be good to see this compared once the new Annie Road development is finished.

Always think it's shame that the cameras are in the Main, so you rarely see that gigantic erection on screen

Surely you've observed FC's gigantic erection? It can be seen from miles around. Everton had to prudishly block the view, though really it was out of jealousy. The had thought they had wood until they saw that magnificent escarpment of ecstasy.

Anyway my point was that the positioning of TV cameras in the Main means you don't see the Main in game footage, which is a shame as it's a splendiferous sight

Day 4 of pre season has begun. Trent's first day back doing team training.

Looks like he's using Mo's upper body workout.

I’m hearing a lot of ‘Taki’ in the training videos.

The lads all look so happy. Great start to this season!

Indoor session today for the lads it seems.

No Joe Gomez in there, if I'm not mistaken.

Samie · « **Reply #250 on:** July 16, 2021, 04:16:07 pm »

Joe and Virg are not doing double sessions yet. So I presume he did the earlier non televised one?

El Lobo · « **Reply #251 on:** July 16, 2021, 04:19:47 pm »

Virg is defo in this one

Angelius · « **Reply #252 on:** July 16, 2021, 04:21:34 pm »

Yeah, hopefully no setbacks or anything like that. Great to see Trent, Matip and Virg (and even Naby) taking part.

Apparently today's session took place at a diffrent venue. Kloppo not happy about the pitch used in previous days.

Pep's diaries on the official website have been interesting for those who haven't seen. Today's entry here: https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/438144-pep-lijnders-training-camp-diary-day-five-ibou-the-tower-and-uno

This part stood out to me:

"Yesterday, I also heard a story that Mo and Harvey Elliott were sitting with each other in the dining area. Harvey had some bread and some fruit on his plate and Mo asked him how many slices of bread he’d already had that day. Harvey said one and Mo told him to only eat the fruit! Harvey told me, ‘I’m always learning from these guys!’ We have so many players who are helping the younger players and the new ones – you feel all the way through this camp that the talents are integrating, and I like that a lot."

These are little things but matter so much according to me. Standards are set in these little things and a culture is subsequently formed. Great to see!

Bet he told him to go vegan too.

Mo just conned Harvey into giving him extra bread. Rookie mistake lad.

Well he is the greatest thing since....all that stuff around him. Knows how to use his loaf, does Mo. That's a whole meal he has to himself. Bet his mother's proud...

My favourite thing from the article is the bit right at the end, where he talks about the staff having a night off football to themselves and playing Uno.

Shows while it's about the football, it's not always about the football and sometimes just about the group together.

When Mo said he wants more bread during contract renewal negotiations, it seems he meant it literally.
