Lyon and AC Milan. 

Ta lads!

[Boston always unofficial]

What time is the kick-off against Lyon, the site i was just looking at says it's 9 a.m eastern? That's the same time as the womens game against Leicester.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

What a glorious sight that is after so long.

Mané's Naby scoring, All around us, Kopites singing, having fun, It's the season, joy and understanding Merry Christmas, Everton.

2pm GMT.

[Hazell]

For the first time in a long time I am actually looking forward to us playing a friendly.

But 21st Dec can’t come soon enough

Yeah, it's really weird being in December and not having any games. Despite how our domestic season's going, can't wait to get started again.

Yeah for some mad reason they've arranged it at the same time which is a real shame.

Salah absolutely  focussed on his form, Kostas doesn't know if he's catting or cowing

Instead of calming and relaxing you, it gets you completely wired and wound up...

Day Deux

[Samie]

Darwin Nunez will join up with the Liverpool squad on their Dubai training camp on December 12, having been given a week off following his World Cup exploits with Uruguay.

[Dim Glas]

the ‘having the camp in dubai to make it easier for plaeyrs in the world cup’ was a load of shit really.  Being as none of them where ever going to be going straight to Dubai, and in fact, Darwin is the only one there who will join with the training camp anyway.

Such a shame they went there, no need for Liverpool to be having training camps in Dubai.  No excuse for it.

Didnt we have to pray at the shrine of some ruler in Asia during pre season? He apparently doesnt have a great track record either.

Cant remember which country it was, so I am going to say Zimbabwe.

Perfect weather.

Don't see anything wrong with it myself.

[Too early for flapjacks?]

Good weather, good facilities, away from UK media/fans, etc. Makes sense to me.

[El Lobo]

I'd like to think if I worked for the club I could find a place which isn't majorly far from Qatar with good weather, good facilities, away from UK media/fans....but without the human rights abuses of Dubai.

Doubt it, Jesus.

Don’t tell the Senegalese whatever you do.

Joe, Bobby, Millie, Kostas, and Adrian visited local children at the Rashid Centre for People of Determination in Dubai this afternoon.

Good luck with that.

[El Lobo]

Good luck with that.

Be a nice gig wouldnt it? Alas, the point stands. The location, facilities, whatever is a nonsense excuse.

I'm sure you have Google maps - can you share some suggestions with us?

[El Lobo]

Where we could have held a mid-pre season training camp in a country which doesn't have appalling human rights abuses...? But decent weather and facilities? Really? I dunno Red Berry. North Korea.

Its a shit decision. It doesnt mean we need to start whataboutting or suggesting the club or manager can never speak out on anything again but the fact remains...its not a good call. To say we've chosen it to stay close to our players at the WC is ridiculous, particularly considering those players are all likely to shoot off elsewhere on a short break before they rejoin the squad anyway (as Darwin has).

That's lovely.

Day Deux

who are those guys?

[newterp]

Didn't realize the Bobby was such a Mike Myers fan that he got a tattoo of him on his arm! But you know what - Austin Powers is funny in any language

You said you were sure we could have found a place "not majorly far" from Qatar that didn't have the human rights abuses of Dubai. I just asked you where that might be, as you seem pretty sure about it.

Oh behave!

And is that Chris Moyles under the elbow?

Cyprus 

But sure you focus on the important stuff mate.

don’t think that was even a big factor considering the players all where/are going on holiday straight after and most won;t even go to Dubai now. Sounds like it was used an excuse to make their poor choice palatable.   They could have done what they did in the past and gone to places like the Canary isles.

They were worried about bumping into Rob.

fair enough

We could've gone down to Aussie land where it's summer now. Training on the Gold Coast.

Lol. Let our moral compass take us to a country that has helped Putin and his mates launder blood money for the last few decades. Every country has blood on it's hands. Grow up.
