This Sunday’s pre-season friendly at Anfield against Como should be the biggest test yet for Andoni Iraola‘s squad. With the new campaign only a week away, this is the last chance to see the squad before they head to Newcastle.
The Italian side will no doubt arrive determined to test themselves against top-class opposition. For Liverpool fans, the main focus will be seeing how the tactical patterns are shaping up.
With another game behind closed doors earlier in the afternoon, expect to see a strong XI with all the key players either on the pitch or on the bench.
Iraola will likely rotate heavily throughout the 90 minutes, but possibly not as much as previous games, as he will be looking to see who can last the full 90.
While the final scoreline takes a back seat to performance levels, a convincing win and a clean sheet would make us happy and keep the armchair critics at bay.
