Considering it was a bunch of kids out there we completely dominated the 2nd half. Some of those kids are going to be household names in the future. Lamela was awesome and played like a leader something I've not seen him do before. His confidence is sky high. This is going to be a good season I think. People have written us off already saying we won't be able to recreate last seasons form but if we continue to play like we did in that 2nd half but with our first eleven then we could even eclipse last season I think.
Yeah i agree , we have not lost any players & the teams that are rebuilding cannot do it overnight. I really cannot see any reason why we can't match or even improve on last seasons efforts.Sadly i'm at work & haven't seen any of today's game but my son has text me to say Lamela was good in the 2nd half.

You would have thought 2 big clubs could get more fans in that stadium, I remember last year we filled it with 100,000 fans .... looks empty
You have a lot of fans in that part of world it goes back to the 60s and 70s when everybody couldn't wait to get out of Liverpool so they didn't.lionelf said:

Not sure I'd fancy paying those ticket prices to watch the kids team or fringe players.

& off course not forgetting all those great, great Liverpudlian grandpa's that were shipped out in the late 1800's would also add the Liverpool's down under fan base too.jammy_basturd said:
The tours that the more well known clubs make in these far flung places only serve to help increase that viewership. As I said, it helps.
It wasn't an official EPL tour though. It's not like the NFL, where clubs take it in turn to promote the brand in different countries.TEKNOPUG said:

Totally different business model though, in the NFL the teams are franchisees to the league, the league owns the image rights, the teams all have the same kit supplier and fans buy their merchandise from the league not the teams. We have a free for all and the premier League owns very little outside the 38 game season.JustinF said:
