Liverpool's Pre-season Tour | Fans in Bangkok are having a moment of their life

An international club-friendly game under normal circumstances is not the most inspiring of games I can find around me but when this game involves Liverpool and it's the first game after a very long time, you can always count on me to keep a tab on it and enjoy the game from buildup to post-match analysis. Haha.

The sea of football fans in Thailand are having a moment of their life because this friendly game will be played in Bangkok and Liverpool's squad have been there since two days ago. It's been a very interesting start to our pre-season tour and I like the excitement we are getting from it.

The fans in Thailand and Liverpool fans all over the world are very pumped about this game and it's been exciting to get consistent updates about the training sessions and every other thing that is going on over there.

That is one of such update showing an open training session held in Bangkok. I've never doubted how big a club Liverpool is but when you see the atmosphere in the above video and the number of fans that made an appearance just to watch the training session you will be caught in bewilderment. I just can't help but acknowledge (once again) the brilliance of this current squad and the pedigree of this football club as a whole.

To put this into context, an estimated 15000 fans were present in the stadium during Liverpool's open training section in Rajamangala Stadium, Bangkok. That number beats the number of attendance that can be recorded in many professional football games. It's massive!!!

Guess who we are up against in this friendly game;

Since this is an international friendly and a pre-season tour, you would most likely be expecting us to start by playing a club that is not recognised in world football. No way! Haha. This is so different! We are up against the mighty Manchester United.

Manchester United squad have also been in Bangkok for a couple of days in preparation for this game but I can't tell you much about them because... well, because I don't care about them. Haha. I see the sticks coming from Man United fans.

To be fair, I've always seen Man United as an elite football club. Their history in world football is massive. I believe this club should only be comparable with the top-top clubs in Europe, but their recent performance over the last couple of years is making people ask important questions.

I need to redefine who they are and what they represent at the moment because they have been a shadow of their past glory. Hopefully, their new gaffer, Eric Ten Hag, will be given enough time and support to (hopefully) whip the squad into shape.

Who are we expecting in this game?

For Manchester United;

I know for a fact that Cristiano Ronaldo will not be there because he is currently having a couple of unresolved contract issues with Manchester United. The young man is looking to make a move and I believe he will most likely choose to sign with Bayern Munich.

The latest announcement from Manchester United's camp is that Harry Maguire will remain as Man United's. This means he will be wearing the armband in today's game and I can assure you that Manchester United fans are gutted by that decision. They have had enough of the young man but the young man still has a lot in store for them. Haha.

I'm sure the whole footballing world is waiting to take the piss out of Maguire if he messes up as usual in today's game. Haha. Rashford, Lindelof, De Gea and other Man United players are expected to be in contention for starting the game.

Liverpool Fc;

Sadio Mane? Will he be there? Nahhhh... Sadio has found a new home. Same as Origi and Taki. I wish them all the best in their new home.

Aside from those who are already out of Liverpool, we have a full squad for today's game. It is also said that the new lads, Darwin Nunez and Fabio Carvalho, will most likely make an appearance in today's game.

Kick-off: 2PM (UK Time). You sure don't want to miss this.

Thanks For Not Missing Any Full-stop Or Comma
