Summary

Isn't it amazing what the return of world-class players can do for a team? With Alisson Becker, Naby Keita, Xherdan Shaqiri, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah thrown straight back into the starting line-up after returning to training, Liverpool rounded off their pre-season preparations with a 3-1 win over Lyon. The win went some way to erasing the memory of what was a pretty poor performance against Napoli at Murrayfield - and it does leave the defending champions of Europe looking in much better shape for Sunday’s Community Shield against Manchester City. We'll have much more on that on the Blood Red channel in the coming days, but this podcast concentrates on what went down in Geneva, starting with the verdict of our Reds reporter Ian Doyle, which is followed by Jurgen Klopp's press conference in full, in which the Liverpool manager discusses the the future of Harry Wilson, whose brilliant goal sealed the victory.*We now have a Blood Red YouTube channel.
