The 2022/2023 season of the English Premier League is nearing.
As such, top clubs are putting in all the work and effort to have the best season, part of which involves the playing of friendly matches.
A New Season, Renewed Hope
It’s that time when the football world stops and prepares for a new season.
Liverpool have so far played top friendlies in their preseason games, all of which are in anticipation of the new season.
Each team is getting ready with renewed hopes for silverware in the coming season, given the disappointment in the 2021/2022 season by many at the club.
Liverpool have recruited and may keep recruiting new players into their fold after the departure of their star men Sadio Mane and Takumi Minamino.
The new arrivals at the club are using the pre-season friendlies to fit into the playing pattern of the team, with Jurgen Klopp leading that task of drilling the players.
