Couple of questions Ed's.

If Benteke signs before the weekend will he join the tour in the Far East?

Also will Coutinho and Firmino be ready for the start of the season or do you expect them to feature after a few games in?

Cheers

Thanks for the reply ed002, I think it would be important for Benteke to join the squad to integrate with players but understand how the jet lag may hinder the player. I'm guessing he may join them in Finland and away to Swindon.
Btw, our pre season games aren't exactly against quality teams. I would have thought we would have had a more competitive final pre season game!! What's your opinion on the pre season opposition?

{Ed002's Note - Typically the pre-season games are a mix of commitments that are paid for by sponsors etc. (for which many clubs including LFC get well paid), pre-season tournaments which are pretty meaningless and games which clubs throw second string players at. So some practice, a chance to try out new tactics and avoidance of injury.}
