A big fan of there not being 100 subs on each bench.

Mainly so I don't have to type them all out.

I'd be very, very surprised if Jeremy Jacquet isn't lining up next to Virgil van Dijk at St James' Park next Sunday.

He looks brilliant.

It's Liverpool who lead 2-0 at the break.

Milos Kerkez whips the ball into the box and Liverpool have another corner.

Ronald Araujo is out warming up for the first time in Liverpool red.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him replace Jeremy Jacquet at the break. The Frenchman hasn't had much action this pre-season.

Into the final five minutes of this first half we go.

It's been a decent one. I've definitely seen worse.

And there is Jeremy Jacquet there once again to fling one of those long legs out to put the low cross out for a corner.

And now the Anfield crowd chants his name. He's won them over already.

Yan Couto slips a lovely ball into the Liverpool box but Jeremy Jacquet reads it and comes over to time his tackle well.

Virgil van Dijk rises high to reach the corner but can't quite make contact. The Reds captain stays up and very nearly flicks one into the bottom corner.

Dominik Szoboszlai seems to shoot but it's closed down. Rio Ngumoha is sharp to pick the loose ball up but Trevoh Chalobah turns his effort behind.

Interesting to see how Como get on in the Champions League this season.

They knock the ball around really well. Just like their manager used to.

Kaiki hits that very, very well from distance and it slams the advertising boards behind the goal.

Alisson would've been struggling if that was flying towards the bottom corner.

Jesus Rodriguez shifts the ball on to his left foot and fires one towards the near post but Alisson gets down well to palm it behind.

And now Jeremie Frimpong times his challenge perfectly in the box to prevent an almost certain goal for Como.

I know it's very early days in Jeremy Jacquet's Liverpool career but he looks to be a very tidy signing.

Alexander Isak is fine. Just a clash of knees.

Anfield holds its breath as Alexander Isak pulls up and rubs his knee.

Not what Liverpool want, especially with Hugo Ekitike injured.

The ball is loose for Alexander Isak and he's quickly on to it. He goes around Jean Butez at an angle and finds Florian Wirtz, who plays it to Dominik Szoboszlai but he can't hit the target.
