It was a great night! In terms of atmosphere, great but not quite as memorable as the MCG, I think 100,000 people singing You'll Never Walk Alone is going to be hard to beat to be honest. 

No complaints though, Suncorp is a great stadium (I think the one general complaint is that it can't handle heavy rain but that wasn't a problem last night).. Seems to be a great view from anywhere in the stadium and any rectangular stadium always feels closer once you've gotten used to the ring of fire. 

Football-wise, intensity was about what you'd expect for preseason. Good to see some of the new recruits in the flesh. Was impressed with Milner, and thought Ibe was good once he came on in the second half. Thought we were a bit lacking up front but hopefully that will change with Coutinho, Firmino, Sturridge and Benteke about to sign by the sounds of it. 

All in all a bloody good night! Would be keen to hear what others thought. 

I'm just about to head off to the Man City v Melbourne game. If Sterling makes an appearance I'll be sure to have a quiet word!
