Profile:

Liverpool are the most succesful club in all of England through the years. Before the Premiership began Liverpool were nearly unstoppable. Winning league title after league title. Now adays Liverpool haven't been winning title after title but they are very very consistent finishing in the top four most seasons. Many managers have come and gone at Anfield but since former Valencia boss, Rafeal Benitez came he has brought some top top class players to the club including the likes of Morientes and Xabi Alonso. He has also used the youths in alot of their matches. Liverpool have in their ranks probably one of the best players in the world in Steven Gerrard. He is the key to their succses and if he and Benitez can both do their jobs to the best of their ability I could see a very bright future for the club. Only last year they won the most prestigous tournament in Europe, The Champions League and that was in Benitez's first season at the club and few would rule out Liverpool of retaing their title this year.
