The Chelsea interim Boss stated “Liverpool is where my family live now.
“I have been there for six years and have very good memories.
“I cannot hide that I am really pleased to be going there to see a lot of old friends.
“The main thing is to stay in the top three and what I want is to win at Liverpool.
“And after, I wish them all the best and if they can win all their games until the end of the season, that will be fantastic.
“But as a professional, I am sure they will try and win and we will try win.”
Rafa also commented that he will one day return to Anfield for his second coming as Liverpool manager.

RUMOURED LIVERPOOL 2013-2014 KITS
![Picture](/uploads/1/9/3/8/19381931/159224058.jpg?474)
18th April 2013
These pictures have been released on the internet and are the most likely to be the kits for next season.
The away and third kits have had many negative comments and in my opinion, if these are to be the official kits then they will be the worst kits the Liverpool players have ever worn.

players out
There has been speculation that some Liverpool players MAY be on the way out whether it down to poor performances or wage cuts.
players speculated to be sold
- Skrtel
- Borini
- Coates
- Assaidi
these are the most likely but nothing is guaranteed in football. if players are sold at Liverpool football club then players need to be brought in to strengthen the squad, the players need to be mixed between world class and experienced.

Liverpool are favourites to sign Ajax midfielder Christian Eriksen.
Eriksen has noted alot of interest in the last year and is to be one of the top transfer targets for European clubs this summer. if he decides to leaves Ajax liverpool will be the club he is most likely to join. He has 12 months remaining on his contract and does not want to sign another contract with Ajax.
He is aware of Liverpool’s interest and looks to follow Luis Suarez's foot steps in a move to anfield.

Former red John Aldridge believes Pepe Reinas performance against reading was just as important as Alex Mccarthy's performance.
Liverpool fought out a draw away to reading on saturday with both goal keepers pulling off great saves to keep their teams level, Mccarthy had the most of the action as Liverpool peppered the Reading goal with shots.
Aldridge commented ''"Reading 'keeper Alex McCarthy got plenty of praise for his performance on Saturday, but I was also impressed by Pepe Reina's contribution''
He also added ''"For long periods Reina had nothing to do but his concentration was excellent.
"When Reina was called into action early in the second half he pulled off two really good saves''
"Recent results have been frustrating but the real positive has been the clean sheets.
"That's 13 in the league this season now and only Man City have kept more."
''Pepe kept us in for the draw, but we should have scored 3 or 4''

Suarez investigated
![Picture](/uploads/1/9/3/8/19381931/629371283.jpg?294)
Luis Suarez is being investigated by FIFA for allegedly punching Chile’s Gonzalo Jara in a World Cup qualifier last month. there are many opinions on the matter but FA think it is right to look in to it.
On the clip you also see that the opposing players grabs the Uruguans genital area and is believed to have made Suarez lash out in anger.
Are both as bad as each other???

Liverpool boss Brenden Rodgers believes that legendary Liverpool centre back Jamie Carragher can carry on for another season and still good enough to do a job at the back.
Brenden stated....
''Carra’s been fantastic and I do believe he could play next season. He and I communicate a lot and he’s obviously got something in his mind''
“We will sit down between now and the end of the season anyway and we’ll see where it goes. If he does go, I will certainly miss him because he’s been brilliant for me''
“He’s shown great respect and really helped me and the other guys''
“The thing for now is to keep performing the way he is until the end of the season and between then and now he and we will chat''
“This guy’s incredible. I want to put that on record.''
