HEYSEL REMEMBERED 23 YEARS ON

On the 23rd anniversary of the Heysel Stadium tragedy, Liverpool Football Club remembers the 39 football supporters who went to watch a European Cup final and sadly never returned.
On 29 May, 1985, the deaths of 32 Italians, four Belgians, two Frenchmen and one man from Northern Ireland totally overshadowed our European Cup final defeat to Juventus.

What should have been a joyous occasion turned into a nightmare.

No one will ever forget the horror that unfolded before our eyes that night and 23 years on let's all pause for a moment to pay our respects to those unfortunate victims...

STEVIE: MY EURO HEARTACHE

Steven Gerrard has spoken of his heartache that he won't be joining Europe's elite players in Austria and Switzerland this summer.
The midfielder capped a man-of-the-match display with a well-worked goal in a 2-0 friendly win over USA on Wednesday night, but England's failure to qualify means he won't be able to take such form into Euro 2008.

Gerrard said: "Not going to the Euro finals has been hitting home for a long time, ever since we failed to qualify.

"We are going to have to suffer that disappointment throughout the summer. We all wanted to be part of the finals and challenging to win the tournament.

"But we've got to prepare for the World Cup qualifiers. We have to put the disappointment we are feeling about this summer to the back of our minds."

One piece of business that will be sorted over the coming months is the permanent home for the England captain's armband.

Gerrard is a candidate alongside the likes of Rio Ferdinand, Gareth Barry and last night's stand-in John Terry, who bounced back from the anguish of missing a penalty in a Champions League final with a headed goal against the USA.

For Gerrard, the Chelsea man's show of resilience was not a surprise.

"I am so pleased for John Terry. He is a top guy off the pitch and also a great player on it. He is a fantastic footballer," said the Liverpool captain.

"Unfortunately for him, he suffered a big low in his career with what happened in Moscow last week.

"But we always knew he was going to bounce back. That is the type of fantastic character that he is.

"He showed once again that he is a fantastic leader. He has done it so many times."

Meanwhile, Gerrard believes England are starting to make progress under Fabio Capello but is aware there is still much work to be done before they are at the level they want to be.

He added: "This was another step in the right direction. We are pleased with the win and we have a clean sheet. We are getting a bit more used to the new set-up.

"We are certainly on the right path but there is still a long way to go to get to the level we want to perform at."

really hope either the Dubai Consortium or ShareLiverpoolFC succeed.
it will be good for the club to have someone who has the interest of the club to take control.
this way,we will surely move forward.

TORRES: I LOVE IT AT ANFIELD

Fernando Torres has spoken about his affection for Liverpool FC and said he wants to stay at the club for many years to come.
El Nino, who is preparing for Euro 2008 with Spain, was a record breaker in his debut season at Anfield when he beat Ruud van Nistelrooy's scoring record. His strike at Tottenham on the final day of the season saw the Spanish star become the most prolific foreigner ever in a debut season with 24 Premier League goals.

Earlier this week Rafael Benitez laughed off suggestions linking his star striker with a move away from Anfield and said the player is simply not for sale.

"It is an honour to be linked to clubs like Barcelona, Chelsea, or Arsenal, but I am not thinking about a change and I want to continue playing for Liverpool for many years to come," said Torres.

Reflecting on his debut season at Anfield the Reds number nine said things couldn't have gone any better for him.

"It's been quite easy for me," he added. "I have been able to enjoy every minute at a club where things have gone well.

"I have been part of a team where every player shares the same goals and where a player can rely on the support of his team-mates.

"I have also worked with a manager who believed in me. It was the combination of all these factors.

2 me,the equation is veri straight 4ward here.
Irregardless of hw much affection Fernando Torres has spoken abt tis club,it seems 2 me that he came here becos of Rafael Benitez.
If Rafa is around,i m quite sure that Rafa will try all means 2 hold onto him.
Likewise 4 Torres,he would want 2 work with a manager fr spain as well.
I still think that the americans doesn't fit into the equation here.
Bring on the $$ fr DIC.

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) -Netherlands winger Ryan Babel is out of the European Championship after injuring his ankle in training on Saturday morning.

Babel tore ankle ligaments and a scan showed that the injury will sideline the 21-year-old player for several weeks, the Dutch soccer association said.

Coach Marco van Basten did not immediately announce a replacement.

The injury came a day before the Netherlands plays Wales in its last friendly match before the European Championship.

Van Basten's team plays world champion Italy on June 9 in Berne to open its Euro 2008 campaign. It also plays World Cup runner up France and Romania in what is considered the toughest qualifying group at the tournament.

Many of us are looking forward to seeing him play in Euro 2008,doubt Van Basten will play him in the starting 11 though. Wish him speedy recovery & hopefully he is fit for the new season.

Depressing news indeed. I just hope he can be fit for the start of the new season for us. We will need to play in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League again so our season will start early. With us losing players to the Olympics, we need every player we can get.

I agree he may not be in the starting 11, just look at the names in the Dutch squad. Amazing. Even if he appears as a sub, the experience will help him grow as a mature player. I think Babel can be a very good player for us. The ankle injury is just plain bad luck.

It's 2.6854 according to MAS's website. So it's around $13,427 before transfer fees. I'm sure Western Union will charge some fees if you remit money to UK. You get voting rights I believe. Not sure if they will declare dividends but given UK's tax structures...

I think a lot of those who signed up are motivated by replacing the shitty americans and not profits. Their style of washing linen in public hurts a lot of fans.

glad to hear that Torres is very happy at Anfiled.
sad to hear that Babel will be out for several weeks.
oh yeah,hope he recovers in time when we start our qualifying for the CL.

we need to sign some new players to cover each section - defend,midfield and attack.

Ribery? That would be an exciting world class recruitment. Ribery on left wing, Joquim on right wing... Gerrard and Macherano in the middle.

Hopefully so if that is true. So far very quiet on the transfer market. Think everyone is waiting for the Euro Championship to concluded then look for suitable targets.

I think it could also be a situation where the targets dun want transfer dealings to distract them from Euro2008. Like Ronaldo, he only want to think of Real Madrid after Euro 08. Let's hope Rafa gets the $$$ he needs.
