Liverpool FC; Are we going back to Europe?

Damn right we are, and it is at all possible it will be because of this upcoming season.

Why now, and what is different?

Now, because everything has changed and an old philosophy has returned. The old philosophy is the pass and move football of the past has returned. Pressure is being mounted in the opposition end of the field, defending is taking place high up the pitch, and possession is treasured and maintained, not just (always) lumping the ball up the pitch. It is so good to see Liverpool play football again. Real football.

These ten goals just give us the faintest of memories of what happened in that distant past. In those days of yore.

In, now it seems, pre-history.

But the times are changing. A different field philosophy, pass and move, control and pass, patience. New players and revived careers. Brendan Rodgers has revitalized Henderson and Downing, he has identified the players and roles to move the squad forward (Allen, Coutinho and Sturridge [so far]), and has found, by hook and by crook, more goals for and fewer against. It is looking up. Way way up!

My name is Hal White.
