Liverpool Football Club is the most prospering English football team since 1892, but it wasn't until 1959 that the team was re-organized for higer levels.
The re-organization worked very well, as they achieved the UEFA CUP in 1973. The 80's left the team with many League Championships.
Recently they acquired a strike-partner for their star Fernando Torres, Robbie Keane who comes from Tottenham.
As per Coach Benitez, he is looking for success with the dependable Gerrard in midfield, Albert Riera displaying available options and Robbie Keane taking a step forward.
Another point of review will be to maintain the defense as it is and avoid loosing points against their main rivals, as well as take the most advantage of the small teams.
.
Based on the Champions League, Liverpool has time after time evidence the ability to raise their game when it really matters.
