Brand Liverpool key to the future
WITH new players of all ages and origins arriving by the bucketload, and new coaching staff in at Melwood and the Academy every time they open the doors, it may seem somewhat perverse to suggest that the most significant arrival at Anfield this summer may well be a backroom boy.
It’s highly unlikely that you’ll hear the name of Ian Ayre sung from the Kop next season, but the club’s new commercial director will have as big a role in improving our fortunes as any number of promising Spanish youngsters.
His main objectives, we were told by Rick Parry this week, will be to grow sponsorship and merchandising revenues, and spearhead our efforts to build the LFC brand in international markets.
Now I understand that to many of you this will seem to be the language of the mega-corporate, and will conjure up images of close-season trips to Korea, and rolling up to matches at our new Pampers Stadium in red-and-white novelty nappies; but, handled sensitively and with a sense of proportion, this ramping up of the commercial expertise within the club can only be a force for good.

Liverpool F.C.
Liverpool Football Club are an English professional football club based in Liverpool, Merseyside, who play in the Premier League; they are historically the most successful club in the history of English football, having won more trophies than any other English club.[1] They have won the most English League titles with eighteen, their most recent success coming in 1990. They are third in terms of European Cup[2] wins with five, an English record. They have also had success in the other cup competitions. They were a founding member of the G-14 group of leading European football clubs.[3]
Liverpool have played at Anfield since they were founded in 1892.[4] However, plans have been formed to start work on a new 60,000 all-seater stadium in the summer of 2007 near Stanley Park,[5] funded by the club's new American owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett.
The club's fans have been involved in two major tragedies. At the Heysel Stadium thirty-nine Juventus F.C. fans died when a wall collapsed after crowd trouble in the 1985 European Cup Final,[6] and at Hillsborough in 1989 where ninety-six Liverpool fans lost their lives[7] due to overcrowding.[8]

Torres set for Liverpool debut
Liverpool's record 20 million pound signing Fernando Torres is set to make his debut for his new club in a pre-season friendly in Switzerland on Tuesday.
The former Atletico Madrid striker, who has moved to Anfield on a six year contract, is expected to shake off a slight ankle injury and face Werder Bremen in Grenchen.
Manager Rafael Benitez said on Monday: "We had to wait for Fernando because he started training after the other players.
"We also needed to check his ankle but I think he'll be okay for our next game."
Torres could link up with former Bayer Leverkusen striker Andriy Voronin. The Ukrainian marked his first start of the club with a fine display in the defeat of Crewe on Saturday in a friendly.
Benitez said: "We know that Voronin is going to be another option for us. He has good game intelligence, he plays well between the lines and he has a lot of quality."
