Some of the players meeting BR, is Agger and the English players that played in the Euros there?

Nah. Just some fringe players and the likes of Lucas and Adam. I think I saw that Skrtel said he's back on the 6th...? Not sure about those that were in the Euros.

It's going to be a bit of a broken pre-season, what with the Euros and then the Olympics. Then we'll have Europa League games thrown in there.

Agger wants to be a boxer.

Also - I hadn't seen this before, from 9th June - Alonso saying he was happy about Brendan Rodgers being appointed: http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/late...-gives-me-hope

[lol_this]

to be fair though he was about to sign for swansea until brendan went, then you guys almost hijacked the deal, so in all, spurs hijacking from you makes sense

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva says he feared for his career after surgery on his knee last December, but he is now hoping to be fit for next season.

The 25-year-old missed more than half of last season after an operation on his left knee, which he injured in a Carling Cup fifth-round win at Chelsea.

"To be honest, in a few moments I thought I couldn't come back any more," admitted the Brazil international.

“There is no need for me to be scared. Rather than stay protecting myself, I need to work on my head as well to come back and play the same way I was playing before.”

Lucas, who returned for pre-season training alongside team-mates not involved in summer international duty on Wednesday, added: "I think I am progressing very well in terms of the knee, strength and fitness-wise.

"I am working every week and trying to improve every week and the main target is to be fit for the new season, if not for the start then after a few weeks."

Lucas, who was one of Liverpool's standout performers prior to his injury, has undergone an intensive programme to regain his fitness, which included spending some of his time in his homeland working at former club Gremio.

He admitted to becoming frustrated during what was the first long-term injury lay-off of his career, but says he is now feeling much more positive.

"It has been very hard for me because I have never been out for a month, so you can imagine five months when I can't play and only watch the games," he said.

"The most difficult period for me was when I was on crutches for two months, especially the first four weeks after the surgery when the knee was swollen. I thought I couldn't even walk because the way I looked at my knee I felt scared.

"It comes through your head that you might not be at the same level you were before, but at the same time you see big players who had the same injury come back and be even better.

"There is no need for me to be scared. Rather than stay protecting myself, I need to work on my head as well to come back and play the same way I was playing before.

"One of the things which made me strong in the team was how aggressive I was in tackles and things like that, so I cannot lose that.

"I am confident I will be back at the same level because I know how hard I am working."

He's a smart lad is our Lucas, knowing he needs to be mentally ready to come back before he's physically ready. We missed him last season, he's miles ahead of anyone else we have in the middle of the pitch.

Didn't expect him to stay but I wonder how Arsenal will fare without him.

Would've been pleased had we signed him, but not a massive loss.
