NATHANIEL CLYNE HAS has tipped Liverpool to mount a challenge for the Premier League title despite Brendan Rodgers’ side finishing sixth last season.
Liverpool endured a miserable 2014-15 campaign and missed out on Champions League qualification, having only narrowly lost out on the title as runners-up to Manchester City the previous year.
But England international full-back Clyne, who moved from Southampton to Anfield for £12.5 million during the off-season, believes the Merseyside club can end their 25-year drought for league success this term.
“Two seasons ago, Liverpool were pushing and nearly won the league, so we’re not too far away and with the additions to the team this year, we are looking to push on again,” Clyne said.
“Hopefully we can push for the title this season.
“You can see with the team and the quality that we have got that we can have a special season.”
Liverpool begin their Premier League campaign at Stoke City on Sunday, having lost 6-1 at the Britannia Stadium on the final day of the 2014-15 campaign.
Hoping Alan gives it another year at least!! Although this year didn’t end well, he was amazing. Definitely has it in him to stay on and be “the wise old head” for all these young lads coming through the ranks.
Hope Alan stays a great player gives it his
Bernard Brogan loves to get his mush in the media lately
He’s only answering questions put to him by the media. What do you think he should do in that situation?
Andrea, if Bernard ignored the media I’m sure yaya would have an even bigger problem with him!!
He could not answer. Not like he’s being forced. Maybe if he spent less time talking to them and more time playing Dublin wouldn’t have been hammered by Donegal
You must be an expert, Steven? You should apply for the managers jobs when it becomes available. And to think we could have won the All Ireland this year if Bernard had just taken a vow of silence!!!
Ya the most important thing is they didn’t win it. They got beat out the game in a game that showed how overrated the golden boy really is
Yes Steven. 2 All Irelands and 2 leagues in the space of 3 years!! Hardly the yardstick of success, is it? As the guy in your photo might say, “D’oh” :)
Ps Steven, the most important thing from this years All Ireland is the fact that Kerry lowered themselves beyond the level of puke football. The purists in Kerry will loath how it was won. But don’t worry, Dublin and Mayo will keep playing the game the way it should be played. We won’t lower ourselves to the level that Kerry and Donegal have ;)
Yet none this year. Remember how Dublin were supposed to be unbeatable? Then again the only reason they lost this year was because they didn’t show up. Bernard said that so it has to be true. Not a good sign of dublins supposed underage superstars if they still need the two of them
No the most important thing is Kerry won. Also your 6 backs playing in position is puke football now? Seeing as that’s what happened Sunday, or did you miss that?
Can’t win it every year lad. Every 2nd year will do for me. Áth Cliath abú!!
The fact is annoys you so much makes it all the sweeter ;)
It doesn’t annoy me buddy. I’m a Dub, it’s not in our nature to be bitter!! Add to that that I’m sipping a pint in Dublin Airport right now means you couldn’t be further from the truth a chara ;)
Not bitter? Your comments would say otherwise
Shame to see this Culchie spite from a Kerry supporter, we usually get it from the counties that never win anything, most Kerry people realise they have no reason to be jealous of others success or sneer when they fall short. The only people claiming Dublin were unbeatable were the media and fair weather supporters.
Well said Gavan. Steven wouldn’t be representative of the Kerry people I’d know. I reckon he’s a kid who needs to grow up and stop being so childish.
