Liverpool is having the worst season in the recent years. Their progress was hampered by some major injuries and few out of form players. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Joe-Cole-c18694 were injured during the season.
Steven Gerrard, the captain of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 international Gerrard was fit for the match against Fulham however Arctic snow wave postponed majority
of the matches for the last week.
Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson said, “Steven would have been fit to play on Saturday so it doesn't hurt to get some extra training in but what he needs now is to play some matches and unfortunately the chance to play was missed by our game with Fulham falling
victim to the weather.”
The manager further said “It is a big boost to have Gerrard back going into five games in 15 days. It is a season-changing period for every team in the Premier League.”
Gerrard was injured during the international duty against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Agger-c9884 is also set to return and play in the mid-season match. Lanky Danish centre-back defender Daniel
Agger suffered a calf injury and sickness since the last week of September.
Roy Hodgson commented on Agger’s situation, “He is running in straight lines and his work-rate and effort has been first class so it is now a case of when do we take the chance and say let's stick him in again.”
Liverpool are currently placed at ninth spot in the Premier League table. They have played 17 games so far and managed only one away win. They earned 22 points and their goal difference is -1. Five teams in the table are at 22 points, so the next match against
Blackburn can help them to climb couple of spots, depending on the results of the teams. The return of experienced duo will help to give a positive vibe throughout the camp and with half season still to be played, Liverpool will hope for better results than
what they have achieved so far.
