Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers admits the team are back in a period of transition similar to when he first arrived at Anfield and accepts there will be more pain to come before things pick up again.

The departure of striker Luis Suarez, integrating a raft of summer signings and injuries to a number of players have all contributed to a difficult start to the campaign.


They have yet to reach anything close to the blistering form they displayed in the second half of last season having won just twice in the league and scored only eight times in six matches.


Of greater concern is their defensive weakness with just one clean sheet in nine outings this season and only two in their last 18 games, which incorporates their scintillating displays which took them to a runners-up place in May.


Rodgers denied, however, he was facing the biggest challenge of his managerial career after expectations were raised following last season's second place.


"No, not really. It's an exciting challenge. This is an incredible job and nothing has changed," he said.


"The first six months were difficult here but for 18 months we've been on a magic carpet ride in terms of our performance level and everything improving.


"For me it would have been a case of keeping the squad we had and adding a few bodies to thicken up the squad.


"But that wasn't the case. There was big change here in the summer and we lost a world-class player (when Suarez was sold to Barcelona).


"We had to improve the squad and bring in a number of players and unfortunately we've lost a number of our key players to injuries.


"It brings us into a little period of transition again.


"It's something that was difficult in the first few months when I got here.


"You have to go through some pain along the way. We are in a difficult moment but that's the great challenge for myself and the players.


"We will look at it even harder and analyse it more just to ensure we keep it simple and keep to the values and ethics of this team – hard work, honesty and concentrating on our performance."


On Saturday Liverpool host West Brom, who were Rodgers' first opponents when he took over in the summer of 2012.


"There are similarities in that it feels like a new group again," he added.


"I'm not here to whine or complain about injuries. We just need to get on with working hard and go back to core principles which our good performances and wins were all about.


"The job now is similar to then in terms of need to integrate all of that to create winning performances."


Injuries have significantly restricted Rodgers' options this season, particularly up front where the absence of Daniel Sturridge with a thigh injury for a month, has left B£16million summer signing Mario Balotelli isolated in more ways than one.


The Italy striker has scored just one goal, against Bulgarian minnows Ludogorets, since arriving and has struggled to reproduce the form he showed for Manchester City when he first came to the Premier League.

When Sturridge returns Rodgers will have the opportunity to play his preferred diamond formation with two up front but until then he has mainly stuck to a 4-2-3-1 set-up.


"It's with the players that we have. I think once I get the injured players back it will give me more flexibility," said the Reds boss.


"I think the idea at this moment is to keep it as simple as we can for the players so the team can be as cohesive as we possibly can be.


"Once I get other players back who can adapt to play in a number of positions then it makes it a bit more flexible for me."


With Emre Can's injury and Philippe Coutinho's loss of form, midfield is an area in which Liverpool have struggled and an injury to Joe Allen on international duty a month ago has left Rodgers effectively choosing five players from seven he has available.


Allen's absence has been particularly felt.


"He's a player who never gets mentioned but he's a player who rarely turns over the ball. He loves the football and gets other people playing," said the manager.


"The key feature for Joe on top of that is the intensity in his pressure.


"He's an intelligent footballer. Tactically he's outstanding and we've really missed his energy and his quality since he's been out.


"He will be back after the international break. Hopefully he'll be available for the QPR game."

Brendan Rodgers on “exciting challenge” as boss admits Reds are “in transition”

Brendan Rodgers’ men host West Brom on Saturday afternoon in Liverpool’s first 3pm kick off of the season – a game in which the Reds will be looking to start the turnaround of their recent struggles.

Liverpool will be looking to end a poor patch of form in all competitions on Saturday when they take on an in-form West Bromwich Albion team at Anfield, as the Reds look to improve dramatically on the winless month of league games played out in September.


Rodgers’ side continue to struggle both offensively and defensively, and the characteristics associated with the philosophy the Northern Irishman has installed at the club have all seemingly been forgotten with performance unrecognisable to date – Tottenham away aside.


As a result of the combination of bad displays and results, the Liverpool boss is under the first genuine spell of pressure since arriving, and how he and his team respond to the tough period could be the making or breaking of both players and staff alike.


While injuries from the dreaded international break have played a significant part in the derailing of the team and disrupted any rhythm that was being found, performances have not been good enough considering the quality still at the managers’ disposal.


LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND - Sunday, August 17, 2014: Liverpool's Daniel Sturridge in action against Southampton during the Premier League match at Anfield. (Pic by David Rawcliffe/Propaganda)


Serious questions will be asked if the Reds’ form doesn’t improve drastically in the very near future and Rodgers’ team will be looking to begin the turn-around starting on Saturday afternoon against Alan Irvine’s Baggies, but the Ulsterman is unlikely to be able to implement many changes to his under-performing side.


The Team


Daniel Sturridge’s importance to Liverpool has been illustrated perfectly during the spell of his absence and all the attention in the build up to the match will be over the England internationals’ availability for the game.


Rodgers’ has previously spoken of Saturday’s game being the most realistic target for a comeback for Sturridge but he admitted he will have to “wait and see” how the situation develops. Even if the born goal-scorer is able to make a return to the set-up, it’s likely to only be with a space on the bench as match fitness and sharpness is sure to be in short supply for the goal machine.


Mamadou Sakho and Spanish midfielder Suso are the most recent additions to the injury list – with the Frenchman suffering a thigh strain and the youngster a groin injury – as the Liverpool squad takes its total amount of injuries to seven.


Joe Allen, Emre Can, Glen Johnson and Jon Flanagan are the rest of those unavailable players and with that, Rodgers’ is limited in his ability to freshen up and make adjustments to his team.


Therefore, Mignolet and three of the back four are set to stay as they are, but Alberto Moreno will be hoping to be recalled to the starting team ahead of Jose Enrique who was the managers’ preferred option on the disappointing night in Switzerland.


Steven Gerrard, Jordan Henderson and Philippe Coutinho remain the only genuine midfield options for Rodgers and all three are likely to continue in the starting team on Saturday.


Football - FA Premier League - Liverpool FC v Everton FC


Adam Lallana will be hopeful of receiving a recall to the starting XI for the clash and if so, it should come at the expense of Lazar Markovic who produced an indifferent display against Basel on Wednesday.


With no Sturridge, the under-fire Mario Balotelli is set to continue up front, but Rodgers has a decision to make over whether that is on his own or in a two man partnership, with Fabio Borini the only genuine natural striking option.


The Line Up


Liverpool have struggled with the rigid 4-2-3-1 formation deployed in recent weeks, and in order to win the midfield battle and help protect Gerrard’s legs, Rodgers must switch to a three man midfield, if not the highly successful diamond.


LONDON, ENGLAND - Sunday, August 31, 2014: Liverpool's Alberto Moreno celebrates scoring the third goal against Tottenham Hotspur during the Premier League match at White Hart Lane. (Pic by David Rawcliffe/Propaganda)


The back four picks itself currently with Moreno coming back into the team ahead of Enrique but the Liverpool boss has two options for his midfield. Firstly, a three man centre in a 4-3-3 shape allows for the captain to be assisted by Henderson and Coutinho or secondly, in a four man midfield with Lallana added at the top of the diamond.


If playing a three man attack, Lallana, Sterling and Balotelli is the pick, but if a two man strike partnership is chosen, Sterling should partner the Italian with Borini having not taken the opportunities given and Lambert a fourth choice striker and nothing more.


With those changes, Liverpool should line up like this on Saturday (4-3-3):


4-3-3 wba


Alternatively, the Liverpool manager could switch back to the successful 4-diamond midfield-2 in which Liverpool should look like this:


WBA Diamond


If Sturridge makes a miraculous recovery and is fit enough to play from the start, this is how the Reds should line up:


wba diamond sturridge


Saturday has become a more important fixture than previously thought and if the Reds leave Anfield without a positive performance and result, pressure will continue to mount.


A regroup over the looming international break is needed, but before evaluations and inquests are held during the international fortnight, Liverpool must return to winning ways in game that presents a big opportunity for the Reds to do so.

Marek Hamsik: Happy at Napoli according to his agent


Marek Hamsik: Happy at Napoli according to his agent




Speculation of a move away from Napoli for Marek Hamsik has been played down, with the player’s agent insisting he is happy with the Serie A club.


The Slovakia playmaker has been linked with a number of European sides, with Liverpool tipped as leaders in the race to sign the 27-year-old in January.


Hamsik has been an influential force under former Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez at Napoli, registering a double-digit goal tally in all but one of his seasons with the Italian club.


However, reports suggest Napoli are set for wholesale changes in January meaning the 71-cap international could be on the market, although his agent insists he is settled at the Stadio San Paolo.


"Marek could be sold whenever he wants, but while he feels good at Napoli we don't need to take into consideration any other options", Juraj Venglos told Sky Sport Italia.


The agent added: "Should he decide he wants to move, things will change. But at the moment Marek feels good at Napoli.”


Hamsik is in line to make his fifth Serie A appearance of the season on Sunday as Napoli host Torino.

Daniel Sturridge: Hoping to shake off an injury in time


Daniel Sturridge: Hoping to shake off an injury in time




Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers will wait to see whether Daniel Sturridge is fit enough to be involved against West Brom.


The striker has missed six matches with a thigh strain and while he is edging closer to full fitness he has been left out of England's 2016 qualifiers due to his lack of action.


Defenders Glen Johnson and Mamadou Sakho (both thigh), Jon Flanagan (knee), midfielders Joe Allen (knee) and Emre Can (ankle) are all unavailable.


Silvestre Varela is out of West Brom's trip to Merseyside as the club assess whether he needs hernia surgery.


The Baggies are liasing with the winger's parent club Porto to see if Varela needs to go under the knife.


Strikers Brown Ideye (ankle) and Victor Anichebe (groin) are also sidelined meaning four-goal Saido Berahino will lead the line and Chris Baird is fit again after illness.
