LOOKING at the stats for last season one thing quickly becomes clear, Liverpool didn't lose a game when both Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard started.
Injuries kept it down to 11 times last season but it was eight wins and three draws - including the 2-0 win at Goodison, the 4-1 at Manyoo and the 2-0 at home to Chelsea.
More to the point, there was only one game where the Reds didn't score with them both starting the match - the frustrating home match against Stoke when Gerrard had a good goal disallowed.
At the other end of the spectrum comes poor old Lucas. He started 11 games last season, and just five of them were wins. Six were drawn, netting a big profit from backing the draw every time the Brazilian started a game.
We'll go through the squad player by player before the season starts - so stay tuned . . .
