International Lessons Learned from Liverpool

It might have looked like you were watching one of the more underwhelming fixtures of the season at Anfield, but blink again and it wasn’t quite the case.

There were five Liverpool players starting in the International Friendly on Wednesday night – six if you included Daniel Agger who was playing for the opposing Denmark team. Those English players of Daniel Sturridge, Raheem Sterling, Steven Gerrard, Glen Johnson and Jordan Henderson strode out of the tunnel at Wembley for a European tie that made you wonder why you weren’t a bit more of a Waterloo Road fan, making the choice of what to watch that night much simpler.
