Spanish coach Rafael Benitez has spent the best part of 20 million pounds on adding goals to a side who scored only nine in a run of 14 games midway through last season. Craig Bellamy should provide the pace and finishing while Jermaine Pennant can deliver the crosses from the right flank -- allowing skipper Steven Gerrard to revert to his preferred slot in central midfield.

If Benitez's side continue to improve they look a good bet for second place -- particularly if Manchester United prove inconsistent. That would be the limit of Liverpool's domestic chances as Chelsea still seem to be in a league of their own.

Some of you did it during the World Cup in Germany. The English Premier League too provides a chance for you to tell the world what you think about the players and teams in the world's most popular football league.

Next, pick your password, fill in a small form that talks you through your school, your college, your interests.

Why do we want information about where you went to school, and what you like besides football?

Glad you asked -- Connexions is all about, you guessed it, making connections.
