[u]永遠的隊長──謝勒[/u]
■謝勒以201進球成為聖詹姆斯公園史上第一高效射腳，不禁樂開了懷。（法新社檔案照）(放大)
謝勒小檔案
球員名稱：Alan Shearer
國藉：英格蘭
出生日期：13/8/70
年齡：35歲
身高：5尺11寸
出生地點：紐卡索
司職：前鋒
球會／國家隊球衣號碼：9
曾效力球會：南安普敦（1988至1992年）、布萊克本（1992至1996年）、紐卡索（1996年至?）
代表國家隊場數及進球：63場（31球）
個人榮譽
英超冠軍：1994/95賽季（布萊克本）
英超最佳球員：1994/95及1996/97賽季
英超神射腳得主：1994/95賽季（34球）、1995/96賽季（31球）、1996/97賽季（25球）。
紐卡索第一射腳：201球
謝勒201球相關數據
聯賽：143球
足總杯：21球
聯賽杯：7球
歐洲賽場：30球
自從謝勒1988年在南安普敦以極之搶鏡的姿態闖進英格蘭甲組足球聯賽時（1992年才成立英超），他的足球生涯就平步青雲。一直到當上英格蘭國家隊隊長後，他更被認為是英格蘭近代最出色的前鋒殺手之一。
在1988年4月，當時只有17歲的謝勒在他首場對阿申納的超級聯賽中射進3球，使他成為英超有史以來做出帽子戲法的最年青球員，謝勒因此一炮而紅。
自此，謝勒就一直以出色的表現為英格蘭21歲以下國家隊效力。
在1992年加盟布萊克本後，謝勒的表現更是一飛沖天，他在代表布萊克本的138場聯賽中射入112球，期中連續3季都能射入30球以上，創新紀錄。
在1994/95賽季，謝勒更以34個入球替布萊克本奪得等待了81年的英超冠軍，風頭一時無兩。
雖然布萊克本在之後一季的表現走樣，但謝勒穩定的表現，成功令他連續兩季成為聯賽神射腳。
奇雲基根慧眼識英雄
紐卡索當時的領隊奇雲基根慧眼識英雄，以破世界紀錄轉會費的1500萬英鎊（約9762萬1500令吉）將他帶回自己的家鄉。
雖然紐卡索當年在聯賽功虧一簣，但謝勒繼續發揮他的射腳本色，在傷患困擾下仍能連續3季成為神射腳，奠下日後成為英超史上入球紀錄保持者的基石。
由於謝勒兩腳皆能開弓，而且頭球攻門不弱，所以很快便成為國家隊主力。
國家隊歷來最佳20位射腳
1996年，他更憑歐錦賽的超級表現（5場射入5球成為該屆神射腳）成為國家隊歷來最佳的20位射腳之一。
雖然謝勒沒有羅納汀荷那種細膩腳法，亦沒有巴基奧那些致命轉送，但他那努力以赴、永不言敗的精神，在球會及國家隊中，產生出極大作用。
盡管謝勒已在2000年退出國家隊，但在所有球迷心目中，謝勒卻是英格蘭國家隊永遠的隊長。
2006年2月4日，謝勒又再創造神話。他在當天代表喜鵲對壘樸次茅斯時，攻進個人在紐卡索的第201個進球，刷新了前輩米爾伯恩所保持的200球紀錄，成了紐卡索主場聖詹姆斯公園史上的第一高效射腳，名流青史。
[u]紅軍靈魂──傑拉德[/u]
■傑拉德180度轉變，決定留效紅軍。讓覬覦已久的切爾西挖角失敗。(放大)
傑拉德小檔案
英文名：STEVEN GERRARD
出生日期：1980年5月30日
年齡：25歲
國籍：英格蘭
身高：186公分
體重：88公斤
球衣：8號
效力球會：利物浦
位置：中場
奇蹟，總是伴隨紅軍利物浦。
2005年5月25日在土耳其首都伊斯坦堡，紅軍落後3球反勝AC米蘭，奪取歐洲冠軍杯。一個半月後，又一部逆轉大戲在晏菲上演。
相同的是，兩次的主角都是傑拉德。表示希望離開利物浦的隊長，再次作出完全相反的表態。和去年夏天一樣，傑拉德在最後關頭拒絕切爾西的邀請。
傑拉德接受《利物浦回聲報》獨家訪問時表示，“我將與利物浦續約，我已將未來交給球會，希望所有的謠言就此消失。我願意讓大家知道，在新合同裡，將不會有任何關於提前解約的附加條款。希望所發生的不愉快，今後再也不會出現。”
最後關頭續約
事態的進展足以讓人目瞪口呆。之前傑拉德通過經紀人告訴利物浦，不會接受為期4年、週薪10萬英鎊（約67萬7000令吉）的續約，並希望離開晏菲。
當傑拉德與利物浦的續約談判陷入僵局時，對紅軍隊長覬覦已久的切爾西，向利物浦提交3200萬英鎊（約2.24億）的轉會報價。聯系前後發生的一切，球迷一致認為傑拉德走定了。
事實上，傑拉德也承認，最後的決定來自激烈的思想鬥爭。
“我用整整一天來反思我轉會決定，結果越想就越覺得無法離開。這是屬於我的球會。我知道有人會把我看作‘叛徒’，但我一度無從選擇。幸好最終作出正確決定，這也是我真正想作的決定。”
“走與不走是我一生中最艱苦的掙扎，因為我曾經誤會球會已經不再需要我”。
與貝帥重修舊好
從8歲起便加盟利物浦的傑拉德，對自己回心轉意作出解釋：“這是我的錯，而球會也承認他們有一些失誤，然而這些已不重要，重要的是我們已經解決分歧，我終於可以做我想做的事情，那就是與利物浦續約。”
180度大轉折遠比贏回失去的人心容易得多。不過，當傑拉德向貝尼特斯表示經過“轉會鬧劇”之後，他希望退還隊長袖標，西班牙教練倒是堅決否定傑拉德的提議，這足以說明教練對傑拉德的信任。
Frank Lampard (CHELSEA)
Scorn was raised at his original £11 million transfer fee four years ago - but who’s laughing now?
Frank is the man who drives Chelsea on from midfield game after game after game. No-one of his age has enjoyed more Premiership football and no-one plays more at Chelsea. In December 2005, he finally missed a game with a virus and so brought to an end a new Premiership record of 164 consecutive appearances.
Ironically, Frank’s ever-present habit was one of the reasons why he was under-appreciated by some at the club that nurtured him. With Frank’s father the West Ham first team coach, sections of the support there cried nepotism.
Despite that, he was ever-present in the Hammers side that finished fifth in ‘98/’99 and was capped for England the next season. When manager Harry Redknapp and Frank senior were sacked from Upton Park, it was time for our Frank to move on.
After a quiet start at the Bridge, he has bloomed into one of Europe’s finest and in 2003/4, Frank’s phenomenal form was only beaten by Thierry Henry when the individual awards were handed out and he was well worthy of his place in England’s Euro 2004 team.
The performances continued to come as did goals, Frank firing Chelsea to the Championship as he top-scored from midfield with 13 in the League and 19 overall. He created more goals than any Chelsea player in recent memory and there was no-one more appropriate to score the magical goals at Bolton to clinch the title.
The Sportswriters’ Footballer of the Year (only the second Chelsea winner in over 50 years) and runner-up in the European and World Player of the Year voting for 2005, vice-captain Frank is as close to indispensable as you’ll find in modern squad-based football.
[u]藍調“鐵人”──蘭帕德[/u]
■打完全季比賽的蘭帕德，是切爾西的“鐵人”。
蘭帕德小檔案
英文名：Frank Lampard
出生日期：1978年6月21日
年齡：27歲
國籍：英格蘭
球衣：8號
效力球會：切爾西
位置：中場
蘭帕德已是切爾西的標誌性人物，上季幾乎踢滿全季比賽，而且狀態持續穩定。
在球迷眼中，蘭帕德是無所不能，無論是進攻還是防守，他都能完成任務。
3年前，把蘭帕德從西罕帶到史丹福橋的前主帥拉尼利就這樣評價：“只有蘭帕德不能輪換”。
不論是拉尼利或穆里尼奧，蘭帕德都是藍調的絕對核心。球隊流行這樣一個笑話，藍調在擬定出場名單時，“8號蘭帕德”可以事先印好，以免浪費筆墨填寫。
作為中場，蘭帕德的進球不遜於前鋒，全季攻入18球，成
了球隊首席射腳。出色的表現更讓他當選2004-05年英格蘭足球先生。
[u]英超最佳射腳──亨利[/u]
■隊中靈魂亨利在維也拉離開之後，接過隊長的袖標。
亨利小檔案
英文名：Thierry Henry
出生日期：1977年8月17日
年齡：28歲
國籍：法國
球衣：14號
效力球會：阿申納
位置：前鋒
連續2季獲得歐洲金靴獎，足以證明亨利是當今歐洲最好的前鋒。
1999年加盟鎗手以來，亨利每個賽季都保持高進球率。
亨利具備一切頂尖前鋒的要素，非凡的速度，敏銳的嗅覺，超強把握機會的能力，和精湛的腳法。
在維也拉離開海布里之後，亨利順理成章接過大哥袖標，成為鎗手新一任隊長。
Arjen Robben
Arjen became a symbol of Chelsea’s increasing power on rejecting a move to Old Trafford in favour of one to Stamford Bridge for the 2004/5 season.
Left-footed but able to play on either flank or as supporting striker, Euro 2004 provided a preview for Chelsea fans of the young international’s dribbling skills and dangerous crossing as he proved one of Holland’s most influential players on their way to the semi-finals.
Arjen played his first Dutch League football at the age of 16 for Groningen and was soon snapped up by PSV although he was loaned back to his former club for a year. A first international cap came in April 2003 and despite injury spoiling the second half of his last season at PSV, he recovered in time for Euro 2004 having already agreed to join Chelsea for the next season in March.
Unfortunately, a dreadful foul by Roma’s Olivier Dacourt in a pre-season friendly caused damage to Arjen’s foot, forcing him to miss the opening action at his new club. When he returned in late October his impact could not have been more stunning as his skills and searing pace cut teams to ribbons with goals scored in four consecutive games.
His arrival helped Chelsea hit top form and he was named Premiership Player for November 2004, already becoming one of the League’s top stars.
Unfortunately, two further injuries caused by over-physical opponents meant the first Chelsea season was not quite the crowning glory it once seemed destined to become. Arjen began the 2005/6 season fit but below par. As Christmas arrived, so did his best form. Defenders everywhere have dreaded the return.
• Born: 24 Oct 1985, Liverpool

Wayne Rooney
Wayne Rooney became the world’s most expensive teenager when he signed for United in a deal which could eventually be worth £30million.
The former Evertonian striker completed his dream move to Old Trafford just hours before the close of the transfer window on Tuesday 31 August 2004.
Wayne first burst onto the scene back on the opening day of the 2002/2003 season against Tottenham at Goodison Park. Nine games later he scored his first Premiership goal at the age of 16 - a last minute wonder strike which earned Everton a dramatic 2-1 victory over Arsenal.
Wayne’s talents were soon recognised at international level and he became England’s youngest ever player in February 2003 when he came on as a substitute against Australia at Upton Park. He is also the youngest player to have scored for his country at the age of 17 in September 2003 against Macedonia.
His reputation as one of the world’s most exciting young players was further enhanced by his hugely impressive performances for England at Euro 2004 in Portugal.
Wayne’s four goals in four games against Switzerland and Croatia, which included a stunning 25-yard strike against the Croats, were enough to convince Sir Alex Ferguson that he had to sign up the striker he had been tracking since he was a 14-year-old.
Following intense transfer negotiations with Everton, United finally got their man to the obvious delight of the Reds boss.
“I am very excited,” beamed Fergie. "I think we have got the best young player this country has seen in the past 30 years. Everyone is delighted by this signing”.
Wayne himself told ManUtd.com: ”I’m very excited to be here. As soon as I knew United were interested, there was only one place I was going."

He is a top, top class player," said Arsène Wenger of Robin van Persie shortly after signing him in the summer of 2004. The Arsenal manager has been proved as the Dutch forward goes from strength to strength.
Robin flourished towards the end of last season, scoring twice in the FA Cup Semi-Final win over Blackburn before converting a coolly-taken penalty in the Final shoot-out against Manchester United. He was rewarded with his first senior cap for the Dutch national side and is now a regular for his country.
Robin’s continues to progress at club level too. He scored on the opening day of the campaign against Newcastle and reached double figures for the season with a wonderful free-kick in the Carling Cup Semi-Final against Wigan.
The young Dutchman draws inspiration from his compatriot Dennis Bergkamp and has earned rave reviews from the Arsenal legend. Robin looks to have a bright future and could be a player to watch at this summer’s World Cup.
Jihai Sun
Squad no: 17
Date of birth: 30/09/1977

Position: Defender
Height (ft): 5.09
Weight (st): 12.02
International Caps: 61
International Goals: 0
Defender, Sun Jihai, though in his native China his name is reversed his surname being Sun, had been a target of City’s for several months. The Chinese international spent a week training with the City squad before agreeing the switch from his home club of Dalian Wanda in February 2002.
This is Sun’s second spell in English football having previously spent a couple of seasons at Crystal Palace before returning to China.
He made eight appearances for the Blues in his first season and was a member of the China squad in the 2002 World Cup. But the defender had little chance to impress on the world stage after he picked up an ankle injury in the first game and had to sit out the rest of China’s campaign which ended at the group stages.
Jihai then became the first Chinese player to score in the Premiership when he headed home the first City goal in their 2-0 win over Birmingham in October 2002. It was the first match in which he had played right wing back for the club. He continued with impressive displays in that role denying Shaun Wright-Phillips a place in the side.
He scored his second of the season for the Blues at Sunderland in early December during the 3-0 win.
With the arrival of Danny Mills at the start of the 2004/05 season the China international found himself acting as a utility player with roles in midfield. But in the 1-0 win over Chelsea in October 2004 his season was cruelly cut short.
Playing for the first time in a central midfield role due to injuries to Claudio Reyna and Joey Barton he was injured in a tackle with Eidur Gudjohnsen that damaged his cruciate and medial ligaments in his left knee.
Completed his rehab and returned to training by the end of the season without mishap. Went home to China in the close season and followed a specially designed training programme to build his fitness before returning for the start of the 2005/06 season.
Alan Smith (阿倫-史密夫)
出生日期︰ 1980-10-28
出生地點︰ 英格蘭約克郡
位置︰ 前鋒
號碼︰ 14
曾效力球會︰ 利茲聯
效力球會︰曼聯
阿倫-史密夫出生于約克郡，從小就在利茲接受足球教育，他也在利茲成為一名球星，在04年利茲降級後，他轉會到曼聯，那次充滿感情的轉會令人難以忘記。由于曼聯和利茲是死敵，因此兩者之間的轉會從來都很敏感，部分利茲的球迷對史密夫的忠貞進行了徹底地嘲諷，而一些曼聯的球迷也需要冷靜點。
但史密夫一進入曼聯就獲得了弗格森的賞識，他性格的每個方面都是弗格森喜歡的類型，他也用自己的行動表明自己配得上轉會費、配得上曼聯，就如他簽約時的承諾：“我會用在場上的表現和進球來贏得球迷，我總是盡可能地去做到最好，我渴望永遠是勝利者。我想曼聯需要我這樣的球員，來到曼聯，我也更有希望獲得更多的獎杯。” 史密夫紅魔初期的職業生涯就奉獻了兩個夢幻入球，在社區盾杯中和阿森納的精彩遠射、在超級聯賽中對陣諾維奇的凌空抽射，這兩個進球幫助他迅速贏得了曼聯球迷的心。在曼聯的第一個賽季，他在不多的出場時間中貢獻了10個進球，這也讓他成為球迷最喜愛的球員之一。
他有著堅韌不拔的性格，弗格森爵士舉出了很多曼聯歷史上的偉大球星和他類比，其中包括羅伊-基恩、布萊恩-羅布森和馬克-休斯等等。正是這樣的性格幫助史密夫在曼聯度過了初期的困難。在兩支高度敵對的俱樂部之間轉會，球員本身一開始就會承受超乎尋常的壓力，很多球員因此低迷沉淪，而史密夫的性格使得這些問題變得簡單。 史密夫的職業生涯起源于家鄉球隊利茲，在他成為一線隊成員後，他在球隊中的影響力變得越來越大。在他剛18歲時，他代表利茲對戰利物浦的處子戰中，他就有進球，當時的出色表現就表明史密夫遲早將成為一名球星。
史密夫也是英格蘭國家隊成員，在2001年5月25日英格蘭4：0墨西哥的比賽中他首次代表英格蘭亮相。他的第一個國家隊進球是在02年9月和葡萄牙的友誼賽中，那場比賽比分是1：1。史密夫在國家隊中現在還是邊緣人物，他渴望新賽季有良好的發揮，使他在06年的世界杯英格蘭隊中佔有一席之地，我們相信他能做好。

Steven Gerrard has grown used to the plaudits that have rained down on him since his Premiership debut in December 1998. ‘The future of England’s success’ is a strong claim to make about one player, but where Gerrard is concerned it is not an exaggeration.
Having graduated from the Liverpool Youth Academy, Gerrard is one of the most exciting talents in the English game. He is a midfielder that combines commitment, aggression, attacking instincts and the ability to create as well as score goals. In short, the complete player. But such is his versatility, Gerrard is also a regular at right-back.
Niggling injuries, owing more to his continuing physical development rather than any professional over-enthusiasm (6ft tall Gerrard was the same height as Michael Owen when he made his debut) have frustrated those who want to see him in every possible game for Liverpool and indeed England, but Gerrard Houllier remained determined not to burn out his star player by playing him in every game.
2000/01 was a season of achievements for Gerrard. Having starred in England’s Euro 2000 victory over rivals Germany, the young midfielder went on to collect Worthington Cup, FA Cup and Uefa Cup winners medals as Liverpool completed a tremendous treble. As if to prove his personal progress, he also picked up individual honours in the form of the prestigious PFA Young Player of the Year award and the Liverpool supporters’ vote as Player of the Season.
He struggled to find his form early in 2001/02, but he was instrumental in England’s 5-1 demolition of Germany in Munich, scoring the first goal. Injury problems once again meant that he was unable to make a regular impression on Liverpool’s season, but when he was available, he was vital to their push for trophies.
However, his season ended in disappointment as the Reds failed to emulate their previous glittering season and ended the season empty-handed. Dissapointment hit once more as a groin injury deprived him of a place in England’s 2002 World Cup squad.
After overcoming that groin problem, Gerrard went on to perform brilliantly during the Reds’ 2002/03 campaign, making 54 appearances in all competitions, and scoring 7 goals. He also featured heavily in Sven Goran Eriksson’s England plans, playing in 6 international games and scored his second international goal.
However, the 2003/04 season was dissapointing for Gerrard as Liverpool could only finish fourth in the Barclays Premiership. Having been knocked out relativly early in both FA and Carling Cups, a miserable season was capped with defeat to Marseille in the UEFA Cup Fourth Round.
Euro 2004 was to prove equally dissapointing for the hungry Gerrard. After a bad start losing a 1-0 lead to France in the last few minutes, England recovered briefly, escaping their group before eventually losing on penalties to hosts Portugal at the Quarter-Final stage.
The 2004/05 campaign, however, was to prove more successful for him. Despite constant talk linking him with a move to Chelsea and dissapointment in the Barclays Premiership (Liverpool could finish only fifth, behind bitter rivals Everton), he stuck with the Reds helping them to a memorable Champions League victory, scoring the crucial first goal in their return from three goals down. He was also a competitor for the PFA Player of the Year Award, although he lost out to England team-mate John Terry.
He played a crucial role in the England set up too, scoring twice as his country strived to qualify for the 2006 World Cup Finals.

Robbie Fowler made a shock return to Liverpool after Manchester City agreed to allow him to leave on a free transfer in January 2006.
The former England striker agreed an initial contract running until the end of the campaign, but Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez will review his situation in the summer.
“If I am honest I didn’t ever really believe I would come back,” said Fowler.
“But obviously since I left, deep down I have always wanted to come back and it has been a long time, but I am glad to say I am back now.”
“Leaving was probably one of my biggest regrets I have had in football. It will be nice to get back out at Anfield wearing the red shirt again. Just to walk back out the tunnel will be amazing.”
“You put on the red shirt again and it is just an amazing feeling and I am glad I am going to get that opportunity again.”
Liverpool born Fowler was born on April 9, 1975 and was brought up in the Toxteth area of Liverpool. As a youngster he was an ardent Everton supporter. While at Nugent secondary school he was selected for Liverpool Schools’ Under-14 team and was spotted by Liverpool scout Jim Aspinall. He began training with Liverpool once a week and signed schoolboy forms with the club. Two years later he signed on as a YTS trainee and turned professional in April 1992 on his 17th birthday.
Fowler scored on his first-team debut during Liverpool’s 3-1 win in a first-round Coca-Cola Cup tie at Fulham in September 1993, but it was his five goals in the second leg at Anfield two weeks later that made everyone sit up and take notice. That haul made him one of only four players in Liverpool’s history to score five in a senior fixture, laying early foundations for his development into a Kop idol.
Seasons came and went at Anfield and scoring records werer broken. Fowler’s statistics make fantastic reading. He scored his first League hat-trick against Southampton in only his fifth League game and his first 13 games for the club yielded 12 goals. A hairline fracture of his ankle kept the young striker out for 2 months in his first season, but he still finished as their leading scorer with 18 goals.
Fowler scored the Premier League’s fastest-ever hat-trick in 4 minutes 32 seconds against Arsenal during the 1994/95 season, then picked up the PFA Young Player of the Year award at the end of a campaign that also saw him receive a Coca Cola Cup winners medal. He was also comfortably the club’s leading scorer again with 31 goals, becoming the first Anfield player for six years to top 30 goals.
Despite being left-out of the side at the beginning of the 1995/96 season in favour of Rush and Collymore, he still finished as Liverpool’s top striker, scoring 36 goals in all competitions, and helping Liverpool to an FA Cup Final appearance. Fowler was rewarded with a full England cap in April 1996 against Croatia and subsequently played in the European Championships. He followed this with 31 goals in the 1996/97 season, though injury forced him out of the start of 1997/98.
Injuries have played a key part in Robbie Fowler’s career in the past few seasons and his goalscoring tally at Anfield never again reached the heights of the first few years of his Liverpool career. Nonetheless, he was made Liverpool’s vice-captain and, in the absence of injured skipper Jamie Redknapp, performed the leadership role admirably in Liverpool’s five-trophy-winning season.
Rumours of ongoing problems with Gerard Houllier and, in particular, assistant Phil Thompson were rife and Fowler was struggling for first-team football behind the preferred partnership of Owen and Heskey. Liverpool accepted a £12million bid from Chelsea for the striker in the 2000/01 season but Robbie opted to stay and fight for his place.
But then at the end of November 2001 his career was given a boost when he made the heart-wrenching decision to finally leave Anfield and join Leeds United in a deal thought to be worth £11million. Working with the likes of Viduka, Keane and Kewell was just too good an opportunity to miss.
Unfortunately, injuries and controversy again plagued him at Elland Road, and though he still had an excellent scoring record, he missed too many games to make a real impact at Leeds. So, when Manchester City came calling in January 2003, Terry Venables was happy to let them talk to Fowler.
However, despite agreeing terms and passing a medical, the striker stunned both City and Leeds by turning down the move at the last minute. Just over a week later, he changed his mind again, and agreed to the move, and finally joined City with just over a day left in the transfer window.
Kevin Keegan was hoping that Fowler could stay injury-free and forge a partnership with Nicolas Anelka which would realise his dream of a top six finish in the Barclaycard Premiership. However, with just two goals in 13 games, Fowler did not get off to a great start at Maine Road, and City were expecting much more for the 2003/04 campaign.
Things picked up for Fowler. His form improved as his fitness did and he ended up scoring ten goals during the entire season.
His 2004/05 season was more consistant as he managed a clock up 33 appearances and score 11 goals. However, his season will be best remembered for a missed penalty in the final seconds of the final game of the season againt Middlesborough. If he had scored it, City would have qualified for next seasons UEFA Cup. As he didn’t, 'Boro went through instead.
In the 2005/06 season, he made a brief return to form, scoring a hat-trick in a 3-1 FA Cup Third Round victory over Scunthorpe and the third in another 3-1 victory over rivals Manchester United, before he made his surprise return to his spiritual home.

Liverpool completed the £14million signing of French international striker Djibril Cisse from Auxerre in July 2004.
The highly-rated 22-year-old had agreed to join the Reds before the sacking of manager Gerard Houllier, but had no second thoughts about moving to Anfield.
He told the club’s official website: "A few clubs have been interested, but I always wanted to play in England, particularly for Liverpool because I first heard of their interest two years ago.
“They were the only ones at the time. I gave my word to Liverpool and I am a man of my word.”
“Liverpool will be at the top this season and to win the championship will be perfect. I am looking forward to my first game with Liverpool.”
Cisse had sat out Euro 2004 due to a suspension picked up from an Under-21 international, having netted 26 goals in 38 league games last season.
His first year at Anfield, however, proved frustrating. After a capable start, his season looked like it was over after breaking his leg in two places in a Barclays Premiership match against Blackburn in October.
After a lengthy spell out, he returned to action in several substitute appearances in the latter half of the season.
All in all, he made only 25 appearances, scoring 5 goals including two in the final game of the season as Liverpool beat Aston Villa 2-1.
He will be hoping for more luck in the 2005/06 campaign.
