Reds on the attack

By Al Campbell
Saturday, 14th July 2007
Rafael Benitez has told supporters to expect plenty of attacking football this season.
Liverpool will play plenty of attacking football following the signings of Fernando Torres, Andriy Voronin, Yossi Benayoun and Ryan Babel says Rafa Benitez.

"It is clear that we have quality players coming in and normally that should mean that we will play better," he said.

"The best teams are proactive rather than reactive. We have been quick in the market and now hopefully we can be quick on the pitch.

"I hope we can play more like the way I want us to. Defensively the team has been good and we want to attack. We had more crosses and shots than anyone, but we needed to improve our accuracy. Hopefully, with these players the crossing will be better and so will the finishing.

"In Valencia we had three or four players who all scored between 10 and 15 goals and that's the idea here. If you have one player who can score 20 goals then that is good, but what if he has an injury? Also if the other teams know he is the only player who can score goals, it will be easier for them to control your team in attack.

"We feel that attacking wise we have a much stronger squad, and we will be able to score more goals with this group of players. We have players of quality in key positions, players who can change a game when we need them to. That will allow us to play more of the style of football we want to at Liverpool."
