Liverpool FC – Iago Aspas Can Become a Starter Sooner Than Predicted
When Liverpool signed Iago Aspas this summer, it was quite questionable how quickly, if at all, the Spanish forward will find himself in the lineup. Closer and closer to the Premier League kick off, and things are looking better and brighter for him and his prospects.

Liverpool FC – Philippe Coutinho on the Verge of Becoming a Star
The fact that Liverpool haven’t brought a dominant attacking midfielder works in the best interests of Philippe Coutinho, who just might continue to build on what he started last season after arriving midway through the season to the club, and become one of the best reasons to watch a match next season in the Premier League.

Liverpool FC – Philippe Coutinho Needs to be Just as Good Next Season
The final day of the season was mostly about Jamie Carragher, getting a proper sending off from the Liverpool fans at Anfield, but it was also about a little taste of the future, which might be brighter than the slightly disappointing present. Philippe Coutinho might be in the center of that tomorrow due to his ability since arriving in January, hoping he’ll pick off in a few months right where he left off.

Liverpool FC – Brendan Rodgers Doesn’t Need to Make Too Many Changes
From pessimism early on, to fierce optimism later, and a more realistic approach as Liverpool end the 2012-2013 season without a European spot clinched for next season. And still, Brendan Rodgers has plenty of attacking talent on the team: Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge, Philippe Coutinho and others, which leaves him in need of a less than drastic change to push Liverpool a little bit higher next season.

Liverpool FC – Philippe Coutinho & Daniel Sturridge Look Like They’re Having Fun
Too little, and probably late as well. If Daniel Sturridge and Philippe Coutinho would have been playing for Liverpool since the start of the season, maybe things would have ended differently. A couple of spots higher in the table and European football next season. There’s plenty of promise to a side that has looked depressed at times during the campaign, and missed out on a happier finish for it.

Liverpool FC – Philippe Coutinho & Daniel Sturridge Can’t Explode Every Week
A Merseyside derby used to be a fiery affair with red cards and injured players scattered across the pitch. Times have changed, especially for Liverpool football club, about to finish beneath their city rivals for a second consecutive season, while all the talent in the world, from Philippe Coutinho, Daniel Sturridge and an energetic Steven Gerrard couldn’t give Jamie Carragher a nice farewell present, sending him off from the derby with a home win at Anfield.

Liverpool FC – Brendan Rodgers Can’t Succeed Without Major Spending
It felt like Brendan Rodgers was cheated last summer. He was left without a striker to backup Luis Suarez, and hat to wait till January and make it through a very rough start in order to see his team play to its full potential, although still lacking the consistency of those who look to finish in the top 4 of the Premier League.

Liverpool FC – Philippe Coutinho Makes Daniel Sturridge Look Unstoppable
There’s hope without and beyond Luis Suarez, and even a bit of it without Steven Gerrard. Philippe Coutinho still has some adjusting to do and improvements to preform, but his creativity and vision have already made himself one of the best Liverpool performers in the second half of the season, making players such as Daniel Sturridge and Jordan Henderson seem like unstoppable scorers.

Liverpool Destroy Newcastle in a Meaningless 6-0
Maybe Liverpool still believe they’re going to win the final ticket to the Europa League, but it’s hard to see it happening. It doesn’t mean they can’t have fun in the final days of the season, thrashing Newcastle 6-0 at St. James’ Park, with Daniel Sturridge scoring twice, as the presence of Luis Suarez wasn’t missed. The biggest win in the Brendan Rodgers era also saw goals from Jordan Henderson (two goals), Daniel Agger and Fabio Borini.

Liverpool FC – Daniel Sturridge Helps Luis Suarez When it Comes to Football
Something isn’t working for Liverpool lately, and things could get worse if Luis Suarez does get hit with a meaningful suspension for biting Branislav Ivanovic, adding yet another black mark to his sketchy resume, making you often forget what a wonderful footballer he is, combining with Daniel Sturridge for a fantastic second half display.
