Liverpool owner wants Premier League title

Liverpool may have just sold Fernando Torres to Chelsea, but John Henry and the Fenway Group have taken over the running of Liverpool Football club with just one aim; to bring the Premiership title back to Anfield after a 20 years drought.

John Henry Henry admits that football is all new to Fenway, but that doesn’t change the business model. He said last night: “We have a unique skill-set at Fenway, and it is perfectly suited to breaking what they call curses – we had an 86 years drought at Boston for winning a World Series,” .

“We did that, and we have a 20 years drought for winning the first division at Liverpool. Liverpool has never won a Premier League.

“There was a very strong feeling amongst us that we were uniquely qualified to break the ‘curse’. Even though we didn’t know the sport, we knew the sports business and knew what it takes to put together a sports organisation.

“It gives me goose bumps to think we could deliver a Premier League title to Liverpool – it’s what we are there for, we have no other agenda than that.”

This could be great for the Premiership and make it even more competitive.

With Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, and perhaps even Tottenham, going for the title in a big way, the Premier League will remain the best in the world for a long time to come.

good to see the owners want what we want. Hopefully they will stick with Kenny and help strengthen the squad once again.

Hi Sam,

With Kenny steadying the squad and hopefully he'll be made permanent at the end of the season.

There squad still lacking the natural width from wingers on both flanks for a long time. This are the main area LFC need to buy in the summer.
