Dear Liverpool Fans

The Premier League have released the 25-man - or mostly fewer - squads for all 20 teams in England's top-flight. Each club must have a squad containing no more than 17 players who do not fulfil the home-grown player criteria, with the remainder - up to a total of 25 - having to be home-grown. A home-grown player means one who, irrespective of his nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to the Football Association or the Football Association of Wales for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons or 36 months prior to his 21st birthday (or the end of the season during which he turns 21). Players under the age of 21 (for the 2011/12 campaign those born on or after January 1, 1990) are eligible over and above the limit of 25 players , which explains why the likes of Mario Balotelli are not listed at Manchester City even though he is a part of the first-team.

Reports emanating from England suggest Aston Villa winger Stewart Downing will officially put in a transfer request some time this week. The Sun understands that Downing has made up his mind on a move to Barclays Premier League giants Liverpool after learning about their serious interest in him. And despite having two years left on his current contract with Villa, Downing is determined to force a £20million move to Anfield, where he will be a part of manager Kenny Dalglish' rebuilding plans. After a terrible start to their campaign last season, Liverpool decided the change things around by hiring club legend Kenny Dalglish as manager, who immediately splashed out over £50m on strike duo Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez. The wily old Scot was also not afraid to blood a number of youngsters and hand them their first-team opportunities, and the future looks bright at Anfield. Already the club have landed England U-21 star Jordan Henderson from Sunderland this summer
