Hodgson: Liverpool working hard to keep stars

(GSM) – New Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson says the club is doing everything to convince their star players to stay at Anfield.

Steven Gerrard, Javier Mascherano and Fernando Torres have all been linked with a move away from the Merseyside and Hodgson is aware of the interest in them but says the club is working hard to keep them at Liverpool.

“We are working very hard on making certain the players we have at the club, who you would call the ‘good players’, are going to be with us for next season,” said Hodgson.

“The board are working very hard in that area. Some players are a bit disenchanted after what happened last season and we want to make sure we get that enchantment back.”
