Ronnie Whelan reveals Liverpool fears

Ronnie Whelan believes Liverpool must hit the ground running this season in their quest for silverware and a return to Champions League football.

Whelan, along with Jason McAteer and Phil Babb, were among a Liverpool Legends side which played a friendly against Drinagh Rangers in West Cork on Saturday.

Instrumental in bringing the famous Reds to Drinagh, Whelan fears his old club face a difficult challenge considering the number of players that have left Anfield in the last two years.
