Raheem Sterling enjoyed an impressive debut for England U21s during the 1-0 win over Serbia at Carrow Road on Friday night.

The Liverpool winger started the game and had some good moments during his 65-minute run-out on the left wing.

He provided a superb through pass to Thomas Ince in the first-half but the former Liverpool man was denied when clean through.

Stuart Pearce's side take a 1-0 lead into Tuesday's second leg of the European Championship play-offs after a penalty from West Bromwich Albion's Craig Dawson gave them the victory at Norwich City.

Jordan Henderson captained the team and played the full 90 minutes in the centre of midfield, and came close to scoring with a rasping effort on the stroke of half-time that flew just wide.

Liverpool Football Club today welcomed news that the Independent Police Complaints Commission and Director of Public Prosecutions are to launch 'massive' investigations into possible crimes committed in relation to the Hillsborough disaster.

In a statement released at 11.30am on Friday, it was announced that the DPP will review evidence relating to how the 96 fans died and their findings may lead to charges of manslaughter through gross negligence.

Commenting on today's announcement, Ian Ayre, managing director of Liverpool Football Club said: "We welcome today's announcement by the Independent Police Complaints Commission and Director of Public Prosecutions.

"This is another significant step forward in the campaign for justice for Hillsborough families and survivors.

"We will follow the progress of this investigation and remain resolute in our support of the families and survivors as they continue with their battle to bring those responsible for the tragedy to justice."

The statement in full reads as follows:

"The police watchdog and director of public prosecutions are to launch massive investigations into possible crimes committed by South Yorkshire Police and others in relation to the 1989 Hillsborough disaster.

The DPP will review evidence relating to how the 96 fans died. This may lead to charges of manslaughter through gross negligence.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission said it will look at whether there was a criminal cover-up inside West Yorkshire Police of failings by the force.

The police watchdog said the investigation will be the biggest ever independent investigation into police wrongdoing.

The Independent Hillsborough Panel Report disclosed potential crimes committed before, during and after the disaster, said the IPCC.

The parallel investigations will cover possible offences of:

Manslaughter

Perverting the course of justice by changing police statements

Perjury by officers who gave evidence on oath

Perverting the course of justice by misleading journalists

Misconduct in public office

The IPCC said that its investigation into an alleged cover-up would look at who ordered police officers to change their statements to remove comments that were critical of the police in the football ground.

A large number of current and former officers will be under investigation, including Sir Norman Bettison, chief constable of West Yorkshire Police.

The IPCC investigation will include examining the actions of officers from West Midlands Police who had carried out the official investigation into the actions of South Yorkshire Police.

There will also be a separate IPCC investigation into whether Sir Norman attempted to influence the decision by West Yorkshire Police Authority to refer him to the IPCC in the wake of the Hillsborough report.

The watchdog said it was now asking the Home Secretary for more resources because of the scale of the investigation. It said it couldn't put a timescale on the work which would only become clearer once the team had trawled hundreds of thousands of pages of material gathered by the Hillsborough Panel.

The decision by the IPCC is the first legal move since the report was published.

Families are also waiting to hear whether the Attorney General will ask the High Court to order fresh inquests. The panels report questioned the original inquest verdicts of accidental death, saying the coroner had not looked at all the evidence.

Background

Following the publication of the report, the IPCC described it as "detailed and rigorous" and that the Panel's findings had raised "extremely serious and troubling issues for the police".

Just over three weeks ago, the watchdog confirmed it had received a referral from West Yorkshire Police Authority in relation to complaints against Chief Constable Sir Norman Bettison.

Sir Norman was an off duty South Yorkshire inspector at the game and was subsequently involved in the force's internal review. Hillsborough families accuse him of being part of a cover-up in which 116 police statements were altered ahead of the 1989 inquiry to remove negative comments about the force.

Sir Norman denies wrongdoing and had said he will retire in March next year. He has separately apologised for a statement he made following the panel's report in which he said the behaviour of fans made the police's job harder.

South Yorkshire's current chief constable, David Crompton, says there should be criminal charges if police broke the law. Richard Wells, who headed the force between 1990 and 1998, says prosecutions are 'absolutely essential'."

A press conference was held at Liverpool Town Hall on Monday morning to reveal details of the proposal that will see Anfield and the surrounding area regenerated.

Mayor of the city, Joe Anderson, was joined by LFC managing director Ian Ayre, Mark Kitts and Ged Fitzgerald of Liverpool City Council and Kathy Cowell, chair of Your Housing.

Mayor Anderson opened the media briefing by saying: "We believe this to be an exciting opportunity for Liverpool, the area of Anfield and, of course, Liverpool Football Club.

"It's been something we've been looking forward to for a number of months as we got close to finalising arrangements of the partnerships with Your Housing and Liverpool Football Club.

"It's the two-year anniversary of the new owners taking over Liverpool Football Club. What we've been through with the club since then is developing what I believe to be a good, honest relationship and partnership.

"We have, of course, had to allow the club a lot of opportunity and a lot of time given the financial climate to assess the situation as to where they are with regards to how they believe they should move forward. From our point of view, we wanted that to be done as quickly and speedily as possible, but we recognised the club needed to assess the financials, look at the future and make sure it made the right decision.

you're a funny man kingofhearts.

everyone's clearly loving liverpool's slump of the last few years. if it helps em sleep at night then wonderful.

last night was painfully frustrating, but we'll get there. i hold a faint hope that the board and supporters will keep faith with rogers and see what he can do. it's not going to happen overnight, but provided we don't waste 100 mil on a few shite players again, we can start to try and build a decent squad.

Supposedly you guys are willing to pay out 3 million of his contract so west ham will take him on the free, understandably as 90k a week is a bit steep for someone like Cole.

60 to 59 in favour of manchester mate, not exactly a domination.

eighteen titles, seven fa cups, eight league cups, five european cups, three UEFA cups, three super cups.

behind arsenal we have the highest average league finishing position as well, if you want to include that too.

now how's your history looking?
