Rafael Benitez will welcome his European heroes Liverpool back for pre-season training at Melwood today as the Reds set about their preparations for what is sure to be a hectic 2005/2006 campaign.
Liverpool will be preparing for the defence of their Champions League crown when they face Welsh league and cup double winners Total Network Solutions in the first qualifying round.

Benitez wants a better showing in the Premiership and will be working as hard as ever to reinforce his squad for the season ahead.

It is not known at the moment whether Liverpool will be still be going to a training camp in Switzerland as the Champions League qualifiers are so close together before the start of the Premiership season.

Benitez said: "We've told the players our idea is to start pre-season on June 27 at Melwood.

"We need to train harder at the start and change the culture of pre-season here. If we sign new players after June 27, they will have to start afresh.

"But I want all the players to show the right mentality from the very beginning of pre-season and this will make it easier for them throughout the rest of the year. I'm sure you will see a fitter, stronger Liverpool this season."

I have a question for fellow LFC fans. I am in Switzerland for the summer and I'd like to see the Reds in training if they come for the camp. Does anyone know where the camp is held in Switzerland?
