Merseyside ( /ˈmɜrzisaɪd/) is a metropolitan county in North West England, with a population of 1,365,900. It encompasses the metropolitan area centred on both banks of the lower reaches of the Mersey Estuary, and comprises five metropolitan boroughs: Knowsley, St Helens, Sefton, Wirral, and the city of Liverpool. Merseyside, which was created on 1 April 1974 as a result of the Local Government Act 1972, takes its name from the River Mersey.
Merseyside spans 249 square miles (645 km2) of land which border Lancashire (to the north-east), Greater Manchester (to the east), and Cheshire (to the south and south-west); the Irish Sea is to the west. North Wales is across the Dee Estuary. There is a mix of high density urban areas, suburbs, semi-rural and rural locations in Merseyside, but overwhelmingly the land use is urban. It has a focused central business district, formed by Liverpool City Centre, but Merseyside is also a polycentric county with five metropolitan districts, each of which has at least one major town centre and outlying suburbs. The Liverpool Urban Area is the seventh most populous conurbation in the UK, and dominates the geographic centre of the county, while the smaller Birkenhead Urban Area dominates the Wirral Peninsula in the south.
Steven George Gerrard MBE ( /ˈdʒɛrɑrd/; born 30 May 1980) is an English footballer who plays for and captains Premier League club Liverpool. He also has 91 caps for the England national team. He has played much of his career in a centre midfield role, but he has also been used as a second striker and right winger.
Gerrard, who has spent his entire career at Anfield, made his début in 1998 and cemented his place in the first team in 2000, succeeding Sami Hyypiä as team captain in 2003. His honours include two FA Cups, three League Cups, one UEFA Champions League, one UEFA Cup, and two Super Cups. In 2005, Gerrard came third in voting for the Ballon d'Or.
Gerrard made his international debut in 2000 and has represented England at the Euro 2000 and Euro 2004, as well as the 2006 World Cup where he was the team's top goalscorer with two goals. Gerrard first captained his country at the 2010 World Cup in the absence of regular captain Rio Ferdinand, who missed the tournament through injury. He was named again as England captain for the Euro 2012.
Brendan Rodgers (born 26 January 1973) is a Northern Irish former footballer who is the current manager of Liverpool.
Rodgers began his career as a footballer at Ballymena United before moving to Reading, where an injury forced him to retire at the age of 20. He stayed at Reading as a youth team coach before being invited to join Chelsea as the manager of their youth team in 2004. He was promoted to reserve team manager in 2006.
In November 2008, he was appointed manager of Watford, before moving back to Reading as manager following the resignation of Steve Coppell in June 2009. He left the club by mutual consent in December 2009, and returned to management with Swansea City in July 2010. The following year, he led Swansea City to become the first Welsh team to win promotion to the Premier League, and guided them to 11th in their debut season. In June 2012, Rodgers was announced as the new Liverpool manager.
Rodgers was born in Carnlough to parents Malachy and Christina, the eldest of five brothers. He was educated at St. Patrick's College in Ballymena. He played Gaelic football and hurling in Carnlough before taking up football when he was 13. He grew up as a supporter of Celtic.

Invitation to love again
Welcome to my heart, step into my love again
And you ready to love again
Welcome to my heart, step into my love again
I daydream about the first time
That I fell in love
I lived on a street called cloud nine
Among the stars above
And eve though you let me go
I never understood the game
For all this time I've cared for you
And still I have a burning flame
Invitation, welcome to my heart again
Are you ready, step into my love again
I used to watch sunshine on your lovely face
Our love was filled with emotion of a heated rage
But now that I have come of age
I recognize your quality
And now I feel deep down inside
That you were the one for me
Invitation, why can't we be more than friends
Are you ready, dance into my love again
Invitation, come on let the magic in
I can take a woman or leave her alone
Temporary lovers come and go
You're the only woman that I've ever known
Who's got me losing control
Oh, I don't want to dream about you
Or wonder where you are
Oh, I wish my heart could beat without you
But I have gone too far?
Chorus:
You say, I need you
You think that I need all the love you're giving
And I need you
'Cause living alone isn't really living at all
Never planned to make love a permanent thing
Keeping my emotions on the side
Kinda like my life just the way that it's been
Girl, I'm taking my time
Oh, I don't want to miss you baby
But that's the hardest part
Oh, I'm trying to resist you baby
But I have gone too far?
(Chorus)
Who decides which one we love
Or when we're going to fall
I don't need two hands to hold
Two lips to whisper
I need you
You think that I need all the love you're giving
And I need you
'Cause living alone... Ooo woah, yeah
(I need you, you think that I need)
All the love you're giving
I need you
Like the air that I breathe from an open window, woah
yeah
I need you (I can't let you leave)
African heartbeat, oh what a dance
African heartbeat, I wanna dance
Born in Africa, children of the sun
Walk upon this earth as the chosen ones
Guided by the light of an eastern moon
The fire of the dance is alive in you
African heartbeat, oh what a dance
African heartbeat, I wanna dance
Lion in your heart, eagle in your eye
Awaken to the dawn of eternal life
Let your spirits beat to a distant drum
Dreams of Africa, children of the sun
I will dream of Africa
Joy to the children, let freedom ring
My heart beats strong for Africa
Child of creation, the song of a nation is calling us to dance
African heartbeat, oh what a dance
African heartbeat, I wanna dance
Let's ride the wings of Isis upon the wind
From the valley of the kings where the dance begin
This will be your land, prince of ebony
Stars above the the desert watch over me
Let's sing a song of Africa
And raise up our voices and touch the sun
My heart beats strong for Africa
Joy to the child, the gift of the wild, bring light into this land
I dream of Africa, children of the ray
I dream of Africa, your time will come again
Beat upon the river, take my heart to paradise
Ashes from the fire rising high into the sky
Ancient song, take me back in time
We will dream of Africa
Joy to the children, let freedom ring
My heart beats strong with Africa
Africa, Oh Africa
Give your heart and spread the word of love right across the land
Africa, Oh Africa
Talking drums are calling us to dance
Send your dreams to Africa
Free as the lion forever more
Dreams are made in Africa
Sing a song of Africa
Hey you, keep giving up
Saying there's no way, to survive the day
Hey you, got to fight
Just to keep the faith, that's the only way
Come walk with me
Let your dreams find a new expression
Wake up your mind to a new direction
If you believe, just believe in magic
Then anything, anything can happen
Open your heart to the magic waiting there
Hey you, can take control
Of your destiny, you hold the only key
Hey you, can touch the sky
Got to reach for more, that's what dreams are for
Don't be afraid go where the spirit leads you
You have it made, it's all waiting for you
If you believe, just believe in magic
Then anything, anything can happen
Trust in your dreams and you'll see your dreams come true
Follow your heart and it won't mislead you
Look to the stars, follow where they lead you to
Open your heart to the magic waiting there
