00:00...campaigned during the week. Now Liverpool and Blackburn Rovers return to the home front.

00:05Robbie Fowler's reinstatement today means the home fans will see him in partnership with Stan Collymore for the first time at outfield.

00:12Fowler replaces Michael Thomas. Otherwise, it's the side that triumphed in faraway Vladekamp-Caus on Tuesday.

00:19Ian Rush and John Scales are still injured.

00:21It's a young team, eight of them 25 or under, and it's an English team.

00:25Phil Babb of Ireland is the only outsider.

00:29There's another adopted Irishman on the bench today.

00:31Jason McAteer had a straight choice to make last week between his boyhood idol, Kenny Dalglish, and his boyhood favourites, Liverpool.

00:39He chose Liverpool.

00:41He would probably have been in the Blackburn team today if he'd signed for them.

00:44As it is, Jeff Kenner has been pressed into midfield service after only half a week's training because Mark Atkins is suspended.

00:52It's Kenner's first game since the Charity Shield.

00:54He's got a premiership now. This weekend we'll see nigh on a sixth of the league's season completed.

01:01The top of the table already taking shape and Blackburn Rovers nowhere to be seen.

01:06David Batty, who had a similar hangover after the Leeds United Championship season.

01:14Stan Collibor.

01:15It's a little strong before Steve Parkers.

01:17The last time the championship was settled over 38 games five years ago.

01:23The title winners, Arsenal, were beaten just once.

01:26Blackburn have already lost three league matches.

01:28Spring is having another fling on Merseyside today.

01:38Warm and dry on the weather front.

01:40Parkers.

01:50Parkers.

01:52Got away from Burke.

01:54We're at the challenge.

01:56For Kenner.

01:57And a dollar from Pearce.

01:58What a run.

01:58Fowler!

01:59Barnes.

02:08Wright arriving.

02:09Hanging by Pearce.

02:10Rednapp!

02:11He's planted off Merseau.

02:12It'll be a quarter kick.

02:15JB Rednapp can strike them much better than that.

02:19Came to him in at awkward height.

02:20Didn't really get hold of it.

02:23He's got another chance here.

02:24Got hold of that or Wright.

02:28Screamer!

02:29A goal for Liverpool in 12 minutes.

02:38A thunderbolt from the right foot of JB Rednapp.

02:43Well, he scored a beauty in Russia last week.

02:47And that was enough to win the game for Liverpool.

02:51And having just rather scuffed an effort a few moments earlier,

02:55he hit a nolla with power and bend to put the team in front.

02:59And one.

03:00Very awkward.

03:01Here's Fowler.

03:03Money Collymore up with him.

03:05This is Scott Collymore.

03:11He's couldn't quite get it under control.

03:12Matt Maneman.

03:18Jones.

03:20Went by Pearce.

03:21He saw that one coming.

03:33He got himself in front of the defender.

03:36And that was the end of the story.

03:38He does have a real eye for goal.

03:43An uncommon eye-cook for goal for a 20-year-old Robbie Fowler.

03:46And having chalked up his half-century for Liverpool at Tottenham last month,

03:54he's taken guard and started on another 50.

03:57But the important thing was how Fowler stole a yard on Berg to get there.

04:02Made it his.

04:05Collymore having a short tuck, but he is a very strong man.

04:09Matt Maneman.

04:14Oh my God.

04:15Hartness.

04:23Matt Maneman allowed to turn.

04:26Fowler.

04:28Collymore.

04:30Oh!

04:30Well, he did it on his Anfield debut.

04:35And he's done it again in his second game for Liverpool here.

04:38A brilliant goal from Stam Collymore.

04:43And Liverpool are flying here.

04:48It's his left foot again.

04:53That's not a bad weak foot, is it?

04:56We knew exactly what he was doing.

05:00And he's done it.

05:02Rift-taking stuff.

05:09Yellow cut.

05:15Tight corner that Liverpool passed their way out of a moment or so ago.

05:18It's brought them this far.

05:19McLaneman trying to latch on to Fowler's return pass and winning a corner kick.

05:27Miss Wright.

05:28Tucked by Berg.

05:30I think Berg's already been shown a yellow card.

05:34And his afternoon is going to come to an end here.

05:36Oh, and Berg didn't seem to go through with the challenge, did he?

05:46Oh!

05:47Oh!

05:48Oh!

05:49Oh!

05:50Oh!

05:51Oh!

05:52Oh!

05:53Oh!

06:08Oh!

06:09Oh!

06:10Oh!

06:11Oh, oh!

06:12Tim Sherwood's name has been appearing in the transfer gossip columns this week.

06:26One or two jeers, one or two home fans that he would park for the skipper last weekend.

06:32Amazing really, a championship captain, PFA award nominee last year.

06:42Hendry, played by Ruddock, he is Sherwood again, blocked by Ruddock, make-all!

06:50Goal kick, despite the appeals for the corner.

06:55Throughout his young life, Jason McIntyre has dreamt of a day when he might put on a Liverpool shirt and run out at Anfield.

07:03And now, the dream comes through for the lifelong fan.

07:06Byron Burry, promising four years with Bolton.

07:14They'll replace John Barnes.

07:18Michael Thomas, the other substitute, is coming on too.

07:23In place of Jamie Redknapp.

07:26It's here.

07:28McManaman.

07:29McManaman.

07:36McManaman.

07:39He has just managed to get a foot on the ball.

07:46Liverpool have been in exhibition mode for some time now.

07:49Shearwood.

08:01Shearer.

08:05Right-feeding Newell to it at the near post.

08:07And Blackburn have a quarter kick.

08:10Blackburn forward.

08:11Another huge step in the right direction for Liverpool.

08:16Another big stumble for Blackburn Rovers there.

08:18Season eight games old and they've been beaten six times already.

08:23At Anfield, Liverpool have played three, won three.

08:27One in style today.
