Do Liverpool do well in Europe because they don't compete in the league?

Posted by: Micheal McKenna, yesterday

Liverpool do quite well each season in the champions league (bearing in mind though, they have only won it once) but this is because they simply do not compete domestically. Rafa 'rotate' Benitez simply doesn't know the meaning on consistency. he rests all his top players (all 3 of them, and then the other end of season regulars) in the first half of the season therefore enabling them to perform in the latter half. It also helps them in the Champions League because by the time the semi's come around Liverpool have cemented their coveted fourth place by then, allowing them to concentrate solely on Europe.
