The start of a new season is like the first day of school or the first day at a new job.
NESN viewers can watch Liverpool FC gear up for the 2012-13 Premier League opener in episode four of Being: Liverpool. The fourth installment of the critically acclaimed series airs Thursday, Nov. 22, at 7 p.m. ET.
From the people who produced the Emmy award-winning HBO series 24/7, Being: Liverpool gives viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the world’s most historic soccer club as it embarks on a new era under first-year manager Brendan Rodgers.
Club employee Patrick Daley brims with optimism as he raises the Liverpool flag to the top of the pole.
Watch Liverpool’s final preparations for the season-opening trip to West Bromwich Albion. Captain Steven Gerrard talks about the first time he realized Liverpool would be a big part of his life. Joe Cole has a special seat reserved for 17-year-old winger Raheem Sterling as the Reds board the team bus for the trip to the Midlands.
Meanwhile, Rodgers rallies his team with a final address the night before the game. It includes ominous warnings about three people he thinks might let the club down during the season. “Don’t be one of the names in the envelope,” he implores.
