By Patrick Hart in Liverpool If Milan is a fashion capital then Liverpool can rightly be called a centre of footballing chic. While designer labels impress on the Lombard plain, beside the Irish Sea club colours are all the rage - and not just the red and blue of the city's two famous teams, Liverpool FC and Everton FC. Tracksuited youthVenture into Liverpool and you are just as likely to see the colours of Europe's leading sides as you are the Liver Birds that perch on the civic buildings next to the River Mersey. The tracksuit is uniform among male youths, with those bearing the logos of AC Milan, FC Internazionale Milano and Real Madrid CF, to name a few, a common sight. 'A football city'It is a curiosity that confirms Antonio Núñez's view of the place. "It is a football city," he told uefa.com. "You can feel the atmosphere. Everyone wants to talk about the game, and the people are very sensitive about their football." Tough startNúñez is one of five Spanish players signed by Liverpool since manager Rafael Benítez's accession last summer. He arrived in the deal that took Michael Owen to Madrid. Injuries, and participation in an infamous FA Cup defeat by Burnley FC, provided a tough introduction to life at Anfield for the 26-year-old. 'Success helps'However, the team's run to the UEFA Champions League final has helped Núñez and the rest of Benítez's Spanish set gain acceptance. "When a new manager and players come, to have success makes everything easier," he said. "We all get on as a group, while the fans are [url=http://www.afett.com/Uploads/team.html]san francisco 49ers jerseys[/url] something else. They should be like this in every country." Ominous [url=http://www.caribglass.com/products/maceutical.html]detroit lions jerseys[/url] wordsNúñez even gets a mention in the Anfield Kop's ode to Benítez, which goes to the tune of La Bamba. They might have to pen more paeans to the manager if the winger's ominous assertion that "this is just the first year" of a bright new era rings true. Spanish approvalWhile the Spanish are proving a hit on Merseyside, the cultural exchange is by no means one-sided. "Spanish journalists call and say, 'You are the only Spanish team left in the Champions League'," said Núñez. "Now the whole country wants us to win." 'A gift'Like Núñez, Luis García admits he did not expect to be playing a Champions League final when he joined the Reds from FC Barcelona last August. The thought of Wednesday night in Istanbul is "like a dream". The 26-year-old added: "It has been a transitional year, so this final is a bonus." No regretsGarcía and Núñez are also in agreement as to when they started to believe Liverpool could do something in the competition this season - "Olympiacos [url=http://www.matrixdesigns.com/aims/Inquiry.html]cheap pittsburgh steelers jerseys[/url] [CFP]" is the answer denoting the against-the-odds victory that swept Liverpool into the knockout rounds. Their progress has left García, a goalscorer against Bayer 04 Leverkusen, Juventus FC and Chelsea FC, with no regrets about leaving his hometown club. "I wouldn't swap [winning the league with Barcelona] with the Champions League final." Great achievementBut what of the manager? According to one Liverpool watcher writing [url=http://www.wecanindia.org/affected.html]cheap seattle seahawks jerseys[/url] in the city's Daily Post newspaper, he will have achieved more by winning the European Champion Clubs' Cup than his illustrious predecessors, because they had "thoroughbreds" compared with the current "pony" of the Anfield squad. Meticulous approachNúñez cites the "calm" Benítez brings to the team; García insists his secret "is in the detail, in the little things". Thanks to that meticulous approach, red is today the brightest of all the football colours on Merseyside. Related ItemsFifty years of finalsHope springs eternal for Hyypiä
