Yes, the May issue of FourFourTwo is hitting the shelves with a look inside the new Liverpool. We speak to the men behind the rebirth to see whatâÂÂs still to come.

Back to the present, and itâÂÂs a different kind of jail for Gangbangers FC. We reveal the incredible story behind the Californian football team made up of members from rival gangs. TheyâÂÂre not bad at footy either â when theyâÂÂre not on trial for murder...
