It's a wonder that Liverpool FC fans haven't got square eyes - because the Reds feature on TV more than any other team.

Perhaps it's because of the beautiful football that Brendan Rodgers has his side playing or maybe it has something to do with the legions of fans around the world but chances are that if you subscribe to a BT Sport or Sky Sports package you will be getting a regular dose of the Reds.

And therefore, when it comes to TV money, it's the Reds that have benefited the most too. Last season they generated a whopping £97m from the TV companies - almost £2m more than their nearest rivals Manchester City.

Our data unit looked at the past two and a half seasons and discovered that it was the Reds, along with Manchester United, that led the way in terms of television appearances, with both teams having been shown live 60 times.

Last season though it was Liverpool that were attracting most of the attention from the TV cameras. They were shown 28 times out of 38 games.

That's three more times than their big rivals Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal and also eventual Premier League champions Manchester City.

The Reds are already scheduled to appear 10 times in the new season, that's the joint most with United and City.

Stoke City may have changed manager in an effort to change their image, but clearly Mark Hughes' side are still tarred with the same Tony Pulis brush, because the prop up the pack having only been shown seven times last term.

Liverpool's runners-up finish to the last season's Premier League crown meant they were entitled to a £23m "merit payment", that added to the facility fees that each club receives, which is around £21m and the fees paid for the number of appearances the Reds were shown on TV, saw them lead the way in terms of money paid out.

City were a close second, on around £96m, with Chelsea third on £94. The gap widens somewhat if a team drops out of the top four, with Manchester United, for example, paid out £89m.
