Moses: Rejecting Liverpool could have damaged my Career

SUPER Eagles ace, Victor Moses believes his career would have been under threat had he not completed his season long loan move to Liverpool from Chelsea.
The former Crystal Palace and Wigan Athletic star was one of three signings made by Brendan Rodgers on transfer deadline day, arriving at Anfield alongside defenders Mamadou Sakho and Tiago Ilori.
Just 12 of Moses' 28 starts last season came in the Premier League, prompting Jose Mourinho to allow the 22-year-old to leave on loan following the arrivals of Willian and Andre Schurrle, who will contest for a starting berth in the already crowded attacking midfield department.
The Nigerian international is almost certain to be gifted more opportunities this season under Brendan Rodgers and has stressed how detrimental a lack of playing time may have proved to be, a likely scenario had he stayed at Stamford Bridge.
"As a young football coming up, I just want to play games," Moses told Liverpool's official website.
