Am The Man and The Answer To All Top 7 Teams on EPL |
Asked if Chelsea
represented the most negative visitors to Anfield this season, the Liverpool manager replied: "I'm not going to say.
This game will prepare us for Crystal
Palace . We will have to
deal with long balls forward which we did very well today and we will have to
deal with long throw-ins and got the chance to do that today. I can't fault the
players, we just didn't find the breakthrough. Credit to Chelsea for that, they sat in really deep.
There were probably two buses parked today instead of one."

"It was disappointing," he added. "I think
they got a booking for time-wasting in the 92nd minute [Ashley Cole] but you
could see from the first whistle that the plan was to frustrate. Teams work in
a different way. We are a team that tries to win in a sporting manner, that
tries to initiate the game with the ball. Today it just wasn't to be. Whether
it was time-wasting or whatever it doesn't matter. We lost the game and we move
on to the next game.
"I am very proud of the players. All the money that
has been spent at the top end of the league and we are two points clear of Chelsea . If we win our
last two games we will finish above them and maybe Manchester City .
There is still a way to go. Manchester
City now will feel they
can go on and win their games. For us, we will just recover now and focus on
our next game."
