Rafa insists on perfection from Liverpool

Liverpool Manager Rafael Benitez has set Liverpool football club the target of 9 wins from the last 9 league games, I suppose it sounds a bit obvious really ‘win the last 9 games to win the league title’..?

Benitez said; “We have beaten Real Madrid and Manchester United in the same week. If we can beat them, we can beat anybody,” said the Spaniard.

“Realistically, we have to win all of our games.”

“You never know what can happen in football but we know how much experience and quality United have in their squad.”

Rafa also admitted that whenever Torres AND Gerrard are on the pitch it gives an air of confidence to the rest of the team. I must admit it seems that way, and coincedntally the last 2 games when Liverpool have scored 4 goals both these players have started.

Gerrard spoke to BBC sport about Torres; “He’s magic. I know I’m going to be biased but I don’t think that anyone will argue against me that he’s the best striker in the world.

“If we keep him fit from now to the end of the season, it’s going to be an exciting finish.

“I believe that If we’d had him fit for more games we’d be closer or even in front of United.”
