''We scare Chelsea, claims Benitez'' Benitez Clowning Chelsea.

(1/4) > >>

Noname:
Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez claims Chelsea are afraid of playing against the Europeans champions.

The teams meet in the Premiership on Sunday, four days after Wednesday's 0-0 draw in the Champions League ended Chelsea's run of nine straight wins.

"I am sure Chelsea do not like playing Liverpool. When they are talking and talking and talking before the game it means they are worried," he said.

"Maybe they're afraid, I don't know. I hope it's the case after the weekend."

Liverpool host the London side on Sunday lying 14 points behind Jose Mourinho's runaway early leaders.

Mourinho says the Reds will be "finished" in the title race if the Londoners win at Anfield.

   
I couldn't remember seeing so many long balls in a match since I started watching football in the 80s
Jamie Carragher on Chelsea's style
But Benitez said his team is capable of getting the better of the champions.

"We played better than them on Wednesday. They are at the top of the league with a squad maybe as good as anyone in the world and we played at the same level as them," he said.

"We had control in midfield, defence and attack."

Reds defender Jamie Carragher has also hit out at Chelsea's claims that Liverpool are just a long ball team.

"There is no side more direct than Chelsea," he said.

"We watched videos of Chelsea before the game and when we saw their match against Bayern Munich from last season's Champions League.

"I couldn't remember seeing so many long balls in a match since I started watching football in the 80s."

Theodore:

LMAO at that cunt Carragher.  How Liverpool can complain that a team uses the long ball tactic just amuses me.  What a bunch of pricks.  Why do you think Liverpool bought Peter Crouch? Fucking idiots.

Liverpool where the most defensive team in the Premiership last season.  They defend for like 90minutes and try to score goals from set pieces and on breaks.  Just shite.  Even in the Champs League final.  They score 3 jammy goals in six minutes but that was it.  Once they had tied the game up the went back to defending.  Played for penaltys.  Nob heads they are I tell thee.
