Notes

  • Harry Redknapp, Portsmouth boss: "We conceded some terrible goals through poor defending but Torres is a a top striker, a fantastic player who is at another level. He is in a top-four team with a lot of good players who can tear you apart on the day.

    "Make no mistake, Liverpool can beat anybody on their day and the top four teams are at another level to everybody else in this division."
