Benitez: 'My biggest week'

update @ 2:25 AM: Liverpool have DONE IT - Un-fucking-believable!!
Before the game I was sayin 0-0 will be a good result, half-fearing that we'd probably lose 1 or 2-0. But when the ANFIELD crowd gets behind its heroes, they can beat ANY team on the face of this planet - Proved it yet again even without Stevie G when Garcia opened up the scoring in the 15th with a beautiful finish after Biscan set him up with an inch perfect through ball (Biscan!!!).

Rise made it 2-0 with a curling missile of a freekick before half time and Hamann added another in the 90th minute with another freekick - Gerrard was visible celebrating in the stands - And then Jerzy Dudek does what he does best - cock up an easy one - ball played straight to him and he fumbled it straight into the path of the oncoming Leverkusen prick who finished it off.

3-1, I'm so chuffed I won't probably be able to go to sleep tonight! One foot in the door to the QFs. COMON THE REDS

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE!!!!!

"I know this is a big week in my time at Liverpool, I hope next Monday I can say it has been my best week," says Rafa. "All I can say is that if you work hard then you will be lucky."

Mind you, Liverpool are without the services of Morientes, who is cup-tied, and captain fantastic Stevie G - who's suspended from action this week. Leverkusen have had some great result in their recent matches, while Liverpool have been highly inconsistent... with 2-0 losses to Southampton and Birmingham.

Personally, a 0-0 would be a good achievement.

"It's always good to have our best players available but this is not always the case," says Benitez. "It is normal to have player out through either suspension or injury and there is nothing we can do about it. We have been preparing for this game without those players and we have solutions.
