Posted: Fri May 27, 2005 11:59 pmits a club effort - including the likes of flo sinama pongolle who came on against olympiacos to change the game in the earlier rounds.
of course special mention must go to rafa, when he joined, liverpool football club had lost one of its two star players and the other was considering leaving, the club didnt have the resources it once had financially to overhaul the poor squad he inherited and it seemed the press was determined to put the boot in at every opportunity as they sucked up to the clubs rolling in cash. to the footballing world we were a spent force and a fading star.
add to this an horrific injury list and trying to adapt to life in a foreign country and you have a little what rafa was faced with.
not once did he moan or complain or look for excuses even in the dark times like burnley or united or everton away.
football is the biggest sport on the planet by a country mile - no other sport even comes close - and the biggest prize any club side can win is the champions league. this is the prize that all the richest clubs in the world strive for, spend millions upon million of pounds for, and the reason why all the best players from the four corners of the earth descend on europe.
it is basically the world cup of club football.
you cant get any higher in the club game.
and the trophy is here in liverpool. i had tears in my eyes outside the ground yesterday.
thank you so much the players and staff of liverpool football club and especially you mr benitez.
you`re not the only one struggling to find the words in english to express how you feel.

Biscan is worthy of mention, Mellor chipped in with a crucial goal, it is the whole club

L'pool success wouldn't be possible without all the Red fans at Anfield, traveling with our lads, and the rest of supporters from all over the world.
