Gerrard admits it’s ‘not good enough’ as Reds end in failure

LIVERPOOL captain Steven Gerrard reflected on his team’s Champions League campaign and admitted it had been “not good enough” after the Reds’ involvement in the competition finished with a 2-1 home defeat to Fiorentina at Anfield last night.

Yossi Benayoun’s glancing header gave his side the lead shortly before half-time only for Martin Jorgensen to equalise with a low left-footed shot in the 63rd minute and Alberto Gilardino to snatch a winner two minutes into added time.

Gerrard said: “If you look at the whole campaign, it was not good enough but now we need to try qualify for the same competition next year.
