Rafa delighted with win

A freak deflected goal from Jermaine Pennant broke the deadlock before half time, Fernando Torres netted his 25th of the season to double the lead and set up Steven Gerrard to make it 3-0.

"It was more or less the perfect day," said the Liverpool boss. "We got the points and we could take players off ahead of the Champions League in Italy on Tuesday.

"The first goal was a bit lucky but the second was a fantastic piece of play and that one was the big difference.

"The understanding between Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard is good and they can kill off any team those two."
