Rafa ready for TNS test

Three-nil up from the first leg, Liverpool should qualify comfortably, but the boss isn't taking anything for granted.

"We will use a strong team against TNS,"he said. "It might not be the strongest team we could select, but it will still be a strong side.

"We must be careful in the game. Even though we're three goals up we want to name a strong side because we don't want any surprises on the night. We must do the right job and we must approach it in a serious frame of mind.

"Maybe if we make some early chances and score some early goals then it will become easier for us, but in football you never know what is going to happen.

"We are playing a lot of games at the moment and that's good from my point of view as we prepare for the season."
