Its funny an English team with a mythical bird as an emblem against a team with an eagle as an emblem and they get licked in a country called Turkey!! Check out the first goal by Besiktas, something out of a Charlie Chaplin movie, but the other two was a text book finish.The game between Besiktas (Besiktas won 2-1) and Liverpool in the Champions league spelled out loud that there is now offcially no easy game in the Champions league. Benitez is now caught up in the Houllier syndrome when the Frenchman won the UEFA cup, FA cup and League Cup treble, he was ahead of schedule on delivering success for Liverpool and he later fizzled out when he could not bring the Premier League trophy. Benitez is now homing in on this after an empty cupboard last season for the first time in his tenure at Liverpool, the Champions League truimph in his first season might be a false dawn. It is time for the pampered Steven Gerrad to leave Liverpool and this might have an effect on the reds the same way it had an effect on Arsenal when Henry left. Besiktas played some great one touch football but you know you (Liverpool) are in trouble when you have a Brazilian with a name called Bobo scoring against you!!!
