RAFA: MISTAKES COST US
from Liverpoolfc.co.uk
Liverpool were beaten by goals from Flamini, Toure and Gallas and Rafa believes at least two of the goals could have been avoided. He said, "We started well and we were controlling a lot of things, but when we conceded the first goal it was a problem.
"We made some mistakes. When you play against a good team with a lot of quality you have to be 100% all of the time, but we made big mistakes for the first and second goals."
And Rafa again lamented his side's failure to claim the game's pivotal first goal. He said, "We knew they would be a difficult team to play against and we knew it would be important to score the first goal, but we couldn't do it.
"It's clear we need to improve our away record. I have some ideas, but it wont be until next week at Middlesbrough when we see whether the improvement is there."
Arsenal Manager Arsene Wenger credited Liverpool's performance and agreed with Rafa's assessment when he said, "Liverpool played very well. The first goal was very important and if they had scored it, it might have been a different game.
