Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher

WHEN the song played on the final whistle at Anfield is the Beatles classic We Can Work It Out you know Liverpool have big problems to overcome.

The choice of music was therefore particularly apt, if a little optimistic, as the chances of Liverpool continuing their march on Rome past the quarter final stage are now so thin the bookies have made them 50/1 outsiders to win this season’s Champions League.

It is Chelsea who have one foot in the semi-finals and only a miraculous turnaround of Istanbul proportions will be enough after the first leg went in favour of the London club to such an extent that Pepe Reina ended up going up for a late corner in the forlorn hope of reducing the deficit.

A desperate measure to go with the desperate times and Liverpool will need more of the same at Stamford Bridge next week if they are to stand any chance of mounting the unlikeliest of comebacks.
