MAJOR BOOST FOR REDS
Liverpool have been handed a major boost ahead of the Barclay Asia
Trophy final against Portsmouth after Steven Gerrard, Fernando
Torres, Lucas Leiva and Ryan Babel were all declared available for
selection.
Skipper Gerrard has recovered from the abdominal strain that kept
him out of Tuesday's victory over South China, while Torres, Leiva
and Babel have both now received international clearance.
Speaking to the press at the team hotel, Rafa Benitez said: "We now
have more options. These three players will give us some added
quality and fresh legs.
"We can now approach the final differently and with a more
attacking mentality.
"It's going to be a tough game but it's one we want to win. A lot
of our supporters are here and it's important we win the
trophy.
"I will try to play my best team but I will have to see how the
players are after training before finalising my decision."
Dun make me fall asleep hor while watching match hor. 
I look forward to
seeing Leiva in action.
