Liverpool skipper
Steven Gerrard admits they let
themselves down against Fiorentina last night.
"It was a really disappointing night," Gerrard told the
Liverpool Echo.
"We are disappointed with our first-half performance. We just
didn't turn up and were second best all over the pitch. We deserved
to go in behind.
"There was a reaction in the second half - without creating many
clear-cut chances - but we lost the game in the first half.
"We didn't do what we usually do in Europe. We usually play with
a high tempo, pass the ball well and play really well on the
counter-attack. Those things weren't there and it was all over the
pitch - from front to back.
"Now we've got a massive game at Chelsea on Sunday. We have to get this result out
of our system quickly and show a reaction at Stamford Bridge."
