    SOUNDBITE: (English) Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager

    "Over the course of the games we weren't good enough, didn't collect enough points and ultimately went out. It's been a real good learning experience for us and we're going to fight as hard as we can to ensure it's not another five years (until we're in the Champions League)."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager

    "The penalties were close, maybe the right calls. I thought the sending off was a really, really disappointing decision by the referee. I'm not sure he's close enough to make (the decision). I think everyone looking at it will see young Lazar Markovic gets sent off for that, his fingernail barely touched the nose of the defender. I think the defender is the guy who should be looked at and sent off for his reaction."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool manager

    "They are a good side and experienced at this level. They are the top side in Swiss football and regularly qualify for the Champions League and have experience in it. They are a good side, good players, some experienced layers and as I said over the course of the games they've deserved to go through."
