Chelsea winger Kalou didn't want Liverpool draw

Chelsea winger Salomon Kalou admitted disappointment after drawing Liverpool in the Champions League quarterfinals.

He said: "I didn't want any of the English clubs to be drawn together.

"It would have been good to keep the four Premier League teams for the semi-finals.

"We're really motivated after losing the final on penalties last year. If we could win the Champions League it would help us forget what happened in Moscow because that was hard to get over."
