Liverpool great Rush warns Inter Milan; praises Tuchel for Lukaku handling

Liverpool great Ian Rush is convinced they'll be too strong for Champions League opponents Inter Milan.

The two giants will meet in the Champions League round of 16.

Rush told TMW: "They are two great teams with a prestigious history, but today Liverpool are playing very well. Against the Italians it is always difficult to score, but with those three up there the Reds can certainly score and win by passing the turn."

Rush also spoke of Romelu Lukaku being dropped for Chelsea's draw with Liverpool last Sunday.

He added: "Not calling him in the match following his outburst was right, the club comes first and therefore there could not have been a better decision. I am convinced that Lukaku will come out stronger, Romelu learned his lesson. Bravo Tuchel, who handled everything perfectly."
