Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard says England fans have a right to boo Chelsea's Ashley Cole.

Gerrard said: "Of course. Any supporter, when you pay money, you deserve to voice your opinion. But we need their support. If we're going to be successful in the future, we need them with us.

"It's not going to help Ashley and it's not going to help the team but the support we got was fantastic. They stayed with us throughout the game.

"He (Cole) is disappointed and the players are disappointed."
