Souness unimpressed by Liverpool for Super Cup shootout victory

Liverpool legend Graeme Souness was unimpressed by their Super Cup shootout victory over Chelsea.

Souness says the Reds should've performed much better given the advantages they had.

He said, "They were not Liverpool, I'm not seeing a Liverpool that resembles the Liverpool we saw last season. 'I'm amazed Liverpool were more tired than Chelsea, they've had two extra days to rest.

"I was disappointed with Liverpool tonight, I expected them to be lively, energetic and win comfortably, even by two or three goals. In reality I thought they were second best for the largest part, I thought Chelsea played better football, more energy.

"Given Chelsea played Sunday and Liverpool played Friday that should not have been the case."
