Liverpool’s 2007–08 season under Rafael Benítez saw them finish 4th in the Premier League, ensuring Champions League qualification but never mounting a true title challenge, while their domestic cup runs ended early with exits to Chelsea in the League Cup and Barnsley in the FA Cup; in Europe, however, they excelled, reaching the Champions League semi-finals after eliminating Inter Milan and Arsenal before falling to Chelsea, and the campaign was defined by the sensational debut of Fernando Torres, who scored 33 goals in all competitions, supported by Steven Gerrard’s 21 strikes and key contributions from Dirk Kuyt and Ryan Babel. Liverpool’s 2008–09 season under Rafael Benítez was one of their strongest in the Premier League era, as they finished 2nd with 86 points, just four behind Manchester United, losing only twice all season but drawing too often to claim the title; highlights included a stunning 4–1 win at Old Trafford and a 5–0 aggregate victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League before falling to Chelsea in the quarter-finals, while domestic cup runs ended early, and despite the brief, disappointing spell of record signing Robbie Keane, the campaign was defined by Steven Gerrard’s 24 goals, Fernando Torres’s attacking threat despite injuries, and the consistency of Jamie Carragher, making the Reds genuine title contenders until the very end.
