BOSS HAILS HISTORY MAKER

Rafa Benitez has paid tribute to goalkeeper Pepe Reina after the Spaniard once again saved his way into the Anfield record books.
Saturday's shut out against Wigan meant Reina had kept 55 clean sheets in his first 100 games – more than any post-war Liverpool keeper. "I saw the statistic about David James having about 142 clean sheets in over 400 games over 12 years," said Benitez. "This shows how well Pepe has done to make 55 in 100 games in just two years. Our whole defence has been really good, not just Pepe, but it's true he gives a lot of confidence to all the defenders because of his quality."
