Villarreal midfielder Capoue: Anfield is HELL; Liverpool want to KILL you

Villarreal midfielder Etienne Capoue has warned teammates ahead of tonight's Champions League semifinal first-leg at Liverpool.

Capoue has warned his team-mates that they face "hell" at Anfield.

"Anfield is hell, you have to say it how it is. It's hell," Capoue told AFP.

"It's the worst stadium I've been to in England. Whether it's the atmosphere, the way they play... For 90 minutes, you live in hell.

"They have this ability to transcend themselves, to cause you nothing but problems, all the time, in any part of the field.

"They never stop, they rush you all the time, they only want to score goals, and even when they score, they carry on. They want to knock you out.

"They don't care what or who is in front of them. They just want to kill everyone and that's it."
