We now head back to January 2004 and arguably the highlight of Bruno Cheyrou's Liverpool career.

Gerard Houllier got the better of Claudio Ranieri as the Reds produced a gritty display at Stamford Bridge in a game full of incident.

The only goal arrived on 33 minutes when a great cross from Emile Heskey found Cheyrou, and the France international fired a sweet effort beyond the reach of Carlo Cudicini.

Goalkeeper Patrice Luzi made his debut in the second half after Jerzy Dudek was forced off with a groin injury, and the Frenchman was left breathing a sigh of relief when Chelsea hit the woodwork.

But, despite also losing El-Hadji Diouf to a red card on 87 minutes, Houllier's side held on.
