Steven Gerrard has said that Liverpool can have no complaints about being knocked out of the Champions League as he feels that the Reds were "not good enough" over the course of the six group games.
The 34-year-old scored a late free kick to give Liverpool hope of progressing against Basel in their final Group B game, but the game finished in a 1-1 draw which meant that the Swiss outfit went through as runners-up.
"I don't think we deserved better," he told ITV Sport.
"We have not gone out because of this performance, we weren't good enough away to Basel and we let in a silly goal away to Ludogorets.
"You qualify over six games and we have not been good enough."
Liverpool won just one game in Group B, a 2-1 victory over Ludogorets Razgrad in their opening fixture of this season's competition.
