The draw has been delayed to 3:30pm. Who are Liverpool going to get? Please dont let it be Chelsea! lol
Its all to do with their previous record in Europe. They take how well you've done in the last 5 years and then rate you accordingly. Chelsea have sucked until a certain MULTI-BILLIONAIRE started giving them some money.
It's Chelsea. GROUP G LIVERPOOL CHELSEA Anderlecht Real Betis Both English teams have a good chance of going through though, you'd have to say.
lol it had to happen!! I actually fancy being able to beat Anderlecht more than Betis even though its their champions league debut. I mean Betis have Denilson still I think who has always proved he is a world class midfielder. I'm sure Betis beat Liverpool about 6 years ago in the Uefa cup as well. I cant see Rangers going through from that group but you never know.
Don't underestimate anderlecht, they got a 0 out of 18 last year and now they want revenge, their qualifying games were very good..
I think one of Rafael Benitez key management skills is that he does not tolerate complacency in any team. He is an extremely tactical manager who will take each game and work it differently than the last 1. There are managers who just play every game the same and try to use the same winning formation but Benitez analyses the style of each team and builds his strategy around it. I dont think any games at this stage will be easy but there's always teams you just dont want to have to play against.
I personally hope that Liverpool sign him. It would be awful to have Owen playing against Liverpool for Newcastle.
He is worth the 16-18 million pound to stop him scoring against us. Averages 4-5 goals against us every season.
