Carragher is excellent... Skrtel is well on his way to being one of the VERY best in the EPL. Mellberg and Legro aren't the most skilled, but they do have a lot of class... they're solid characters... hehe... They'd be outstanding 3rd and 4th choice CB's. Anyways, I enjoy having them on the team... I guess that's my point...
Liverpool is class. I FUCKING DESPISE the EPL, but I can appreciate the history that exists at Liverpool.
Amauri was 22.6M Euros. We gave them Nocerino for 7.5... so they got about 15M in cash from us... so at 22.6, technically he was a little cheaper then Keane...
Generally... well at first thought, I'd like to avoid EPL teams in the group stages as well... who wouldn't? In reality though, we're going to have to face em eventually, so it would probably be a nice (Read: highly productive) test to draw one of these top class team in the group stages... as long as the other teams in the group are mediocre. Too bad we don't get to choose...hehe. I feel that we need the practice against top class opponents, in a more flexible situation then the do or die of heads up....

Well, there is a 60% chance we'll get an EPL team in our group. From the 8 group holders 4 are English and we can't get Inter. The other three are the two spanish giants and Lyon.
Lyon is the team most of us would like to get. Not just because they are the weakest team "by name", but looking at their roster, they should be the team we can cope with.
They are still strong with players like Benzema, Toulalan, Keita, Grosso, Fred, Juninho, Boumsong
D ) etc, but not as strong as the other group holders.
It will be orgasmic if we get this group :
1. Lyon (Fra)
2. Juventus (Ita)
3. Basel (Sui)
4. BATE Borisov (Blr)
But if Schalke eliminates Atletico we can find ourselves in this group
1. Manchester United (Eng)
2. Bayern Munich (Ger)
3. Juventus (Ita)
4. Fenerbahce (Tur)

so, basically we have to cheer for atletico for the return games, is that right? I think it's still possible for them to win, especially in madrid i think they could turn that 1-0 from schalke. That red card will probably be worrying them though. Btw, did aguero play in the last game? haven't heard of him...
