I think this was the first time Pool have failed to qualify for the second round since 2002-2003, but that was just me guessing and checking. I think they made it the years afterwards.
Group B
1. Valencia
2. Basel
3. Liverpool
4. Spartek Moskva
The Yids don't have the bottle. Boxing Day will do them in and we'll just be hitting stride. The Mini-Mancs have drawn 6 straight and don't look like they want anything other than salaries. Villa is coached by Martin O'Neil and Everton play worse defense than we do.
IMO the team most vulnerable to losing top four status is Arsenal, they always start the season well and get worse as it progress's. Continuing to get rid of their established players and relying on prospects they find instead of big signings will come back to bite them.
It was a tough one, I dislike Fiorentina and I dislike Liverpool. So the result was not relevant to me. However I'd rather shut the EPL fans up about their league being the best so....
