Remember Marseille last season ?

 

Too much overconfidence here.

My second post was tongue in cheek, my first was serious - 2 home wins helps take away uncertainty of the group as much as can be after 2 games.

 

Marseille will hopefully be different as Rafa had Torres on the bench and Momo and Leto in the same midfield - I think he stomached as much drama as he could last season in the group stages so we are unlikely to see the same again

Don't need to look that far, I wish I could remember who rolled their eyes at me for daring to suggest he shouldn't put a bet on us scoring more than four against Stoke.

 

I do think that supporters priorities are very much with the Premier League however and this may explain a little why people are discussing changing the team for the Champions League. Bringing in Agger wouldn't really weaken us anyhow.

That was a one in a thousand performance, not gonna happen again.

Especially when you consider we played Sissoko, Benayoun and Leto in the same midfield

we were asking for it

There is only one competition this season. Obviously I wouldnt mind winning both but City on Sunday is more important.

Which is why we should be aiming to be heading into that match with a midweek win, just to keep the league tails up. In fact, we might want to think about winning all the midweek games to keep the boys priapic for the weekend.

Is there a trade off though, I think the best sauce for the squad is this - play your damn best and you retain your place. You will get rested and replaced when that form falls away and you can come back later in the season.

 

Actually scratch that - it doesnt apply to Torres and Gerrard - they should be told that they are not in the FAC or Carling Cup squads and hopefully the last 2 group stage games of the CL

play full strength and we could panel these.

I'd go so far as to say try to smash them off the park early, then pull the big players for Sunday.

It's hard to pluralise the Torreses

 

It doesn't sound right

 

But yes, Ron, that's right
