Is Liverpool about to get bounced in the qualifying round? Edit: Kyut knocks in a Babel cross and Liverpool are through. Arsenal advance over FC Twente, coached by the Wally with the Brolly, 6-0 on aggregate.
Liege certainly had their chances. Kuyt saved their butts tonight. Liverpool has been really lucky so far in both the premiership and in champions league. They better shape up offensively, or they're in for an ugly season. Hopefully with Babel and Mascherano in the lineup now, they'll move the ball better.
Group A Chelsea Roma Bordeaux CFR Group B Internazionale Bremen Panathinaikos Anorthosis Group C Barcelona Sporting Portugal Basel Shakhtar Group D Liverpool PSV Eindhoven Marseille Atletico Group E Manchester United - Champions of Europe Villareal Celtic AaB Group F Lyon Bayern Steaua Fiorentina Group G Arsenal Porto Fenerbahce Dynamo Kyiv Group H Real Madrid Juventus Zenit BATE I'm happy with Man United's draw. We don't have to make any long trips, and Villareal is the only team in the group I think can really push us. I don't envy Arsenal or Liverpool's draw, Arsenal has a couple of long trips to Kiev and Fenerbache, while all four teams in Group D are solid. Groups H is the "Group of Death." Group F should be fun to watch as well.
