And here we go... 

Do find it funny how quick salah was written off as a one season wonder. May not hit the same amount as last season but has lost the ability to score 

it's because folks did not really watch him when he wasn't scoring. I did and his level of play wasn't much below than when he was scoring - just the shots weren't going in.

Salah is a lot more than goals though. He beats players often in two very distinct ways: a. dribbling and pace and b. quick link up with teammates (+pace). The b, with his speed and quick feet, makes him especially effective in tougher games, like CL. It takes a lot of skill to link up at such pace and I think he showed a little bit of that when at chelsea.

To think we had him and did not bet on him. And then we saw his improvement elsewhere and still let him go for peanuts... :blink:

Napoli and Inter dont scare me one bit.

Couldnt disagree more, those are both world class teams

The CL draw this years was shite

ridiculous that Porto, Schalke and probably Roma were gifted through

We also could have to face Lyon if they somehow bollocks it up tomorrow

Criminal that Porto and Schalke got put in same group (with two even worse teams) when that should have had Inter and Napoli (or Spurs or Liverpool)

If you think we walk through to EL title your are mistaken

I do think we should walk through. Milan and Napoli are good sides but if we play at our best we should be able to beat them over 2 legs. It is our title to lose. Lets hope we get only one hard opponent tho so we can rotate more. Glad spurs and pool are thru in cl. Keeps their energy in europe and them out of our way in el

I would rather the scousers and spuds went through too, but UEFA stacked the decks with such shoddy groups. Every group but two had two clearly superior teams except the Spuds and Victimpool groups which each had 3 top 15 clubs in world (including 2 of the top 4) in and then you had the joke group D with Porto and Schalke and Galatasaray and Lokomotiv Moskow.

Something really needs to be done to stop that from happening. Porto is a horrid league (only twice in 85 years has a non Big 3 (Porto, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon) club won the league, Belenenses (1945–46) and Boavista (2000–01) and Schalke is horrid this season (3 points away from relegation zone) due to insane injuries (their top FOUR strikers are all out plus their starting RW) plus they sold both their starting CB's and have the worst fullbacks (counting Baba Rahman who is still carrying a knock) in the Bundesliga.

It was criminal to give them their own group and stuff 6 of the top 15 teams in the word into 2 others.
