True, but then we were winning in the 80's too, and for the following 20 years remained in and about the European scene. To be fair, 20 years on, you did actually get into the most prestigous football tornament once again.. mind, we all know how that ended..



I don't see it as a great problem. Last year, we drew Barcelona - won. The year prior, we drew Benfica - lost. Now, the first was on paper tougher, but we triumphed. I actually think we play considerably better against the better sides. But nevertheless, not all the time are the top seeds better than the second (a direct example being us qualifying in second to Porto or Marseille).

As for those Besiktas supporters, i believe they were the 'Ultras':

You're fans were outstanding last night mate, apart from when objects were thrown at Pennant & Gerrard. The Besiktas fans are probably the best out of the Istanbul clubs.

buttttttttttttttttt

Uefa cup-Turkish team

NO WAY OUT

Could you please speak English, You could be calling CFCBhoy anything and we wouldnt know it.

What?

Your fans taught us a lesson on how to create an atmosphere... Awsome support m8.

Loved the whistling every time a red got the ball too.

Hi mate,why did you say to me especially?
Congratulations on the result by the way

Liverpool need to go to Marseille, and have Porto and Besiktas at home, i can see 6 points coming from these games, Marseille away will be a tough game. Also depending on the points Porto and Besiktas at home won’t prove to be easy.

With the current form Liverpool are in and the rafa's rotation policy, sammi scoring at the wrong end and playing an in form Arsenal who stuffed them three times last season, it doesn’t look good them. Potentially out of Europe and league before November is over. Now that would be funny.

Rafa "I need money to compete with the big boys"

Board "Ok we'll give you money"

Rafa "The promised me money, but I haven’t seen any"

Board "Here you go here is your money"

Rafa "Now I can compete for the league"

Yeah right rafa....hahahahahaha

haha Because your ass is owned by the Turks.

I remember Newcastle being in the exact same situation a few years ago when they had to win their last 3 games to qualify,and one of those games was against Barcelona,they ended up doing the impossible so we definitely can...

It's gonna take a massive amount of effort,but it is possible without doubt,Liverpool always respond better when everything is against them,just look at the game against Milan or the time we had to beat Olympiakos by 2 goals to qualify and also the FA Cup final v West Ham...

anything is possible,so i'm backing Tez's comments up,i'm behind the boys

Lol am i missing something,or are you as baffled as me Tezzie?

You never know, with dodgy refs and gerrard diving you's could be unstoppable.

That's the spirit Bluey,get behind the boys too

I think he just seen your avatar and the LFC in your name and thought he'd rub it in.

Ah right,it must be Bluenose in disguise then lol

The Turkish Bluenose.

Well he did say he was trying his best to sing in turkish

Incase you don't already know, if we win our game in hand (West Ham at home), we'll have had an equally good start to United's last season. And didn't they go on to win it? AND we're totally out of form as well. I do love the picture your trying to create though, that we're in some sort of crisis.. the rotation card is boring though matey..

Yes I wrote the problem because was a problem for Barça because if there is a Barça - Liverpool again sure that Liverpool beat us like always. For this reason I would prefer that Liverpool didn't qualify.

Ah, i understand.

Although in the form we're in, you'd brush us aside. That said, if we did go to all the effort of getting through, i'm sure the players would be damned if they'd get beaten in the first knockout stages..

From a Liverpool perspective, i don't care who we meet in the Champions League, so long as we make it through. Anyone but AC Milan that is..

Though we all know the dream scenario would be a UEFA Cup Final versus Everton..
