  Depends on who they draw and how the new imports settle into the new team.

  they definitely need the lucrative $ to go into the grp stages...
  benitez had a scare.. if pool didnt make it into the grp stages, i guess all fans will start to shoot him

  they wont survive the group stage.
  I cant seems to find any sparks in this team apart from stevie G.
  
  Probably Owen realise it. Unfortunately Stevie G has the opportunity to move to chelsea but chose not to.
  
  I see how long he(stevie G) can endure if liverpool continue to underperform

  wah... still can lost at home. *clap clap*
  
  i think anyone who was sitting in the stands of anfield could've gone down and played with more spirit
  
  kinda like singapore's thrashing by m'sia... anyone from the national stadium could have put in more effort than those clowns we call national footballers.

  You judge them by just this game, aren't you being too unfair ? Just beause they lose this game , it doesnt mean they are not going to progress. This is just a slip-up by the reds.
  
  Tell me, which teams doesn't lost at home ? Arsenal at one time, lost 3-0 at home but they recovered and won the league. I expect Liverpool to recover and do well this season.
  
  Please don't judge one game.

  i wonder how will Alonso and Garcia fit into the liverpool team. Hopefully they'll bring a new dimension to liverpool's attack, coz if liverpool doesn't perform consistently, we won't be challenging for the premier league title but challenging for the last champion's league spot again.

  the team need some time to adapt to benitez ways of managing and style of play... u never noe who will laugh in the end.. just like Greece in Euro 2004..
