We win it in 4 games against the hardest possible group, have some great nights and knock some rivals out. Then we all go to Berlin and win the European Cup.

The Ev are weird. Trying to second guess them doesn't work. Of course they don't want us to win it but they love a bit of defiance and having lost a soft one yesterday they might decide they have something to prove in their last home game. On the other hand they might go lame because they have run out of legs and can't be bothered. But City are weird too. We beat Chelsea, we beat them well and City's heads will go regardless.

I love walking to or from the ground from town.

And treating them like two events that don't impact each other.

Beat Chelsea and it all slides into place.

Two draws is enough.

I reckon so. Culminating in town at about 6pm.

Can't get the 12th. The masses flocked for it about six weeks ago. I calmly took the 6th. EDIT: Had a chat with someone about this - might *want* to work the 12th, in a state, a terrible mess, go the parade, go bananas and take the 13th.

I've got Tuesday 6th off. I haven't got Monday 12th off. My money is where my mouth is.

YES! The hardest possible group. That is what I want. I want the Champions of England against the Champions Of Europe.

Don't worry. Our lot will be floating home.

You kidding? Imagine the laughs training with those lads. They are having a great time.

We beat Chelsea, City kick off knowing that at Crystal Palace. If it was Arsenal or Spurs or United or even Everton or they were at home they could rally themselves around the principle of just winning the game. But Crystal Palace? f*** that. Nowhere worse to be.

Three terrific years of a walking grupo de la muerte.

Quick example: Gave chances to Warnock, Mellor, Potter, Pongolle, LeTallec, Welsh, Whitbread and Raven all in his first season. The two who went on to pull up the most trees post Liverpool - Warnock and Pongolle - also went on to play the most games for Liverpool. Another tired argument this, especially in the context of the current manager who seems absolutely brilliant at bringing young players through and also has young players of genuine quality to bring through, something for which, all in, we can be thankful.

Before you said Carragher was sharp and intelligent. You see, I agree Carragher is sharp and intelligent. At sentences. As soon as it becomes more complex then the straightforward aspects of his argument always end up brushing up against one another. It happens *every single time* he elongates an argument whether written or spoken. This sounds like I'm being mean - by the standards of the vast majority of pundits the fact he can do intelligent is good, but there's so often big holes once whipsharp common sense sentences have faded.

Very much so. Going to be a tough game. Unlike City though it does feel that scoring first will be a complete game changer.

Smacks of Ferguson buying the players.

I hope Terry plays. I'd set up against us with players who can play full back at centre back if at all possible. Ivanovic & Luiz. That said, Cahill's been terrific this season. A really good one on one defender. Terry's looked good when I've seen him but still needs some looking after.
