Hmm maybe, me being a Liverpool fan I worry about us playing in Turkey without Gerrard, Torres and Mascherano. Its ok playing the B team at home at Anfield but Turkey will be very hostile. I hope I am wrong and we cruise through.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011
In some ways I think Liverpool would benefit from losing tonight. Concentrate on the league instead.

Absolutely but I have a feeling it'll be a 0-0 bore draw and truly dreadful to watch.
I'd stop short of calling the Europa league pointless but it is an unnecessary distraction based on the number of games required to be played to progress. It's exactly this type of competition (champions league included) which fuels the big squad culture giving rise to unsustainable spending. It's progressively driving a bigger wedge between the big money teams and those who aren't so prosperous. By the time UEFA, FIFA and teh premier league decide that it's time for change it'll be too late.

He controlled a high ball with his arm, it wasn't a mere technicality, he controlled the ball using his arm and scored a goal.
Now I don't mind the handball, the ref should have spotted it but it happens quite often. Players will try to get away with gaining an advantage same as diving, being offside, and so on. As long as it's not a tactic decided as the start of the game I don't blame Defore, Spurs or even the ref (hard to spot at that speed).
However, there was no outrage this morning was there? Compared to the absolute vilification of Henry. That's my problem. The hypocrisy between British and Foreign players.

Gerrard will not start due to a recurring back injury and Torres will be rested. Joe Cole will probably start because he won't be playing in the next league game due to suspension.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011
Man United, Valencia, Rangers, Bursaspor - Not the greatest group but United should get though without problem
Chelsea, Marseille, Spartak Moskva, Zilina - Not too bad a group. Hard away game though
Arsenal, Shakhtar Donestsk, Braga, Partizan - Not awful. Should top that but the travel is not good.
Spurs, Inter, Bremen,Twente - Spurs or Twente runners up there IMO.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011
Hmmm, I bet the Manchester police are delighted with the Rangers draw.

There won't be anything like the number of travelling fans this time round. Plus I don't think they'll make an arse of the policing this time round.
That said I think anyone who decides to travel and get even remotely fighty will get pounced on very, very quickly.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011
I went through Albert Square in Manchester over a week after the last Rangers game and it still smelt like a giant unrinal.

That surprises me Derek.
I would have thought it would have been an all dayer for a good few being fairly local and against the English.
