If you beat Porto atleast once then you’ve got the good chance of progressing to KO stage!!

I was really surprised by the scond Toulouse game. They lost at home but fought. When they went to Anfield, they just gave up.
Last time we played Liverpool, we won and passed to the next round in the 2004 UEFA Cup. But we had a team with as much spirit as they had skills. Barthez, Drogba and Beye being leaders helped a lot in Anfield.

I’d like to see Cisse score too. He’s not one of my favorite by any means, but I’d be happy to see a French club at least put up a semblance of a fight at Anfield (as opposed to a total collapse aka Toulouse).

Cisse played his time in Liverpool. It would have been nice for him to be healthier during it (he is fun to watch) but I don’t think many Liverpudlians lost much sleep over him leaving and I don’t think they will lose much more over him returning.

Beat Benfica twice and steal one from Porto and you guys will be fine.

Easier said than done, though….

For the moment, Benitez made the right choice when he told Cissé to leave Anfield…

1 goal in 5 games isn’t really what Benitez was looking for… when he has Torres, Kuyt, Voronin and Crouchie in the changing room.

I don’t think he has any ill will against the players. He and Gerrard are good friends apparently and he still has alot of respect for Benitez. What he said was he wished to go there with Marseille and show them they made a mistake not trusting him.
I’ll keep you posted anyway

Cisse will never learn. If he’d kept his mouth shut in the first place, he’d probably still be wearing a Liverpool shirt. He dug his own grave at Anfield. Please keep all us Liverpool fans informed of what Djibril has to say prior to our meetings, I’m sure Stevie-G will be amused. With some of the best slide tacklers in the world in Gerrard, Mascherano, Sissoko, and Carragher, it’d probably be best if he said some kind words.
