It is now becoming a Spring-Time tradition, Liverpool – Chelsea in the Champions League. We beat Chelsea twice to reach the finals in 2005 & 2007, however we did not make it last year (although we came close).
I do not enjoy it when Liverpool face English oppossion in the Champions League, not that I am afraid of them but because we play these teams often, it is nice to face teams that we would not normally face in the Premiership or domestic cups.
The Mancs got the easy route which is a bummer as I would have fancied them facing Bayern or Barcelona so they can work hard for a change. Our route would take us against the winners of the Barcelona – Bayern game and we could only face ManWho in the final.
