Valencia are obviously the best in the bunch and I would expect us to qualify with them.

Trips to Russia are never easy. But I would expect us to get 4 points from both Sp. Moscow and Basel (if not 6 from them) and split honours with Valencia.

Rather our draw than Newcastle's.

much rather ours than Arsenal

pretty pleased with the draw here. it is never easy in the champions league, but there will be no excuses if liverpool do not advance.
