We were linked to Moussa Dembele in the past were we not?

And (Champ Manager legend) Kim Kallstrom. Why he'd swap Lyon for our struggles, I don't know.

No idea TCQ.

Cheers Topman.

Wouldn't mind having those two in our 11.

When will Wenger buy a goalkeeper, alumina is a liability.

Must say watch arsenals fourth from tonights game, eduardo does a 25 yard back heel with out looking straight onto arshavins right foot on the run.

I agree about the commentators on ITV, its so one sided it's sickening

Of course it's one sided, it's a British team against a foreign team. Why would it be neutral?

That's pushing it, don't you think?

On the up side at least Fiorentina are doing their part tonight

It should be neutral it's not Liverpool TV

GET IN YOU BEAUTY

Have some of that ITV

My only concern about them getting knocked out is that Rafa will be gone my the time we play them next month :unsure:

Looks like the yanks may have just dropped their asking price by a few £100m after that :lol:

Ryan Babbel gets longer than 5 minutes on the pitch tonight and surprise surprise he scores :rolleyes:

Superb strike followed by a cross so bad that it goes out of play on the far side and suggests his boot is the shape of a 50p piece. Sublime to the ridiculous.

Even when it was 1-0 to the Scousers they still were not going to qualify. They had to beat Lyon by more than Lyon beat them at Anfield (3-1) to be in with a realistic chance in the last two games.

Their remote chance now comprises beating Fiorentina 3-0 or 4-1 etc and a prayer mat for other results.

They were out before tonight and are still out.

When they were winning 1-0 they had a very good chance of qualifying.

Now their chances are slim, but they could still do it.

They didn't because to qualify they had still to get ahead of one of Lyons or Fiorentina. At 1-0, Lyon were winning on aggregate so Lpool needed to get more points than them. Fiorentina were stuffing Debrecen so that meant even if they won in Lyons, they still needed a 3-0 win against Fiorentina at Anfield. Hardly a very good chance of qualifying in my book.

Lyon won 2-1 at Anfield, so they only needed another goal at 1-0 in Lyon to give them a better head to head record, which makes Babels late miss even worse.

Had they won last night they would have "simply" needed to win their last two games, one of which is a fairly easy game by Champions League standards. With Lyon and Fiorentina still to play it would have virtually guaranteed that 9 points from those three games would have put them ahead of one of them, so their head-to-head record wouldn't have come into play.

Reset the table to a 1-0 win to Liverpool in Lyon.

Lyon Pl4 GD+5 Pts 9

Fior Pl4 GD+5 Pts 9

Lpol Pl4 GD-1 Pts 6

Games to play

Fior v Lyon

Deb V Lpol

Lyon v Deb

Lpol v Fior

Assuming the Hungarian lose the last two games, then Liverpool would have needed a favourable result for Lyon in Florence. If Fiorentina win that one Lpool have to beat Fiorentina by 3 or more or else they are out because Lyon are ahead on the head-to-head and Fiorentina are ahead head-to-head.

And considering Lyon have now automatically qualified you wouldnt expect them to take a full strength side to Florence.

I am praying for them to get done 1 - 0 in Hungary
