To be fair, there is the price of the flight to take into account aswell mate.
If Rafa starts with Aquilani in the away leg I'll run down Church Street bollocko on a Saturday afternoon.

They'll probably play us off the park and then we'll end up with their Manager for 6 years.

*speculates on what would have been had we been defeated by a certain other Iberian team back in the day*

Alberto Aquilani has been ruled out of Liverpool's Europa League clash with Benfica, manager Rafael Benitez today confirmed.
The Italian international sustained an ankle injury in training this morning and won't be with the Reds' squad which flies to Lisbon later today.
"He will not be available for this game," said Benitez. "He had a problem with his ankle this morning and we have to fix it.
"It doesn't seem too serious but it's the same ankle as before and so we'll have to analyse the situation carefully."
Benitez also confirmed defender Martin Kelly will undergo a knee operation today which will rule him out of action for the rest of the season.

Yes we're going to have to keep it tight in Lisbon, compact and shit but we need to attack as well.
If we go out with the mentality of keeping a clean sheet and getting 0-0, we're fucked. Benfica will break us down eventually.
I'm really worried about this game tbh.

Oh, and for anyone who hasn't watched Benfica, they're kinda like newcastle Keegan-stylee, in that they attack for 90 minutes. In Cardozo, Di Maria, Aimar, Saviola and Ramires they have genuine threats all over the fucking place.
Aimar - the best player that never was.
[/quote]
Except they must be able to defend too.
They've conceded 5 goals at home this season.

8pm, Channel 5 (UK).
We're not on channel 5 are we? I missed that one living abroad. Fuckin el. The Europa Cup is up there with Family Affairs.
This will be tough, I can see them beating us at their place tonight. At Anfield? Who knows.
Have they still got that mountain at the back, Luisao?

If we can carry our Sunderland first-half form (as opposed to tactics, which will obv.be very different) over into this game, it'll be tough for them too. If we play with that kind of fire in our bellies we can take anybody.
I think this is where our Europa League run ends.
Couldn't have got a worse draw.
