Basel lost also. Consolation at least. Gonna need a big performance in Bulgaria and again at Anfield to get out of the group.
Would we benefit from not getting out of group stage? We made CL, good experience for players and manager now time to focus on domestic comps to make sure we're there again next year to build on what we have gained?
Yeah that did cross my mind but it's the Champions League. Gotta go for it!
Also, 3rd in the group gets put in the Europa League. Would much prefer a CL knockout game.
Yeah, good point around Europa
