perfect encapsulation of the tactical differences between last season's team and the current
version.

Liverpool kick off the group stage tomorrow night at Anfield.
I'm a little out of sorts today after an hour and a half at the walk-in clinic, I feel confident
in saying that I left with more than just the bronchitis with which I entered.
But it's good fortune for me that the Europa League is upon us, because the trend of me not
knowing sh*t about the opposition continues.

Goals:
Cole 1'
Tanase 13'
Ngog 55' (pen) 90+1'

Scoring four should be cause for a Mardi Gras-esque celebration, complete with nudity and dancing
in the streets, considering Liverpool's goal return so far this season.

Hodgson's named a strong squad for tomorrow's match; only Gerrard and Agger are missing from the
"first XI" – if we can say that Agger's still a first-team regular.
