Liverpool winger Ryan Babel has dismissed reports that he is looking to leave the club in

the Premier League this term.
While the 22-year-old is keen to be playing more regularly as he looks to seal a place in Bert van
Marwijk's Holland squad for next summer's World Cup finals, he insists he does not want to make a
move away from Anfield in search of more first-team action.

It's early November and we're still another seventh months until the tournament starts but I
must admit that the injuries to Rio Ferdinand and Steven Gerrard
are beginning to worry me. According to Radio 5, Gerrard hasn't trained for two weeks and
Ferdinand's overall fitness this season may have contributed to some of his indifferent
performances when he has appeared for Manchester United.

Gerrard out. Johnson out. Aurelio out. Torres half-fit. Several other players doubtful. Two defeats
in three CL games. Third in the CL group table. eight defeats since the start of the season.
Liverpool have no chance of beating Lyon on their own ground, right? WRONG.
Liverpool thrive on being underdogs and if history has proven one thing about the club it's this:
in times of adversity, and when everything looks hopeless, Liverpool can and will triumph.

Anyone who said the group stages are boring is proved wrong big time, with big teams slipping, and
small teams fighting, the group stages will be fought to the death.

Lyon, although the reds aren't out of the competition mathematically, they will need many results
to go their way so that they can go through to the knockout stages.

Arsenal v AZby nineinchmail
There's not much else to say other than that that was a sublime performance by Arsenal. The
trophy draught is frustrating, but honestly, when Arsenal plays like they did last night,
dominating another club through sheer skill, technique, and teamwork, it just reminds me how lucky
I am to root for Arsenal.

Liverpool was so close to victory yesterday in Lyon. After giving Lyon their best for 83 minutes, a
Ryan Babel wonder goal broke the deadlock, handing Rafa and the Reds a lifeline in Group E. A win
against the French powerhouse would throw them back in the thick of things. But it was not to be,
as Lisandro Lopez capitalized on some poor Liverpool defending to snatch a 1-1 draw that sealed
Lyon's passage to the knockout stage.

qualify.
An entertaining set of Champions League games threw up some unexpected results, great games and
the odd ninja (but not a very effective one). Almost all of the big names have a chance to reach
the knockout stages, even though the likes of Bayern and Liverpool have made it very, very
difficult for themselves.
