Could be a tough night at their gaff. They did well tonight. Gave us a good game. Will do us well going forward and remind us to manage the game out better.

Still no credit for Salzburg? It wasn't all your fault, they played well. Was it their defence fault you scored 3 in the first half, or did you play well?

I think they were excellent. They have a decent record and score bags of goals. Not heard of some of their players but they work brilliantly as a team.

Bang on T bone

So if we can beat Genk twice I'm assuming we'll only need a draw to go through?

Possibly unless Napoli go ahead of us on h2h record
I think.

3 sides are on 3 points after 2.

Beat genk twice

Lfc 9
Napoli?
Salzburg?
Genk 1

My view would be that we would need 1 point at home to ensure we go through.

If say the ideal happened and both games between napoli and Salzburg are draws. Both have 5 points. We need a point in 5th game to ensure one side can't catch us.

If the worst happens and they exchange wins then both will have 6 and again we would need a draw in 5th game so prevent one side catching us.

The key thing is to put everything into beating genk home and away

So if we want a positive group we should cheer on napoli against salzburg?

napoli 10
LFC 9
Salzburg 3
genk 1

is that the ideal?

or
LFC 9
Napoli 8
Salzburg 4
Genk 1

??

Any way i see this the best way to be going is to beat genk home and away then one point is enough for 2nd and a 1-0 home win v napoli gets us first.
