For what its' worth so far, give Ludogorets credit for hanging w/the Reds' thus far; they seem to have matched us thus far and, quoting Fox Sports' feed, "there hasn't been the one-sided destruction we expected to see". Then again, we're only 45 minutes in, so things could still change. Quoting Brendan Rodgers from prior to today's match (BBC):
Quote:
 
"We'll respect them like we would if we were playing Real Madrid," said Rodgers. "They play an open, attacking style and they'll come here with confidence."

I agree; they've given as good as they've gotten...I give Luds' props for not letting the pressure of Champions League get to them...then again, things could be worse for Luds, Macca: they could be facing Real Madrid over at the Bernabau instead of Basel.

Some nice build up play but yet again we are lacking some clinical finishing in front of goal.

...speaking of Jordan Henderson, Liverpool confirmed yesterday that he is the team's new vice-captain. :)

*reads Macca's post* No problem; they mentioned it on the Fox Sports halftime show..I figured Hendo would be the next vice...if he stays w/the Reds' long enough, odds are he'll succeed Gerrard eventually as captain...hopefully, not for a few more years, though.
