The stages at which Liverpool and Chelsea faced each other in the Champions League.

 

[Haarithan]

That'll be it.

----------

Five times in as many years (2004-05 to 2008-09), Liverpool and Chelsea faced each other in the Champions League. Off those five ties, both sides tasted success over the other TWICE (Liverpool - 2004-05 & 2006-07; Chelsea 2007-08 & 2008-09), with both the legs during 2005-06's meet in the group stage ending goalless.

Phwoar! How'd you figure that out?

 

[Auwais]

Haari likes asking questions involving 'Pool.

 

[JBlues08]

Silly me! How could I not thought of that?!!

By the way Haarithan, your phrasing for that question is confusing.

Just went through previous pages and you're right - 4 off my last five questions directly/indirectly involved Liverpool. Wasn't intentional though.

Here's a question not involving 'Pool

"People talk about Ronaldo, but when you look at the assets of Gabby, you can put him in the same bracket"

The speaker of the above lines?

 

[JBlues08]

Think that would be Stiliyan Petrov.

 

[Haarithan]

Damn that went quick. Was he serious there, Petrov?

Sorry for that, but 'cycle of events' was the best phrase I could think off, at that moment.

 

[JBlues08]

Didn't read the news but saw the headline.

----------

Try this one.

1.

"I like 1-0 wins"

2.

"There are two great teams on Merseyside; Liverpool and Liverpool Reserves"

3.

"If something has gone wrong, we say it. He is almost a Yorkshireman with a Portuguese accent"

Was just kidding there. It happens in exams anyway.

First one sounds very familiar, has to be one out of Mancini/Ancellotti.

Second one's definitely me!

Third one is a comment on AVB I guess, no idea as to who said that though.

1. Think carefully.

2. Yeah right! Liverpool fans should know the answer though.

3. Nope. It's not about AVB.

 

[Haarithan]

Okay, might as well go for Mancini on the first one, no real idea on the other two.

Edit: NM.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

The second is definitely Bill Shankly.

----------

First I'd go with Mourinho.
