After Liverpool FC’s 3–0 win against Anderlecht in the European Champion’s League, I couldn’t help notice the discrepancy between their domestic and their European performances. In Europe this season (Champion’s League and Supercup) they have won 9 out of 11 matches (82%). Domestically (Premier League and Carling Cup) they have won only 4 out of 10 (40%). They've also lost three times as many matches domestically (3) than in European competitions (1).

But then, I suppose we’re all better off in Europe…!
