It can be an advantage yes, but it's not really that decisive....we lost to Barcelona at home, but beat them in the Nou Camp.....we lost tonight that's obviously true, but we were never at any point outclassed.
The build up has said how Kaka will murder us, how Seedorf will run us ragged, how Gattuso will rip us apart.....were those 3 even on the pitch??
to me it's as simple as this, Liverpool were the 2nd best team in Europe this season, possibly even the best, obviously the result says we can't be the best but i believe we are equally as good as milan at the very very least.
Domestically we have been a bit poor, the slow start cost us again and we never had a chance of catching up, hopefully next season this will change.If we'd have had some of United's luck i'm sure we'd have been closer, but that's for another day lol.
i look forward to next season, i really do!
