I think they have a great chance for the first time since I started getting into footy (about 1990). As long as they can keep Suarez fit that is. I know they're not a one-man team but he's really the lynchpin that the team performance swings around. If he's not scoring he's arranging, assisting, getting into shooting positions or marshalling the team. It's like Utd with Van Persie out now for the rest of the season is it? They're going to struggle even more than they were already now without him, even given the huge psychological boost this week in Europe.
Personally I'd love to see Liverpool do it. About time someone from outside of Manchester or London had a shot.
