In it this shirt
Artur Boruc saved his way through the Champions League Qualifying Rounds - Beating Spartak Moscow on penalties at Parkheain this shirt...
And Remained un-beaten at Paradise through out the Champions League Campaign - Beating AC Milan, Benfica and Shaktar at home to book the clubs place in the knock out rounds for the second consecutive year
