Jamie Carragher has 'had enough' of the new Champions League format already after seeing who Liverpool could draw in the last 16. But their reward for performing well appears scant, with a probable match-up against European heavyweights Atletico Madrid or Juventus in the first knockout round. He said: 'I've just seen who Liverpool's potential opponents are, honest to God, this new format I've had enough of it. 'We finished top last year and got PSG, we finished third this year, listen to this, Atletico Madrid, Club Brugge, Galatasaray or Juventus, and we finished third!' Carragher replied: 'I know but what I'm saying is if you finish third you can't have them, you can't have Atletico Madrid in there, Juventus.'
