The Europa League 2017/18(Use the SF thread to discuss the current match)

Wilshere has looked good tonight, admittedly against poor opposition.
 
Both German teams currently playing behind again :lol:
We suck so hard this season.
 
Any particular reason for that or just a perfect storm of bad results?
No idea really. Maybe our decline has made everyone else lazy? I blame Carlo! :D

Apart from that we have a lot of unexperienced teams in CL and EL. It shows.

How come you have a lot of unexperienced teams in Europe?

The traditional ones mess up in the league last season?

Yep. Wolfsburg, Bayer, Schalke, Mönchengladbach all below top 7. The likes of Hoffenheim and most of all Leipzig played great seasons, but their inexperience is laid open on the international stage. Köln is struggling terribly in the Bundesliga, too, sitting at rock bottom.
So all in all, a lot of negative factors come together this season.
 
Zorya, Red Star, Konyaspor, Lazio, Lugano, Nice, Ostersunds, Plzen, Rosenborg and Zenit are up at HT, while Marseille draw.
