Oi, stop belittling it.
The Europa League 2017/18(Use the SF thread to discuss the current match)
- Thread starter Santi_Mesut_Alexis_87
- Start date
That's a very defensive lineup, most of all
Unfortunately it's not. The old UEFA Cup was a huge trophy, almost as important as the European Cup, and most times even stronger in terms of competition
The Europa League is the UEFA Cup's stupid cousin who lost all its money in a poker game and now lives off scraps on the street
Exactly!
True, but we often play these players in the Europa League.
A bit harsh. Viewed from England, Spain or Italy it might be. But it gives a lot of clubs from lesser footballing nations a day out in the sun - and that in itself is worth something for football as a whole.
Astana-Villareal 2-3. Villareal are qualified.
Almost 1-0 to us! Good chance by Wilshere to Maitland-Niles.
Penalty to Nice. 1-0 Balotelli.
Don't know if it was a cross or a shot. Ospina saves though.
Balanced game atm.
Hertha, Vitesse, Lokomotiv Moscow, Red Bull and Zenit are all up.
The control and the weight of the pass between the very top players vs the rest is just staggering. Cologne player cracking turn and the pass was shit. It was intercepted but bloody hell.
2-0 Nice and 1-1 Copenaghen.
Coquelin hits the post! Unlucky!
What is with BT sport that they seem to attract bad pundits like a moth to a flame? John Hartson is like Shearer after a whack on the head.
Nice move by Welbeck, but crap shot in the end.
Bilbao equalize against Hertha.
It didn't last long. Hertha up again.
It's that man again..
Bollocks.
I do feel sorry for Bilbao this season. Not just theirs.Bollocks.
Ostersunds up! If they win they are qualified!
They cannot stop conceding at least a goal a game and are relying on Aduriz.
Lazio equalize and 2-0 Zenit.
Their squad don't look bad though.
2-0 Red Bull right at the end of the first half.
Think they miss Muniain badly. He seemed to be showing the form his early potential promised and he can score goals.
0-0 HT. Should be at least 1-0 up, despite playing slowly.
Great little talent who has never stepped up completely.
Koln must be a worse team than benevento, unbelievable
Also, Luis Alberto used to play for liverpool?
Also, Luis Alberto used to play for liverpool?
Yeah, Cologne are fecking shit. Should be up.
Just found found he was that Luis Alberto
Lugano, Lokomotiv Moscow and Plzen up.
C'mon score! They are fecking shit.
Maitland-Niles playing really well.
Half-a-chance for Cologne now.
You only need a point. Famous last words from a United fan.
Whoops! Penalty to Koln. 1-0. Sorry Santi.
Lol typical! Penalty to Cologne
That looked a dive. It's Arsenal though so feck 'em.
That was a dive!
