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

Apparently he really enjoy it in Östersund. Heard him in an interview on swedish television and his vision was to create a legacy at Östersund first before even considering something else. He's an amazing coach and should in all honesty get a shoot at one of the middle teams in the PL if he wanted to.
Personally don't know what more he can do there, only if he wants to win the Swedish League, anyway would be surprised if some of his methods would be apreciated in England or not.
 
Cologne is a cup team - two ins in the DFB Cup and now two in the EL but 0 in the league :D

First place and Cologne can still make the next round, i can live with it.
 
Yup Ostersund qualified, quite incredible.
 
Now please Mr. Wenger, stop taking the piss and play our best players in the knockout stage.
You won the group. Why risk important players tonight?

It's the same scenario as Utd last night. We didn't need to play with a full strength side. We're through unless we lose 7-0.

So be happy. If Whinger plays the kids in semi and final, then moan.
 
Amazing by Östersund really. It is certainly the best a swedish team has done for many years. Unlike many others though they have a very cheap squad with no real standout player really in my view. Fantastic management and yes we all know he is 100 times better than David Moyes and these dinosaurs. Tactially they have been spot on most of the times. I think one key aspect is I think the manager has also worked as a teacher before so he knows how to communicate the tactics to the players also in such a way so they can change it during the games and make it work. I think that is the future to be honest, but for it to work you need to teach the players very well so they can adjust with few instructions. If someone set up to hurt or stop you the players can then adjust with help from the coach during the games by simply saying let's change to tactics B or C. Key then is to work on multiple tactics before the games.

I know. It's just that i hate losing against shit teams :lol:
 
Atalanta fans have taken over Goodison? Have any evertonians even bothered to go?

He should go to Holland before trying his luck in England.

Why? Cause dutch managers like Frank De boar, LVG and Ronald Koeman are so bloody amazing?

I think his biggest problem in England is I think he has too advanced tactics for many of the more stupid players in the league. I think he could do well in a top team like Pep though or if he could build up a team with his methods over longer time. He will not get that in the premier league at West Ham or West Brom.
 
You know, Bonucci as a single defender or as a football player at large was never anything special, David Luiz level.
 
Everton went close to equalize twice already. Atalanta not looking so good of late...
