Europa League Discussion Thread

Ah well, I think we all remember that. DON'T WE HALBARD? Hah, just jokes, don't take it too seriously. I meant in the final stages

Don't mention anything about them losing, He will find something the referee done wrong in the match

 

[ajt09]

Meh. What a **** night for British football. Didn't catch the matches, just the scores.

 

[Pigeonman13]

although braga have done really well to get through and the were superb i the back i still hate watching teams who just sit back and hold for the draw
i just ruins the match and i really dont agree with it...

 

[Arrigo Sacchi]

Liverpool ready to splash out on plan B:

 

[Ride The Walrus]

They're not and whom I support is irrelevant.

They are through because Soto is a donkey who will give pens away from time to time and it's easy to press a team that has no pace, width or creativity.

The ref gave them a nice helping hand though as well with some ridiculous decisions but it wouldn't have mattered for all the reasons I stated above.

They're better than Liverpool but so are Bolton thesedays.

Soto's a hero.
Also, Bolton, better? That why we're ahead of them in the league? oO)
Get smarter, mate.

Only saw the Liverpool game, you'll be grateful you missed it.

No... At this stages football isnt about beauty at all... Idc if Porto wins the Europa League winning 1-0 1st leg and drawing second 0-0... And i am sure if Man Utd did it aswell you would be like "OMFG SAF YOU TATICAL MASTER" ... So shut up

 

[Athe~]

Awesome! FC Twente and PSV are through! Ajax got a can of whoop-*** though.

Well, Ajax asked for it. I mean, what were they thinking? One of their defenders during the first half was Blind!

...getting my coat.

Well done Braga! Well deserved win IMO. They got it tactically spot on and their defense was very well structured and disciplined.

I had a great games as them on FM10

I am currently playing Braga, so I guess it has something to do with me being happy for them

By 2 points ahahahaha.

Soto is a hero? He's slow, his only skill is the ability to head a ball hard and because no one else could you all fell in love with him. He's second rate like most of the squad and the sooner he's gone and the rest of them or at least most are squad players at best, the sooner Liverpool can look to move forward and have a brighter future. If you embrace mediocrity, you become mediocre. Don't believe me? Well that's why N'gog and Spearing were there to tuck Liverpool into their mediocre bed they made the week before when they also played ***** second rate players.

Get smarter? Wake up.

Bolton = over performing

Liverpool = massively under performing.

Basically Liverpool are above Bolton because they have Suarez. Bolton have a more solid and balanced first 11.

Porto To Win The Whole Comp

No.

I'm backing FC Twente after tonight.

EDIT; Sorry, botch.

 

[ajt09]

Yeah heard it was pretty pants like. Once they have a full strength squad, buy better players than they'll do a lot better next season. Long as they qualify in the league which they should the way they've been playing in the prem so far

 

[Nixon]

No.

I'm backing Zenit after tonight.

Good shout. Except they're out.

Didn't know that until I checked the report XD edited my post.

How is Suarez the only reason Liverpool are above Bolton? He's only played a handful of matches. Liverpool are majorly underperforming? Where realistically would you expect them to come? 5th maybe but they haven't had enough investment before NESV came in to be expected to come top 4

I'm sure everyone would be devestated at the club at the chance to concentrate on getting back into a competition that actually matters to big clubs. The UEFA Cup (As it will always be) is a stepping stone back to better things. It's great to win it don't get me wrong but at what cost? Progress? Stability in other competitions? Nah. You only risk that big for the CL.

Oh, Suarez's made what, 4 appearances, two substitute ones.He's hardly the reason we're 6th, despite how much I would bone him.
Bolton have much harder fixtures than us, and we're still getting over Hodgson's spell. We won Bolton away, they've got a good manager and a pretty average squad.

 

[Mike.]

much as i hate to say it, but liverpool > bolton.

N'gog made one of our only chances, and Spearing was on 10/15 minutes, and done more than Merieles in the whole 90.

Because without Suarez giving Liverpool the ability to beat United (which wasn't happening in a millions years if he wasn't there) then Liverpool are at best 2 points worse off and level or worse behind Bolton.

So you think Liverpool arn't underperforming? This is Liverpool's level? May as well not go out and spend on the follwing players they need.
