Who Will Win the First Ever UEFA Europa League??

[Chris]

I can see you crashing out in the semis but I don't think you will win. I don't think you have the quality to match other sides.

id love to see atletico winning some silverware eventually, but after this season its not looking likely :\ id have to go for juve for most realistic winners

 

[Deslandes]

Well, I hope Benfica wins it, no need to say why. as dmf said, we are doing really well this season and winning a continental competition would be great in every terms, however, I have to admit that there are really good (and stronger) teams, like At. Madrid, Liverpool, Juventus, Valencia and Roma. But besides those, I think we can defeat every team. Just hope that today Everton beats Sporting Lisbon

 

[Jack Fulham]

I'm a Liverpool fan and I couldn't care less about Europa League, sure we are probably the best team left in it but it's a pretty lame trophy. I doubt rather will care to much about it, although I'd imagine we would get to the semi-finals without to much trouble.

That is exactly the view you shouldn't take, its the only trophy you can realistically win this season and yes you would probably get ridiculed by Man United fans if you did win because they view it as a "Mickey Mouse Cup". I highly doubt you will make it to Semi finals without much trouble although I am sure you could, you are really under estimating the ability of teams in the competition. I think you are very lucky to of got the draw that you did.

I am highly anticipating the Shakhtar game at Craven Cottage tonight, probably one of the biggest games I've seen Fulham play in my life time, I hope we don't concede though because we know crucial away goals are in Europe. I am sure it will be a very good game, I am looking forward to see a few FM legends play in Douglas Costa and Alex Texiara who have both recently signed for Shakhtar.

Even as a member of the kop who has lost some faith in the way his team is being ran from all sides, i'm still saying liverpool, we have more than enough class, we just have to utilise it

And to Andyyyyy, its still a trophy more than what we've won in the last few years, and we need the money winning it would bring, nevermind the qualifier spots for the champions league, adding the income from the qualifiers aswell ... It may not be the champions league, but winning it is a big step forward, and if we can't, we have more problems than people thought!

 

[DarylBentham]

i doubt liverpool can even win the europa league this season, especially with the way gerrard is performing its aweful to see

 

[FM10Spurs]

Rubin or Roma, maybe Athletic?

 

[joel-lfc]

I think after last night, Liverpool need to up there game if they want to win it. I was at the game and at first we was attacking them. then it was just simple passing game. We was no real threat. I hope we win this.

But i think Valenica, Roma, Juve all big threats. Also you missed everton out the poll. Id like to have them in the final ( Liverpool v Everton )

 

[Eliteg]

Shakhtar would be up there imo. Liverpool were favourites untill there display the other night? would rather have 4th place than the Uefa champions League reserve trophy, wouldnt fit very well in the trophy cabinent

 

[Gatid]

Cant decide on two, its either Shakhtar they've got a quality side or its Fulham knocking them out and winning it.

I think i might vote other.

Amen.

Got the knocking them out bit but winning it might be out the question.

 

[Jack Fulham]

Who was that saying Shakhtar will win it, fine defensive display from the team today, Shakhtar must learn that you can win matches on corners and procession of the ball, to be fair, they have one of the finest technical sides I have ever seen play, they make Juve look easy but you can't pass the ball into the net, if they had a bit more edge, Shakhtar would be one of the best in Europe.

We have the quality but the players can't be arsed anymores.And don't get me started on Aquilani(Know you didn't mention him like,but )
You know he's not doing well when lucas looks like a god compared to him.If he weere to pick his act up,that would be a lot of pressure off.Too bad he won't though

How did Douglas Costa play? I think he plays for them.

Great win for Fulham, would love to see an all English final.

Douglas came off the bench and set up Shakhtar equaliser, plenty of pace and skill in the kid, him and Ilsinho without a doubt Shakhtar's best players, shame they can't tackle though, they don't seem to have the finishing touch though, Schwarzer handled them pretty comfortably.

 

[Max]

If Shakhtar had a lethal striker they'd be class.

 

[westham234]

I would love and English team in the final, but if it was out off Fulham or Liverpool, i would have to choose the scouse, as no disrespect to Fulham as they play lovely stuff and i fancy them against Juve, however i think it would look bad on English football as I doubt they would be able to fill out their allocation for the final.

 

[iNickStuff]

I dunno why so many people gave voted Liverpool to win.Werder Bremen,Roma,Benfica or even Unirea could beat them on their days.Raga will be too busy making and breaking promises to the Liverpool fans that they will make it into the top four by the end of the season,rather than taking consideration to what is now know as Champions League no. 2

any team but Liverpoo ftw.

 

[stigen]

whaat? Liverpool - 26 votes, seriously
I hope Wolfsburg will win, like Grafite so much, but will see

 

[Kylo]

dont forget shakhtar, a very tough team

They definatly have a fantastic chance of winning, due to the amazing performance against Fulham. :wub:

Nah, i'd say Juventus, They have in my opinion, the best sqaud in the cup.
