Re: Official Europa League>>>>>>>>>CL thread 2017/18

[Firenze]

Napoli, Bayern, Sevilla, Dortmund, Atletico and Monaco are heading to the premier competition boys.

We need to sneak our way to a final (ala United) @Arsenal fans

we 'sneaked' into the final because we didn't have to worry about the Etienne's or Rostov's of the world and were favorites from day 1 until we won it lad

you don't have that luxury, plenty of those D list teams would be favorites against you, obvious that a CL knockout team win it this year unless they don't take it seriously, then Arsenal will.

[Kaladin]

Put it this way you pleb, if United was in EL and those teams got seeded, United would NEVER win EL, case closed

[Firenze]

we're in the CL battering teams, same as the league. Played Madrid twice in pre season beat them once and narrowly lost the other lmao. Of course we would smash all of those teams you listed. We're a top 6 team in Europe. While you're not even top 40 (which is why you stand 0 chance of winning the EL even if those teams don't end up in it). Case closed.

Preseason

We DESTROYED Bayern in Preseason

Battering teams in Europe



Unreal group that, if i hadn't known better i'd think you're in EL

You're not a top team anything bud, so before you get knocked out by Real in the next round, have some humility will ya

Milan won't even reach EL quarters in this state, maybe next year. And that's if they don't finish lower than 6th in the league, which is unsure.

Winter mercato is therefore extremely important: a winger and a proper CM will improve them big time. Topping this fishermen group D is easy, but with the current squad, i doubt they can beat teams like Hoffenheim, Real Societis or whatever else of this level in the KO round...

Balotelli with a goal from a Sneijder cross, is it 2010 @robes?!

Then Caicdeo scores off the FIFA kick off glitch

Premier competition living up to its name

[rincon]

Balotelli playing well. Very mobile and making himself always available. Looks really different from his worst version.

The ingenious Lucien Favre is making it happen. I think he should be regarded a serious contender for the Heynckes succession tbh.

As for the Lazio goal, vintage Dante lmao

I'm happy for him. It does not erase a career of stupidity but this could be his Cassano at Sampdoria adventure

This is a fun match up. Shame Lazio dropped Alberto, Immobile, De Vrij and Lucas for this match but still a decent 11 being fielded. Inzaghi is already hyped for bigger things, his record with Lazio is fantastic

[RealGunner]

are lazio playing well?

[rincon]

Yes. Nice started better, now Lazio got comfortable. Will probably go 1-1 until HT.

[Hapless_Hans]

LOOOOOOOOOL the Nices left back just nutmegged and dribbled a Lazio attacker 10 yards from his own corner flag

[Hapless_Hans]

are lazio playing well?

Nah. Nice the superior team so far. They're getting better and better in recent minutes though

Nice isn't creating anything, they just have possession without chances. Lazio has been more threatening.

Add Parolo and Basta to the list of players dropped. With Anderson unavailable as well that's 7 starters missing from the lineup. Inzaghi seems like taken from that terrible period around 2010 where no italian team took EL seriously.

Nice should do a lot better.

[RealGunner]

This is Nice's B team as well

[rincon]

Crap approach from both then.

[RealGunner]

Well, it's the story of EL. Specially bigger teams. No one takes this seriously till qualifying rounds.

We are playing a CM, a RB and a confident lacking CB in our back 3 lol.

[rincon]

Its still a fun match. Need to wait for Milan and Atalanta to see teams playing EL matches like each are Cl finals

[Kaladin]

Main event still an hour or so away, Cutrone starting alongside Silva

[Hapless_Hans]

Main event still an hour or so away:

Yeah, really looking forward to Everton Lyon

[Hapless_Hans]

Nice have changed gears after HT and have sped their play up.
They're getting close to scoring the 2-1 here

[rincon]

Immobile and Luis Alberto on for Nani and Di Gennaro

[RealGunner]

Did Nice bring on Koziello and Plea to reply that lol?
