The Prestigious Europa League thread 2018/2019

The football hipsters will be all over it

Bit of a pity for them that they might play Ajax just as they have started buying some good players again. Tadic and Blind very good signings. Would be an exciting draw anyway if they get past Larnaca

Isn’t Sturm Graz Arnold Schwarzenegger’s team?

A huge ask for Dundalk to beat Larnaca .

the crowd isnt the biggest prize really
they’ll put 7k in tallaght @20 a head
money from uefa
240 for first rd
260 for 2nd
280 for 3rd + decent TV money

cork could beat rosenborg who have regressed a lot
they were very very lucky to beat the icelandic lads on away goals last time

huge game tonite
dundalk evens
AEK 5-2
youd have to fancy Dundalk on that “pitch”
they are missing a few and as previously discussed are a mish mash of journeymen brazilians and spaniads- maybe 1 cypriot will start

Adorjan must be injured and sean gannon as he is playing sean hoare i presume at Right full - cleary may go there?

Jesus Rogers is some bombscare

oh he is an absolute nightmare and Sava on the bench is worse
that was a very decent first half in fairness

Only watching since half time. Looks very even alright

AEK looking dangerous here now- looking more comfortable and controlled on the ball

I thought there’d be more of a clamour for a red card for that tackle.
