      Europa League 2015/2016
      Jul 02, 2015 09:55:41 pm
      Started tonight, the mighty Hammers have just beaten Lusitanos of Andorra 3-0 at home.

      The Wiki page is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015%E2%80%9316_UEFA_Europa_League

      This year's, well next years final is in the home of FIFA ironically, so it would not shock me if a Qatar team won.

      St. Jakob-Park, Basel is the venue, home of FC Basel.

      As they say more to follow...

      Just had a quick look and Liverpool will definitely be in pot 2 for the Europa League draw no matter what happens in the Champions League and Europa League playoffs.

      Draw will be on the 28th August.

      Dortmund currently getting beaten away against Odd in Norway 3-2 with 30 minutes left. What on earth?! Southampton has just gone 1-0 down on the stroke of half time against Midtjylland. Daniel Agger's Brondby has just been battered 5-0 away against PAOK so it looks like we won't be seeing him in the Europa League this season.

      There's been a handful of surprise results in the first leg of the play-off round.

      Not a very good defensive performance from Agger's side, lost 5-0 to the mighty PAOK and the Greeks even missed a penalty.

      This alphabetical order for the groups is bullshit. Celtic get Ajax because group A is open and we get a mid week trek to Russia because B is the next group open. What happened to drawing groups as well? They do it in the Champions League.

      Wish Redknapp would F**k off. Was nothing but negative when predicting our result against Rubin and then commenting on it after the game. He's just made Spurs sound like Bayern against Arsenal the other night.

      Monaco ban Anderlecht fans following Paris attacks
      By Reuters

      Monaco has banned Anderlecht fans from entering the principality on November 26 when its Ligue 1 club takes on Belgian side Anderlecht in the Europa League following last Friday's deadly attacks in Paris.

      "The Monaco government has made the decision to ban the presence of the Anderlecht fans on its territory, and consequently at the Stade Louis II, on Thursday, Nov. 26, 2015, date of the game between the two sides in the Europa League," AS Monaco said in a statement on Tuesday.

      "This decision follows the dramatic events that happened in Paris, prompting the Monaco principality to raise its vigilance level and proritise the mobilisation of the police forces."

      Monaco added that European governing body UEFA and Anderlecht had backed the decision.

      Last Friday, three suicide bombers blew themselves up near the Stade de France, killing one, and gunmen attacked bars, restaurants and a concert hall, killing 128 others while 352 were wounded.

      I said when Augsburg were drawn out that I wouldn't mind them. Don't have to travel to the middle of nowhere which is a good thing. Bit of a mixed bag for the English teams so far. Man United with by far the easiest draw, we get Augsburg and Spurs get Fiorentina.

      A tie that I'm really interested in is Fenerbahce and Lokomotiv Moscow, Turkey vs Russia after all the political stuff that's been going on lately.

      Haha didn't even see the rest of the draw until now. Dortmund v Spurs is a tasty draw, think Dortmund will do them no problem,, Bilbao v Valencia should see the end of rat boy too unless the Pako revival gathers pace.

      Expecting last 8 to be:

      Shakhtar
      Sevilla
      Villarreal
      Bilbao
      Liverpool
      Lazio
      Dortmund
      Fenerbahce

      Don't even start me on that lad, my 2nd favourite football player after Suarez.

      We're into 6/1 2nd favourites behind Dortmund now, of course it's the Klopp factor but it does feel a little bit like destiny we're going to meet them in the final.  What a final that would be too, the atmosphere would be out of this world.

      Don't even start me on that lad, my 2nd favourite football player after Suarez.

      We're into 6/1 2nd favourites behind Dortmund now, of course it's the Klopp factor but it does feel a little bit like destiny we're going to meet them in the final.  What a final that would be too, the atmosphere would be out of this world.

      I can feel it in my loins bud.  :D

      It's going to be classed as an international game I suspect, hence the 37,500.

      Plus UEFA have already started selling tickets, the usual corporate crowd and when you take that away from the total left, it's not going to be a huge allocation.

      I put this in the wrong place so in here it goes.

      The perfect 10.

      Liverpool FC aim for perfect 10 - how 2-0 first leg leads usually lead to European success for Reds
       
      BY DAVID PRENTICE

      The Reds have taken a 2-0 first leg lead into a European second leg nine times before Thursday - and a 100% record

      It’s called the most dangerous lead in football.

      But for Liverpool, Thursday night’s 2-0 Europa League lead taken over Manchester United was the perfect result.

      Because the Reds have taken a 2-0 first leg lead into a European second leg nine times before Thursday – and they have a 100 per cent record of qualification.

      In fact the closest squeak came the very first time the Reds defended a 2-0 lead, way back in 1966 – and that was only because the away goals rule still hadn’t been introduced.

      Here we look at Liverpool’s history of 2-0 leads in Europe.

      European Cup 1st round - 1966

      The Romanians proved stubborn visitors to Anfield in the Reds’ second foray into the European Cup – but late goals from Ian St John and Ian Callaghan built a solid lead to take nehind the Iron Curtain a fortnight later.

      It was needed.

      Virgil Dridea pulled a first half goal back in the second leg, but Roger Hunt’s 50th minute strike appeared to have eased Liverpool’s progress into the second round.

      But nine minutes later Alexandru Boc made it 2-1 on the night, and when Mircea Dridea added a third in the 65th minute the scores were tied on aggregate.

      The away goals rule was still five years away so a replay on neutral territory was needed – Heysel Stadium in Brussels , and this time Liverpool had the tie sewn up by half-time with goals from Ian St John and Peter Thompson.

      Fairs Cup 1st round – 1967

      The 2-0 lead Liverpool established in the first round of the following season’s Fairs Cup enjoyed a crucial difference to their Petrolul experience – the Reds won 2-0 in Sweden.

      Tony Hateley scored both goals to make the home leg a stroll. Ron Yeats and Roger Hunt added further goals at Anfield before Dag Szepanski scored a late consolation to give the Swedes some solace on the flight back.

      UEFA Cup 1st round – 1972

      Liverpool were given a tough draw in the first round of the 1972/73 UEFA Cup – which ultimately became their first European trophy success – against an Eintracht Frankfurt side containing future World Cup winner Jürgen Grabowski.

      Kevin Keegan scored the early goal Anfield craved but it wasn’t until 15 minutes from time that Emlyn Hughes added a decisive second.

      The Reds shut up shop for the second leg in West Germany and a 0-0 draw, featuring a debut as a sub from young Trevor Storton, was enough to clinch the tie.

      UEFA Cup quarter-finals – 1973

      According to contemporary reports Dynamo Dresden started like a house on fire at Anfield in the quarter-finals of the competition – but this was Bill Shankly’s relentless Reds and they wore down the East Germans to score goals through Brian Hall and Phil Boersma.

      “Only the unrivalled brilliance of Ray Clemence denied the Germans,” reported Horace Yates – and the Reds anticipated a tough second leg.

      Instead “in their nine consecutive years on the Continent Liverpool can rarely have played so magnificently as they did last night,” reported the Echo’s Chris James. Kevin Keegan scored the only goal of the game against a Dresden team “reckoned to be the best club team ever to come out of East Germany and have not lost a home game in any competition for three years.”

      UEFA Cup 3rd round – 1991

      It was almost 20 years before Liverpool had a 2-0 first leg lead to defend in Europe once again – but this time it was a comfortable affair.

      Dean Saunders scored both goals as Liverpool won in the picturesque Austrian resort against Swarowski Tirol – having plundered four goals in an earlier round against Kuusysi Lahti.

      And he added a hat-trick in a 4-0 stroll in the second leg.

      UEFA Cup 4th round – 2001

      Michael Owen was at his predatory peak when Liverpool went to the Olympic Stadium in Rome for a UEFA Cup tie.

      The Reds had twice won the European Cup on the same venue – and Owen’s double gave them a historic hat-trick of triumphs.

      Both goals were necessary. Guigou scored the only goal of the second leg as Liverpool survived a frenzied Italian fightback to claim a place in the quarter-finals.

      UEFA Cup 3rd Rd – 2003

      Two superb strikes in four second half minutes – from Steven Gerrard and Harry Kewell – gave the Reds an advantage ahead of what was expected to be a testing trip to Bulgaria.

      It didn’t pan out that way.

      Goals inside 10 minutes from Gerrard again and Michael Owen effectively sealed the tie. The Bulgarians did level on the night after 40 minutes, but Didi Hamann almost immediately restored Liverpool’s lead on the night and then Sami Hyypia made it 4-2 – and 6-2 on aggregate.

      Champions League last 16 – 2008

      A late goal rush broke down a redoubtable defensive action by the Italians after former Everton defender Marco Materazzi had been dismissed after barely half-an-hour.

      The Italians did what they do best, and defended with discipline – but the loss through injury of key defender Ivan Cordoba cost them dear.

      Dirk Kuyt scored an 85th minute icebreaker, then three minutes later Steven Gerrard did his swashbuckling thing and made it 2-0.

      It undermined Inter to such a degree that they were never wholly convincing in the San Siro second leg and Fernand Torres scored a stunning breakaway goal to seal Liverpool’s place in the quarter-final.

      Europa League 3rd Qualifying round first leg – 2010

      David N’Gog got Roy Hodgson’s managerial tenure off to a flier with both goals in a 2-0 win in Macedonia.

      N’Gog also opened the scoring in the second leg before a Steven Gerrard penalty sealed Liverpool’s latest comfortable defence of a 2-0 first leg victory.


      Now time for a perfect 10?

      Everything about that entry is wrong. David N'Gog & Roy Hodgson...ugh. I've done well to barely remember that match.

      But as RedPuppy says - we're in the final. With Klopp and co. What a better situation to be in!

      Uefa need to take note their will be far more than 10,000 Liverpool fans .

      I think we'll go for it against Chelsea, but the WBA game will be influenced on the chance of getting a League based EL qualification position.

      With Ward and George injured, Vigouroux too old to play without registering and Fulton still involved with Portsmouth for the League 2 play offs we have nobody else.

      I can get over the fact that the stadium holds next to nobody but it's unreal that it's being held in a city that can't accommodate other fans without tickets to a high enough level. As if they thought only fans with tickets would travel :D. Considering it's the final they should have made plans for it to be somewhere that can accommodate a huge amount of fans for 1 or 2 of the biggest supported teams in Europe.

      If clubs are to take this competition seriously then UEFA should be leading they way by holding the final in larger stadiums, I don't understand why CL clubs get a bigger stadium knowing some big names can fall into this competition later on in the season....

      I'd imagine a hell of a lot of sevilla fans will be knocking theirs out as well as the corporate lot, they've got a final a week later at home and they won't have to take the chance of being surrounded by Scousers there.

      ;D

      Was hearing yesterday a lot won't be going because they need passports (Switzerland not in Europe) and can't get them in time but I have no doubt the Reds will outnumber everyone else by at least 3 to 1  ;D

      It reminds me of 2005 a little bit. We got given the best defensive team in the competition (Juventus) who had only conceded 2 goals up until that stage. In the semi’s we got the English champions (?) and a team who would soon become one of our biggest rivals and then in the final we got one of the biggest and most successful teams in the competition’s history in the final.

      This time around we get our biggest rival in the last 16, the supposedly best team and one of the most defensively sound teams left in the competition in the 1/4’s. In the semi’s we then get arguably the best defensive side in the competition (Villarreal) who are a team full of childish idiots and then in the final we get the most successful team in the competition’s history.

      We certainly never get an easy ride of it do we.

      Maybe we manage to get so many tickets because the people who originally buy them know they can make a killing selling them on to us. 

      Of course English clubs fans know we can't possible afford them, after all we have to go bin dipping to feed ourselves, share our houses with rats and we're all on the dole.  Maybe all those Reds who travel around the world are just other clubs fans in disguise, clinging onto the coat tails of our success or we've not paid for them in the first place but pick pocketed them outside the ground or more likely, snuck in without tickets   :f_whistle:

      No they won't know what's hit them and no we never get an easy ride mate  ;D

      Looks like we're going to have to re-register Bogdan before the final as we have no reserve goalies left.

      With Ward and George injured, Vigouroux too old to play without registering and Fulton still involved with Portsmouth for the League 2 play offs we have nobody else.

      Yikes!!
      Klopp could go in goal?

      I can get over the fact that the stadium holds next to nobody but it's unreal that it's being held in a city that can't accommodate other fans without tickets to a high enough level. As if they thought only fans with tickets would travel :D. Considering it's the final they should have made plans for it to be somewhere that can accommodate a huge amount of fans for 1 or 2 of the biggest supported teams in Europe.
      A 33,000 seat stadium is ridiculous for a final ,It's not even in the top 100 in Europe in terms of capacity.
