Since Liverpool are starting their Europa League campaign tonight, may as well start this thread now.

This will be rodgers first season in Europe, so I expect he'll look to have a solid competition. I reckon AVB will take this competition more seriously than Redknapp and Newcastle will want to do well for sure. Hopefully these three teams will do well and help England's co-efficient points.

As for the CL, we're retaining it :jordan2

FUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKK

I'm beyond hyped for this. Titanic match.

I'll probably never cheer for United like this again.

While i am looking forward to the Man Utd V Real game tonight like everyone else i can't help but think that the Dortmund V Shakhtar game will be the pick of tonights games. Both teams have some excellent young players that love to attack, even though Shakhtar have lost Willian they still have a host of other good brazilians. Plus both Dortmund and Shakhtar have two of the best AM players in europe at the moment in Gotze and Mkhitaryan.

I had a feeling Vidic wouldn't start. He can't play two games in a week anymore. I don't mind Welbeck starting, he has pace and strength and a lot of energy. The only downside is he's not really a winger and he doesn't have that partnership that Rafael/Valencia have. Still, I think Welbeck can do a good job.

Re: UEFA Champions/Europa League 2012-13 Thread

didnt expect vidic to start, he wouldnt play two games in the space of a few days, surprised about the midfield, carrick is the only natural central midfielder


:fergie.

Plus side we could have a class 11 out vs reading in the fa cup with the likes of valencia, vidic, ando, cleverley, nani, giggs, hernandez not playing tonight

LOLBECK

Is Welbeck a midfielder now? Both teams not holding back on attack at least.

This better be a cracker.

Sir Alex starting Welbeck, Kagawa, Van Persie and Rooney. A tactical mistake in my opinion. Should be a fun game tonight.

Really suprised to see Welbeck included. I thought Valencia would be the natural winger and obvious choice due to his pace and tracking back abilities. Fergie must feel Welbeck can do that job, time for Welbeck, Kagawa and Rafael to have the games of their lives.

Souness is such a negative nancy about Utd. Schmeichel talks so much sense. Love the way he keeps referring to Utd as "us" and "we". Best 2 pundits going old Fergie boys :fergie

Positive team selection. Harsh on Cleverly to miss out after the season he's had. Faith in Welbeck and Rafael if Ronaldo stays out left. 2 away goals would be lovely. Pepe not playing is a boost. Varane is boss though.

Settled for watching Shakhtar/Dortmund on a stream, with Real/United on TV. Shall be hard to keep my attention dividied.

As for the negativity around Welbeck, hes been fine for the past few months he has played. Some great performances, some average ones. Its a big game, and I see him stepping up. Charging down at Coentrao I believe, who will have no support.

Coentrão almost scored with his right foot? I'm shocked.

Very lively start to the game from Real Madrid.
