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

Re: UEFA Champions/Europa League 2012-13 Thread

I hope Benfica faces more than one Premier League team in Champions League this year again. And sorry to United fans, for eliminating you guys in Champions League last year :troll.

The environment in both games against United and Chelsea were amazing, England is definitely the best country when it comes to audience and fans. Every other team of different countries we face ends up in at least one brawl or bickering. :no:
When I went to the Benfica x Man United game, I even ended up eating out at my stadium's bar with two United fans along with the mate I went with, and had a great conversation with them. Class gentlemen.


Hopefully a Chelsea rematch, I would love to see that happen, even if we lost Witsel :(
I'm going to see them vs Barcelona this year, let's see how that turns out :side:

And I hope we face Everton again, I miss spanking that F-Class team 7-0 in European competitions 8*D


You mad Mozza? :p

Dortmund have every chance, looking at their strongest side

Weidenfeller

Pisczek Subotic Hummels Schmelzer

Bender Kehl

Kuba Reus Gotze

Lewandowski

That's pretty strong and with Gundogan, Perisic, Scheiber, Felipe Santana all around they've got a good shot. Especially with the form Reus is in atm.

Not that Football Manager is at all accurate in predicting how good players are (I'm still waiting for Henri Saivet to become the next Pele). But it's amazing how shit Dortmund were even in the 2010 version when I played them and how they are going to be in this years, with pretty much the exact same team.

I think we'll line up with:

De Gea

Rafael Ferdinand Evans Buttner

Nani Fletcher Cleverley Welbeck

Rooney

RVP​

Put in Kagawa for Welbeck, Scholes for Cleverley and it's pretty close to our strongest available side IMO. Hope Fletcher has a big game, dying to see him back to his best.

Re: UEFA Champions/Europa League 2012-13 Thread

No real good games today maybe besides Benfica x Barcelona, all the big teams are facing pretty easy opponents.

But then again, Man United didn't even pass an average-easy group last year, so who knows :troll
