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

Well done to Celtic the other day. We're (Rangers) not going to be in Europe for at least 4 seasons, and it's still good to see Scottish teams do well, but it's not like I support Celtic on European nights, but I did support Hearts tonight.
I've always like Hearts outside of Rangers in Scotland, really good performance, to be proud of, hopefully the can get a goal away and go to extra time or something.

Always count on Scotish teams losing in Europe to make you some easy money :mark:

Sterling looks a prospect for Liverpool. Isn't ready for the important games yet but he looks a prospect. Adam was a shelfish prick all match trying to grab the headlines in Scotland. Shelvey and Carragher WOATing again.

Carra just got the fact that he's alway been there on his side. Otherwise yeah he wouldnt even be here anymore. Rather Coates got more time. That Borini miss was pretty bad too. Hopefully sterling gets either a decent run with us this year or a loan move to get more exposure to the league. As long as he can get game time.

At least we are ahead that's the main thing.

Not a terrible result last night considering the 9 changes we made. Some poor performances but Anita, Bigirimana and Marveaux looked good. Should be routine enough at home.

But I guess you have to play a weakened side when you get properly screwed over by the fixture list.

In terms of the Champions League I have a suspicion the title will end up in England with Manchester United.

City will be out in the knockout round. Chelsea out in Quarter Final and Real Madrid to lose the final.

yes, I did just make that mad assumption.

Re: UEFA Champions/Europa League 2012-13 Thread

Lots of people are really naive when it comes to Samaras. The biggest mistake people make is "he barely scores and he's a striker!", but he's not a striker. He's always played on left wing for Greece, and has played left wing for Celtic for over a year now. He started as a forward in the Dutch league and at Man City, but he's not a striker now.

His best is when he uses his power and pace to get at a defence. He was great against Helsinborg, and his best performance ever would be against The Team Formerly Known as Rangers in January 2011, when he just ripped them to shreds.

Celtic wont even get out of the groups if they qualify
Heard that every time before, and did it twice. Also got 9 points and didn't get through in 2001, which was so unlucky. Kayal, Wanyama, Samaras, Forrest, Hooper, Mulgrew--this is their chance to prove themselves on the big stage, and I have faith that they'll step it up.

You should have just posted the Nakamura free kick.

PACE?

My gran could run quicker than him backwards and she doesn't have any legs!

He's garbage other than the fact he is strong. He's poor in the Scottish League which basically means he might as well be a bin man.

A defender in Scotland. David Weir was a first team player at a title winning club a few years ago. I've seen him in the Old Firm games over the past couple of seasons and at the Euros. He was dreadful in about 75% of them.

There's absolutely no chance of Celtic doing well in Europe due to the fact they will struggle against actual quality as they don't play at a high level against a good standard of opposition.

I was about to say that you can criticise Samaras all you like, but for a guy of his size he is actually very quick.
