Citeh out.
:haha:
Corner
Hart sprinting up... head it just wide! :haha:
Full time.
Edit: It was a really good save actually, could have been going in.
Bilbao, Hannover, Valencia, AZ, A Madrid, Sporting, Mentalist and Schalke are through
Not to discredit Athletic Bilbao and Sporting Lisbon in any way, but this was a seriously pathetic European showing from the Manchester clubs. Two of the most expensive squads in the world and to just flop out like a bunch of amateurs is beyond embarrassing. One of them will pub their way to the title, so it will be forgotten instantly. Or conveniently, I should say. United's - especially this current United with future world 'superstars' like Jones, Wellshit, Smalling - energetic GHEL style is perfect for the Premier League. But overpowering teams will never work in the face of rapidly evolving Spanish and German teams.
Come on Wilshere, Oxo and Afobe.
Europa League draw is on now.
:popcorn:
I think everyone on the continent is following Barca's blueprint. It's clearly the most effective form of football now and if Prem sides want to progress in Europe again they need to rethink their strategy.
Would rather play like Real tbh and not some team 10 points off top spot in their league
AZ vs Valencia.
Schalke vs Athletic Bilbao.
Sporting vs Metalist Kharkiv.
Atletico Madrid vs Hannover.
Atletico Madrid/Hannover vs AZ/Valencia.
:popcorn:
Sporting/Metalist Kharkiv vs Schalke/Athletic Bilbao.
Two all Spanish finals are quite possible I would say.
Can Bilbao raise their game v a pub team outfit such as Schalke?
I reckon so, Bielsa will eat them otherwise.
I can't wait for the Copa Del Rey final.

Robert :doh:Quote:
Robert from London via text:Metalist Kharkiv only were promoted to the Ukranian top division in 1991 and have never actually won the Ukranian division, however they still remain only the 2nd Ukranian team to play in Europe.
Now this pitch is terrible.
Christ I've just thought I might have Channel 5 to look forward to next season :ilt:
Atletico 1-0 Hannover, Falcao. How many has he scored in the Europa League now?!

Very good chance for Huntelaar not so long ago. Schalke are playing well.
