April 20, 20232 yr I didn't even notice before but it's funny today to see that Arsenal were the pre-season favourites for this competition. That is probably the hardest route to the final we could have got but I think we have a great chance of winning the Europa League this season, of course Sevilla are the specialists of this competition and have knocked us out in recent years but we should be able to get past them this time. And get past them we haven't! I really thought we had a good chance to win the Europa League this season but we remain winless against Sevilla who will probably get their name on this trophy yet again. Hopefully at least we avoid this competition entirely next season.
April 20, 20232 yr That was a stinker of a performance. Not sure why Utd seemingly get absolutely battered away from home. Yeah they can point to a few injuries/suspensions but they’ve had similar performances like this with those players too.
April 20, 20232 yr Ha all the way to the Q-Finals via group games in Moldova and Cyprus and you get dumped out in mid April, what a waste of energy 😂😂😂
April 20, 20232 yr Author Almost comical the first and third goal we conceded, what were Maguire and de Gea doing?
April 21, 20232 yr Author Roma scored two goals in extra time to come from behind against Feyenoord and reach the Europa League semi-finals. Jose Mourinho's side, trailing 1-0 from the first leg, took the lead after an hour through Leonardo Spinazzola. Igor Paixao's late goal looked to be sending the visitors through but Pablo Dybala struck in the 89th minute to force extra time in Rome. Stephan El Shaarawy and Lorenzo Pellegrini then made it 4-1 on the night as Roma won 4-2 on aggregate. Roma also beat Feyenoord last season in the final of the Europa Conference League. They face Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals after the German side comfortably beat Union Saint-Gilloise 4-1 in their second leg to win 5-2 on aggregate. Elsewhere, Italian giants Juventus narrowly booked their place in the last four with victory over Sporting Lisbon and will take on Sevilla next.
April 21, 20232 yr Our time was up the moment we drew Sevilla. Facing them in this competition is liking going up against Rafa Nadal at the French Open. I can forgive this result if we win the Semi on Sunday, otherwise the whole season may as well have ended after the Carabao Cup.

May 31, 20232 yr Congratulations to Sevilla. Nice try, Roma, but they're just invincible in this competition.
May 31, 20232 yr Next season's tournament will, of course, be the most important competition in the history of European football :D
June 1, 20232 yr ^ Reminds me of when Didier Drogba was swearing at the TV camera after Barcelona knocked Chelsea out of the Champions League.
