GWT: Europa League - Group Stages

[Savant]

Clearly the club knew Quansah was good enough.

Gravenberch is good. Needs a position but good.

He has a position. Midfielder.

 

[Power Man]

Union SG handled themselves well at Anfield, had some chances even with Amoura deserving a goal because he played very well. A player to keep an eye on and again a great find from Union.

Amoura, coming from ES Setif, my dad’s c’ub

 

[Eye of Ra]

why are aek athen fans allowed to use green laser on refs and ajax players? even on their eyes.

 

[Chimaera]

It’s early, but man, I see why Liverpool were willing to wait for Gravenberch

It was obvious. You don't play for Ajax as 18 years old or Bayern Munich at 20 years old if you are not talented. Huge coup by LFC.

 

[Chimaera]

I don’t know where he fits, but he’s very talented. He has octopus legs like Matip but carries the ball very well.

 

[Power Man]

Aaaargh unfortunately this goal was waived off

Still, nice touch and peed

Ansu makes it 2 to the good!

I haven't caught Brighton since he joined, how do you guys feel about him so far?

 

[Prntscrn]

Nunez no So good all the way until the finish

Loving him! Gives the attack another creative, speedy winger to join Mitoma. Add Pedro into the mix and we have a dynamic front three that gives even the best defences something to think about.

In the midfield. He fits in the midfield

He’s been much better than I expected. Hasn’t stopped smiling either.

Today has been Endo best game so far too

Strange to see 28 y/o Akpom coming on for Ajax.

 

[Live in the Now]

Lots of reasons to think Klopp got this retool job right.

 

[Evilo]

French teams are all leading their CL/EL/CFL groups except Toulouse and Lens who are either 2nd or tied for 2nd.
Now comes the mental part where they usually suck.

 

[Chimaera]

Still think there’s room for one more. Maybe two if things go a certain way this summer. Andre in the winter would be pretty good.

Defense needs work, but more there than anyone felt.

I don't know why you guys are surprised by Gravenberch. He's still raw, but there's a reason Bayern was ready to sell Goretzka and keep polishing the kid instead, had that ManU bid for LeGo come in.

 

[cgf]

So the BuLi got 6 wins out of 7 European matches on this game day after Freiburg turned their match around to win 3-1 and Leverkusen ran out to a 5-1 win. With 6 of 7 BuLi teams currently in position to qualify from their groups.

...at least it's still possible for us if we can come back from Napoli with a win, and we're just 1 win behind Braga for the EL spot...

I mean maybe? I’m not surprised in that sense. I just thought that even with some up front issues, they wouldn’t basically give away a dude who could be a world beater.

 

[robertmac43]

Brighton get their first ever win in European competition.

Ajax not looking inspiring....

They got stupid chasing Kane when they should've focused on Tchoumeni. Had they done that they'd have been loaded with Tchou, Kimmich, Musiala, Goretzka/Gravenberch, Laimer, and Müller covering the midfield trio.

Leaving Sane / Coman / Gnabry / Tel / ECMC for the front 3, and de Ligt / Upamecano / Kim / Buchmann / Davies / Raphael / Mazraoui for the back 4...and without wasting so much time on Kane they might've got that Pavard-replacement that they couldn't get in before the deadline.

Rumor on the street is that Ajax is looking to hire Albert Stuivenberg as their manager.

 

[bluesfan94]

Lolverpool is back

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Lolverpool is back

Worrying to be fair.

Without Van Dijk and Alisson they look so weak defensively.

 

[luiginb]

Boniface is SO impressive
