UEFA Europa Conference League - Alkmaar, Legia and Zrinjski

That's the Europa League, the Conference Final is in Athens.

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

The final is in Dublin. Imagine it?

Of the Europa League.

[PaulTheVillan]

Balls

Athens is nice though

[PaulTheVillan]

Wonder if we’ll get a trip to Russia?

[London Villan]

When do we play our first game?

I'd have liked Europa, but perhaps this is a perfect reintroduction for us into Europe. A slightly kinder level of competition (though we must take it 100% seriously of course - I too remember St*v*n*g*) as we get a bit of a groove back for the whole Sunday-Thursday routine.

I guess it depends how far we get, but assuming a decent way how many games are likely to be on Sunday's rather than Saturday's?

If we get to the group stage it will be 8 before Xmas

We should take the competition very seriously , I'd say it's our best chance of getting Europa if the likes of Chelsea and Spurs pick up.

We will need a '2nd team' almost to compete on all fronts. I think Coutinho will be very useful in the competition, if we can get him fit. Ashley Young should also be given a two year contract

I wouldn't say it's our 'best chance' as the vagaries of knockout tournaments always introduce unfavourable probabilities. I get what you mean though - the English representative in the Conference League will always be among the favourites.

As for a '2nd team', again, I see what you mean, but I'd rather put it as 'competition in every position', rather than a first eleven with understudies.

Cheers B.E.

The final is in Dublin. Imagine it?

Liverpool in a European final in Dublin, I'd rather not.

Oh, they'll be there, mate.

You just know it.

If it was a choice between this and the old UEFA Cup I'd take the UEFA Cup all day long.

But the Europa League is mental. You'd need to play the same amount of games as half a league campaign to win it. Whereas with the Conference League there's six ties and then the final. Until they change the format in 24/25 and about five million teams enter.

The Conference final will be West Ham's 15th game in the competition, exactly the same as Roma in the Europa League final.
