Europa League 2025-26

Plenty of teams to take our place if we slip up. Having said which, based on last season, one more win would be enough.

Yeah, I'd be rotating heavily in the remaining away games. Don't want to be sending a full strength side to Istanbul the midweek before Newcastle away. Worst case scenario we can always go strong at home to Sturm Graz if we still need points.

I hope Unai's research regarding our opponents is more diligent than yours!

You of course mean RB Salzburg<winky thing>

I'm hoping top 8 is secured by the time of the Fenerbache game

[Meanwood Villa]

Although I've just realised that's not the last match

[AV82EC]

A positive result at Fenerbache and we’ll deffo be top 8 imv. A good win at home to Salzburg (who are unbelievably a Pot 1 seed) would see us if not in the top 2 then at least top 4.

John Percy on X saying Duran has a two game ban for his head but so won’t be playing against us in January for Fenerbahce

[eamonn]

Phew! He was on course to score a 98th minute winner against us.

So I do. I could have sworn we were playing Sturm Graz. Maybe it was a really dull dream.

John Percy on X.


No Jhon Duran reunion with #avfc next month - UEFA has confirmed that Duran, on loan at Fenerbahce, will be banned for 2 European games for headbutting Ferencvaros defender Toon Raemaekers. Suspended for home match v Villa on Jan 22nd.
