ARTICLE: Two part draw for next round of Europa League

[cricketfieldclarets]

Just looked and they are 22nd favourites to win the whole thing (despite being unseeded in the third qualifying round, when there are well over 100 teams left in the competition).

We are 23rd favourites implying nip and tuck (if we get last Aberdeen). Looking at their players though, and being in Europe every year, I see them as being strong favourites to beat us. That Bosnian winger makes Lennon look slow . Turan is one of Barca’s best players, he’s only been shipped out because he is a nutter. Adebayor has been on fire. The keeper is good too.

In fairness though, OK we are unlucky (but lucky to have a cracker of a tie at the Turf before we bow out, which we will at some point). Basaksehir though are more unlucky - they get a seeded side at each stage, and last year in the CL they got Sevilla in the qualifiers and bowed out (despite hitting the post in the last minute that would have seen them through).

Its ok. Turan has nothing like the pedigree westwood and cork do even though he has played for barcelona.

Not even going to try and work out who we could get. Might not even watch the draw. Last one made no sense.

Hopefully someone in russia or kazakhstan

You been previously involved in the Russian Gas industry and now on the run or something?
