@tony-alvera Inter out is a surprise for you? Well not so much to me, in fact I even bet on Frankfurt going on, especially with the amount of injuries inter had, the football and consistency Eintracht showed this year are simply sublime, and let's not forget the shitshow that has going on lately with Inter, Icardi, Wanda, Perisic & Brozo and Spalleti, what surprised me most was Slavia for sure, I hope they'll put a good performance against Chelsea, but I seriously see Eintracht as a team able to pass Benfica next round and maybe reach the final

@sergiu-il I was expecting a Inter win because of San Siro. I was down there when they played Spurs in the group stages. That crowd can really make the night difficult for any visitors. But yeah, they really need to deal with the issue surrounding Icardi. Its really stinking the whole place up and part responsible for their recent form. He's likely getting sold in the summer.

@tony-alvera I understand your reasoning, but 3000 eintracht ultra normally are enough to out-noise the home team, besides for this game Inter allotted 13,500 seats for eintracht fans, check how many of them were there in Milan yesterday

@sergiu-il Yup, those lot are pretty damn noisy. They tore it up in last year's DFB pokal final. I thought my eardrums would rupture But I had no idea they were allotted 13k, Spurs were given barely half of that.
Btw, I've got a question for you and everyone else here. Who do you expect to make it to the finals?
My prediction would be Chelsea vs Napoli -
@reseat Yeah, a big surprise!
Sevilla is a great team, with amazing individuals such as Banega, Jesus Navas, Sarabia, Andre Silva, El Haddadi etc. , but sometimes individual quality isn't enough!
Hoping that Sevilla will finish in the top4 of the Spanish league because they deserve to play Champions League next year
cheers

@tony-alvera In my opinion, Inter has great individual potential, same as Sevilla, but they didn't create that team spirit and they are not consistent with a good performance this year in the Italian league, as well in the Europa League!
They will probably finish this season in 3rd or 4th position in the Italian league, and maybe next year they will play better in the Champions League.
And who knows how long Spalletti will last as club's manager, maybe Mourinho will replace him at the end of the season!
Cheers

Congrats to benfica for 3-0 win in Lisboa after extra time. But Dinamo Zagreb can be happy, this is still big result for the club, and national league. With this Dinamo bought 2 places in XL qualification for Croatian league first time after 20 years! BRAVO guys!

@raul_alessio said in Europa League 2018/2019:
Napoli, Villarreal, Frankfurt and Chelsea going through Although it would be amazing to see Slavia Prague eliminate Chelsea
-
Arsenal, Valencia, Benfica and Chelsea.
-
@the-beautiful-one that's going to be very complicated, but I hope it happens
-
Yeah, seems only one spain team each in Champions League or Europa League that have chance to qualify to next round..
This is so horrible when duo Madrid lose their chances to play at their home -
@the-beautiful-one said in Europa League 2018/2019:
@pin-kod Would rather see someone like Getafe or Alaves finishing top 4 because it would be nice to see one of them playing in CL for the first time ever
Would be awesome
-
Arsenal and Chelsea play in the Europa League final.
-
1ºs leg!What you think will gonna happen in 2º leg?
-
@the-beautiful-one I agree, although Benfica is still not sure...Frankfurt scored twice in 10 men since the 20th minute, so they could have the force to win 2-0 or 3-1 at home, but anyway Benfica remains favourite and I hope they will qualify.
