Bilbao really should be more clinical. They'll not get this many changes against decent opposition :)

Maybe SAF will finally realise the team needs strengthening with decent players, and not a Â£30m waste-of-space player from Spurs.

Yes l agree but its always going to be reliant on the Glazers loosening the purse strings one suspects.

its going to be an interesting summer for Arsenal and Utd. Arsenal are already making movements. Utd are looking closey making movements.

AVB may be Inters manager next season.

Maybe the Glazers are considering Fergies position as the euro money will dry up ealy this season, plus I don't think the purse strings are very long anyway.
As for Bilbao, they are as good if not better than Barcelona.
Oh and City have just gone 0 - 1 down

l think Mancini's position if he does not deliver a trophy this season is looking increasingly precarious as the pressure mounts on him after some poor results.

I am confused. They were never in the group, they went there by virtue of being 3rd place in their Champions League group. This is the knock out stage.

It just looks strange, as when you expand the match on live scores the Sporting group is next to the City - Sporting game

Poor show by city...they looked slower than Man Utd was against Athletico

Savic still sends a chill down my spine when he gets the ball

Either the two Manchester clubs ain't that good or they do not care two hoots about the Europa League because one of these is true.:(:td:
