Europa’s a quality competition man, never really gotten the respect it deserves. Obviously it’s funny to banter clubs if you’re in CL and they’re in EL but most would love to win EL if they’re in the competition, those that don’t, don’t appreciate football enough in my opinion. I’d kill for us to win it this coming season. 6 times in 14 years for Sevilla, unreal. Their fans must be buzzing.
I was there for it mate. Had just enough loyalty points on my membership at the time to qualify for a ticket. Was the first final I’d attended live too - and the only one I’ve seen us win so far . Best experience I’ve had at football bar none. I’ve seen Spurs win some great games against elite sides over the years but nothing compares to seeing your team lift a trophy.
Yeah defo...a Euro trophy is special Cant stand Feyenoord since they knocked us out of the Cup winners cup back in 92
I am in total agreement with everyone here about taking Europa seriously and being jealous of Sevilla's success. But I would also like for us to enjoy their remarkable good fortune, because looking at their last 3 matches they have had some luck! Qtr final v Wolves saved penalty should have been retaken for encroachment how VAR missed it no one knows. Semi Final lets be honest United battered them and should have won the game Final - should have been reduced to 10 men after 5 minutes, and the same player creates the winner which was going miles wide before Lukaku helped them out further. I don't think anyone can deny that they know how to win in Europe, but sometimes you need the gods to smile on you and they were definitely looking down with a massive grin on Sevilla in Germany.
The weird thing about Sevilla is they have managers who achieve while there, but as soon as they leave they don't do particularly well Juande Ramos won back-to-back UEFA Cups (with a European Super Cup thrown in), joins us and is found out horrifically Unai Emery wins three Europa Leagues in a row, managed to not win Ligue 1 with PSG and never appeared to figure out how Arsenal should line up at kickoff
Wonder when the realisation that he is partly responsible for us (and now Inter) losing various finals and semis will drop.
Well if Barren Dent is still having trouble realising he was a major part of a whole lot of coming up short and/or ending up relegated...
What is it with Man Utd fans and belief that even the players in their own team they think are **** are still better than ones at other clubs? ...and don't get me started on the entitled bellends spending the past few days whining that David Brooks isn't good enough ...or some boring Not606 ****poster thinking that I believe the Season Killer Cup and Europa League are the same thing
"If Chilwell is worth 50 million imagine how much Luke Shaw is worth. Easy 100 million." He just accidentally added an extra 0 on Shaw's valuation. Didn't he? Surely?
I've always had a soft spot for Feyenoord ever since that magical May night in 1963 when we won the European Cup Winners Cup in their ground and I was there! The local fans all seemed to support us too. Loved Holland, loved Rotterdam, loved the stadium, loved that fantastic night. Even the world class ref said we were the best British team he had ever seen! Those were the days..........
Come on Maggie, more info about how you travelled there , how many spurs fans made the journey, can you remember how much it cost , love these memories from the 60s
"Come on Maggie.......!" ) I was always missing tickets to big games. I'm surprised I got a free ticket to my wedding!!!
To be fair,she has just come home after spending nearly 3 months if various hospitals with breathing and heart problems. She's got running up and down stairs like a 21 year old...and you know I am not!!!!!! Unbelievable that she was a very fit sailor with the American Navy. Time can be cruel!
