The Europa League Thread 2015-16

Athletic win again. 5-1 against Partizan. Vamos Athletic para La Copa de Europa. Inaki Williams scored again and I said this guy is going to be a huge, huge star. earlier this year. Hope Athletic can keep hold of him but I suspect one of Europe's big fish will get him.

 

Have we made a bid?

 

We should. Then, he and one of our other forwards can swap names; Iñaki Rodriguez and Jay Williams would make so much more sense.

 

Another good win tonight for Athletic Bilbao and now they are safely through the knock out phase. Hope they can go all the way and win it against either Liverpool or Tottenham in the final.

 

'sob'

 

I'm hoping they get to the semis, balls it up and by then have concentrated on that competition and screwed their league form.

 

Haha United have drawn Midtjylland in the EL
