      it is - we just don't look either confident enough or strong enough to fight for 4th and go for the europa - there are other teams there that will be going all out to win it.

      It just shows how **** football is nowadays - finishing 4th in the league is more important than winning what is the UEFA cup.

        I think UEFA cup is derided too much though, UEAF needs to promote it further and even out the prize money if possible in order to make more lucrative and entertaining, there are decent teams in it but the financial gap between them is out of proportion - it would also help the smaller teams to improve.

          The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

            How would it be a conflict of interests? He's our player now, it's not like he's on loan to us from them

              aye - UEFA just saw the money - they went all out with the champions league, made a **** load of money and ruined the UEFA cup.

                Since you can qualify for the Europa League via the Champions League but not other way round then the Europa League is obviously the more important and prestigious competition.

                .
                Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



                May the Lord bless this post.

                      The way we have been playing and due to the fact we HAVE to get fourth I think the following teams, at least, will pose a threat.

                      Everton - Sporting Clube de Portugal
                      Hertha BSC Berlin - SL Benfica
                      Villarreal CF - VfL Wolfsburg
                      R. Standard de Liège - FC Salzburg
                      FC Twente - Werder Bremen
                      LOSC Lille Métropole - Fenerbahçe SK
                      FC Rubin Kazan - Hapoel Tel-Aviv FC
                      AFC Ajax - Juventus
                      Club Brugge KV - Valencia CF
                      Fulham FC - FC Shakhtar Donetsk
                      Liverpool FC - FC Unirea Urziceni
                      Hamburger SV - PSV Eindhoven
                      Athletic Club - RSC Anderlecht
                      FC København - Olympique de Marseille
                      Panathinaikos FC - AS Roma
                      Club Atlético de Madrid - Galatasaray AŞ
                      One step at a time. We should worry about FC Unirea Urziceni first.

                          Would everyone agree that anything less than winning it would be disappointing?
                          no.

                          seriously couldnt give a toss about the europa league. be nice to win something this year but i have no respect for this trophy so if we dont win it then no big deal.
                          People who think there's no good way to die have obviously never heard the phrase 'Drug-fuelled-sex-heart-attack'.

                            Totally agree, I'm just saying that we shouldn't expect to win it, we are not a stand out team IMO.

                              Why would there be a conflict of interest? We own his registration now, we didn't loan him. That's like saying Benni McCarthy shouldn't play against Blackburn in any competition because it's a conflict of interest.

                                I have to say I never really understood the whole 'cup tied' thing anyway, I can see the case for players on loan, but other than that what's the point?
