Yes Bate are no top side, but they are gonna be playing out of their skins at Emirates and desperate to go through, did you see the way they celebrated at the end?? they ain't gonna go away so easily.. I think you'll be surprised.
The fact we did not get an away goal, makes this all very dangerous. our defence is a disgrace, its horrid, and with Cech in goal it makes it even worse, I am serious when I say I got a bad feeling Bate will score against us at Emirates, and away goals are very dangerous.. 100% serious when I say I think we could concede at home, and we are having problems creating chances as late, it was a bloody slopfest against bottom side Huddersfield and with that score 2-1 we would be out. Don;t be so cocky guys... I'm praying we go through and we have to play very good on the night and hope Auba steps up, without Laca
Whilst a little depressing to lose to BATE, does it really matter? It's the Europa League. We're not good enough to win it and other than the CL for the winners, it's a waste of time and effort. Even if we got into the CL, so what? We are not good enough for that competition anyway.
A waste of time and effort for a football team whose raison d'être is to win football matches
To play football matches? We have beaten favorites Chelsea this season
And have previously secured wins v lazio Valencia inter and Napoli
Of coarse we can win it
Seen us squeak through loads of games in competitions we have gone on to win( Sheffield Wednesday , port vale)
Gets forgotten when you lift the trophy
