2017/18 UEFA Europa League

[Ach]

CSKA 2-1 up

Lead on away goals.

The final is in Lyon so they won't want to be going out

[Zenith]

Dortmund are out.

[DiamondGooner]

Dortmund are out.

Just about to post that.

If not for Atletico, we would actually have a real shot at the trophy this year. I would say that Marseille on current form could also beat us, but I am hoping we manage to avoid Atletico at all costs.

So your hopeful then?

Look apart from Costa and Greizemann we can match them and if Lacazette, Ozil, Mjitarayan and Wils / Ramsey play a blinder we can beat them.

Your making out like we're gonna get smashed, the only way we'd be in serious trouble is if the CB's lose control of Costa but Kos has played against Costa many times and did well against him a few times I'm sure.

He is the one player I'm worried about though.

Yeah no. Saul and Koke are better than Wilshere and Ramsey, Gimenez who is their 3rd CB would start for us. Oblak is at least a top 5 keeper. Only thing they don't have is depth, we could use another poor run from Barcelona.

I am hopeful of getting to at least the final before facing Atletico. Last season we had a great run in the FA Cup against tough oppo but we had Sanchez in WC form. In this tournament we unfortunately don't have PEA, so I don't know where the goals will come from. No way will we keep a clean sheet against Atletico, and their defense is very hard to break down.

This. Atletico will be at their most vulnerable in a final, where anything can happen. They're too strong for the EL over a two-legged tie and are clear favorites right now.

[Losmeister]

knowing nothing of the muscovites... do we envision making it through?

Preston. Southampton and Sutton United are no ac Milan
Sanchez didn't play at Preston where Ramsey scored
He came on at Southampton 25 mins to go with us 3-0( welbeck had scored 2 of them)
He came on at Sutton 16 mins to go with us 2-0 up
We have played Chelsea twice at Stamford bridge this season and kept a clean sheet
Athletico lost 2-1 to them at home and 1-1 at Stamford bridge
