We should be beating them handily. They are strugging in the worst version of La Liga in decades.
Europa League 22/23 | Final: Sevilla vs Roma (May 31)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
So much to panic about this campaign.
First it's "we're shit against Spanish sides!" times four.
Then possibly "Pogba to have a worldie against us!".
Then "Jose shithouse masterclass incoming!".

On paper Roma is doable. We beat Lazio too and they're better than them this year, but Mourinho-ball doesn't suit Dutch teams. Knocking the cnut out would be fecking glorious though, maybe Karsdorp can make a few own goals and flip Mou off.
I got exhausted just reading that, wow.
We’ve been knocked out of Europe by Spanish opposition every year for 5 years now. At least under Ten Hag we seem to have cracked that particular mental block by knocking out two already.Sevilla4 ties v Spanish opposition this season. Plus Juve or Sporting in the semis if we go through. Unbelievable.
Love it.. exciting games ahead..
Holy shit, we’re in the middle of March with two weeks international break, and still have all those fixtures to go. That’s insane.
Great chance of top 4 and two further trophies.
This is absolute madness
good thing we're getting Eriksen back and Casemiro has time to rest 
At least we can't get shithoused by a Spanish team in the semis or final if we get there...
If we go through and play juventus our Europa run would not look out of place in the ucl. Barcelona, Sevilla, JuventusSevilla
Tough draw route to tbe final for us but Sevilla have been poor this season so with the first leg at home I think its possible for us to get a big win and have the tie sown up before we go to Seville.
Juventus will be difficult to play in Turin but with the 2nd leg being at home I think we should be favorites.

Why are we playing on the 20th then 22nd April?
Surely that will be moved to the 23rd Sunday
Exactly. Football feast is coming!
Uh. Madrid 00, Bayern 01, Leverkusen 02, Madrid 03, Porto 04, Milan 05, group(villarreal) 06, milan 07, barcelona 09, bayern 10, barcelona 11, athletic 12, madrid 13, bayern 14, liverpool 16, sevilla 18, barcelona 19, sevilla 20, villarreal 21, atletico 22
More than 50% of your european eliminations this millennium at the hands of spanish sides.
El Manchester!
Being realistic (should we face the teams you are all worried about) I see it like this...
Sevilla - crap this season, and easily beatable over two legs.
Juventus - good team but not as good as Barcelona, Old Trafford would be rocking in the second leg and we will likely just have too much for them.
Roma - decent but really and truly, even though they got an easier route, I can seem them struggling to make it through. Not a team to be feared
Overall, anything can happen in cup competitions. But we are strong favourites and it should be other teams worrying about us.

We knocked out two of those 2 years ago plus we beat them regularly in the groups. Problem hasn't been beating them but that we keep facing them until one of them knocks us out.
Had a feeling we were gonna get Sevilla since they were the last remaining La Liga team left in the competition. They’ve had our number in the past so it’s about time we walloped these cnuts.
The potential semi-final tie is intriguing. Would love it to be Juventus and for Pogba to make a one-off miraculous recovery so he can play and we knock them out with him thinking feck I wish I never left. Talking about the potential final opponent, it will be amazing if it’s Mourinho’s Roma. The prospect of beating him in a final will be so sweet!
Anyways, I think I'm getting a little too far ahead of myself and should just focus on knocking Sevilla out first!

Roma are much better than Lazio and the last time you played in Rome they made you look like an amateur side...just saying
Absolutely, and we beat Sociedad away too in the groups I think? So doing well but just incredible to play that many in one run of a tournament. Plus a difficult semi-final too.
Totally agree and said as much on the pod last night. The talent in the EL this year is very high and if we make the final it would be a very worth run considering the opposition.
Crap I am going to Chelsea, any idea when it might get moved to?
Depends purely on FA Cup or Europa League, if we go until final in both, absolute no idea - having a Sunday - Tuesday - Friday - Sunday Gameweek
Are we in the Europa competition or have we been put in the Spanish FA cup competition?
Yeah will be moved to the 23rd
Final against Jose will be frustrating watch I imagine
Sporting will knock out Juve.
It's gonna be difficult playing La Liga on Thursdays and Premier League on Sunday.
No one is talking about Martial's redemption arc. Return to Seville .
.Repeat of the conference league final, or are you guys going to do it?
More like Sevilla -> Juve -> Roma in that order ;-)
Sevilla can’t score and can’t defend. They’re awful this season and are a club in crisis tbh.
Predictions in... So would put us on 74-78 points in the league, think we'll win Europa League, honest prediction is we lose to City in semis or final of the fa cup.
Sevilla fans after us beating Betis with 41 year old Joaquin featuring.
"That's right; they did whoop Real Betis' ass!"
"......Joaquin was 137 years old when he played!!!"

At full strength, without legal distractions we are still more than decent and Allegri keeps it tight, so we will see.

It would be foolish to underestimate Juventus. Not sure what is going on there but that's a more than competent side to face in a knock out game. I don't think anyone should be looking at that as big favourites being involved. Anything can happen.
True. That said, I don’t think ETH will underestimate them.
