UEFA Europa League 2015/16

Oooh yeah! FC Midtjylland secured group play by knocking out Southampton. Excellent stuff!
FCM were more solid than spectacular, but I had expected way more from a sub top PL side like Southampton.

Molde in Europa League. Rosenborg too, congrats to both.

I'm just happy that 2 Estonians are going to play in this season's Europa League.

Going to be an awesome year, I think Dortmund will take this this year.

Quite the boring match, but we are through to europa league Hoping for big teams that draw attention and big crowds, dont really fancy meeting unknown east-european teams, which might beat us and would draw much less people. Potential lose/lose, at least with teams like Liverpool/Dortmund etc the matches would draw alot of interest/people etc, even if we lose.

Don't you guys gather good attendance usually anyway?

Gotta give you guys credit there, where most teams struggle to even half fill up their stadium, RBK seem to do pretty well in comparison.

Yes, we fill up the stadium pretty well. But still, i had enough of east-european teams few have heard of for a while. Its much more glamorous meeting teams from the big leagues. Going to Anfield, London etc is more interesting than a less well known team from a smaller league. Also, facing the best teams has its own advantages, the team could test themselves against the best the europa league has to offer, valuable experience.

Groups:

 

[Morten]

Dnipro, Lazio, Etienne, not the best group we could have got. Nontheless, we would be outsiders anyway.

 

[Morten]

St Etienne away for RBK, difficult, dont expect much. Hoping for a suprise though.

Fenerbache - Molde 1-1 at half time, impressive. But i guess Fenerbache will take it in the end.

Edit: 1-2

 

[Morten]

The turks are giving Molde aplause on their own stadium, didnt expect that....

 

[Yannik]

Dortmund 2-1

Park with 1 goal and 1 assist, one of the most awful players all evening but will still get MOTM for that.

Rapid defeated Villarreal 2-1 at home. Though with quite some luck.

I noticed Denis Suarez started the game. How did he do?
