UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[terrorJR]

I'm not expecting to see Mourinho parking the bus again as long as Roma aren't the team ahead in the score. But if they score first in regular time or maybe extra time then I would have no doubt that he would do the exact same thing. This is like a lifestyle for him in the end. He did the same thing against Leverkusen and it totally worked out.

But it is a really annoying tactical move by him at the same time. Because when you park the bus you don't play a watchable football. Of course he doesn't have any responsibility to make us enjoy the match. But still I don't see this as real football. Roma have very nice offense players so I wouldn't have fully defended my opponent if I was their manager.

This condition is still possible because regardless of anything they also want good results and they are strong enough with a strategy like this.
Some matches even from the last 16 they tend to play like this and indeed when talking last season also in the Conference League and winning there they did the same thing.
I think as long as they are effective in this way, even though it doesn't seem too elegant, their target is clear, the most important is winning.

but if you look at it only from the overall prediction, it is Seville that can win the European league. indeed Roma will be very strong in the final later but that strength is only due to the pressure from the final round which pressures the Roma players to appear strong in the final match later.
different from Sevilla who have won the European league many times and until now they still have good performance and strategy.
so that many people will bet on choosing and supporting Seville. but if Roma are able to win the champions league title, I think this is a great surprise that deserves to be praised.

Both Roma and Sevilla have reasons from history to believe that they will win the final match. However, no team can win a big title only by relying on history. They must work hard to win a final match and if their players don't have motivation to do that, they will not be winners and champions.

Jose Mourinho so far has 5 final matches in Europe with Porto, Inter Milan, Manchester United and Roma from Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. He has won all of five final matches he joined.

Sevilla, in opposite, have had 6 final matches in Europa League and won them all.
Sevilla holds the record for the most victories, having won the competition six times since its inception.

From those stats, we can see they will start a final match in Budapest with very strong belief that they will be winner after the final whistle. It makes the final will be so interesting between to ambitious teams.

you are right mate. there is no guarantee of victory just because of history but indeed these two teams must rely on strong strategy and performance to win the European league title. Sevilla and Rome have the same opportunity because of course these two teams want to win the title so they will use all their strength to get the European league trophy. I just realized after you reminded me that this is a final that neither Sevilla nor Roma want to waste.
although Sevilla looks guaranteed but I remember that there will always be surprises. and even though Jose Mourinho has brought top teams to win in the big leagues, Jose Luis Mendilibar also doesn't want his players to be defeated in this European league.

Sevilla have been able to perform much better than Roma this season. Sevilla has been able to secure victory in most of the matches. Roma performed exceptionally well at the beginning of the season when they brought in Paulo Dybala, but their performances have not been consistent at the moment.

the final match is difficult to predict even though overall this season AS Roma's performance is not that good but this is not a benchmark for them in the final.
sebenacnya Sevilla is also not so good this season, it can be seen in La Liga this season they are still stuck in the middle of the standings.
I don't favor any one team, but realistically Sevilla will face a very tough opponent, AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho who is very experienced on the European stage should not be underestimated.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

I guess it’s welcome back to Thursday night football for Liverpool next season

I’ve seen all the memes on Twitter laughing at us. The final is in Dublin though, that would be a great party for the fans. Hopefully we will be much better next season, some new players and get back in the top 4. Until then, at least we didn’t end up in the Conference League.

[mamesso]

The bus parking strategy has been Jose Mourinho's mainstay if he sees that the chances they have are small when they play as usual. There is no doubt about Jose Mourinho's ability to formulate a strategy, and this season he has managed to bring AS Roma to the final. It would be amazing if he managed to win the Europa League this season.

there is nothing wrong with the bus parking strategy because after all mourinho's main target is to reach the final.  but keep in mind that sevilla is not an easy team to beat, especially in the european league, see how they beat juventus in the last semifinal, even though the head to head between roma vs juventus was quite interesting, from the last 3 matches they played, sevilla has not been able to win while Rome has won 2 times.  i don't want to speculate further but i think both teams have an equal chance of winning.

The coach is free to use any strategy as long as it does not violate FIFA rules including the bus parking strategy. This time Mourinho strategy will be tested by Sevilla toughness in the Europa League, Sevilla have managed to prove that they are specialists in the Europa League. Sevilla have reached the Europa League final seven times, six of which have achieved success by winning the trophy.
Both teams still have the same chance to win the Europa League trophy. Apart from wanting to prove the best in this competition, Sevilla and Roma are also aiming for tickets to the Champions League at least via the playoffs if they win the Europa League.

Jose Mourinho must have already prepared what he is going to do against a formidable Sevilla side in the Europa League this season. He must have learned a lot about how Sevilla got rid of Manchester United and Juventus. AS Roma and Sevilla can be said to be the ideal final for now. Even though in attack I see Sevilla as superior, AS Roma also has a strong defensive scheme.

The team that won the Europa League title will certainly play in the Champions League next season, and not go through the play-offs. So, if Sevilla or AS Roma manage to get the Europa League title this season, then Sevilla or AS Roma are certain to play in the Champions League next season and don't have to go through the play-offs first. Of course, that is a very good result, considering Sevilla and AS Roma this season have also failed to finish in the top four in their respective standings.

But yes, regarding strategy and which team has a good chance of getting the Europa League title this time, I personally would still choose Sevilla. Because after all, I think at this moment we cannot only consider the big name factor of a coach, because at this moment a team that has struggled a lot this season I think has a better chance, and that is Sevilla.

Keep in your mind that how good the record that has owned by mourinho in all of his european finals. Mourinho has a very good win rate. Parking bus has always become the most important strategy that owned by mourinho. It has proven that so many times if counter attack has become one of most effiecient strategy right now. When the club was always doing defend and its opponent was forget about its weakness and the club can take the advantage from there. Sevilla was a strong team.
My primary concern if this time mourinho is facing sevilla, morinho is also having very good head to head against sevilla.

Jose Mourinho is a shrewd coach, he is good at frustrating his opponents with the strategies he employs, one of which is the bus parking strategy which will surely frustrate their opponents because they have to penetrate the defense which is heavily guarded by almost all the players on the field.
Sevilla is a team that always manages to be in the Europa League and reach the final, and this season they have done it again. AS Roma have also since been handled by Jose Mourinho they have been able to provide tough resistance. It is difficult to determine who will be the champion this season, because Sevilla and AS Roma have the opportunity to do so.

In fact, with the kind of performances Sevilla are performing, they need to reach the Europa League final. The players of Sevilla team are very responsible and they are performing in every match exactly as the team coach has trained them. Due to which they are achieving success.

Sevilla is driven by some kind of magic in the EL, no team has such statistics in this tournament as Sevilla and it seems that this can give them an advantage in the final. I'm not sure how it works for them, but I saw how Sevilla played with Manchester United and Juventus and it seems to me that it will be very difficult for Roma with them.

Mourinho will play this game defensively, if it works then Roma will have a chance, if not then Sevilla will once again lift the EL Cup over their heads.

Even though in attack I see Sevilla as superior, AS Roma also has a strong defensive scheme.

Apart from AS Roma having a very strong way of defending, AS Roma must also have a very good way of attacking when they are in the Europa League final this season. Because it will also be very crucial if AS Roma only rely on their defense in the final match, moreover Sevilla also already know this where AS Roma has a very good way of defending so that Sevilla will also create a way to attack better than before in the final match later. So AS Roma must also have a strategy to attack if they want to win the Europa League final this season.

I think Roma's defense proved itself in the Leverkusen match. They managed to maintain their 1-0 score advantage in the first match. Although they remained as defense throughout the match, they won the match without conceding a goal. Sevilla, on the other hand, had only 1 defeat in the last 6 matches played in UEL, which was a 1-0 score against Fenerbahçe. Manchester United and Juventus failed to beat them. Sevilla are playing very well and if they win the final they will have raised their level even higher.

Even right now when we have Sevilla in the Europa League final match this season, still I think Sevilla didn't have a good performance in the names and they just used the mistakes other teams make in the game and the match against Manchester United was a good example. If Roma makes the same mistakes they will get the same results as Juventus.

I'm not sure how it works for them, but I saw how Sevilla played with Manchester United and Juventus and it seems to me that it will be very difficult for Roma with them.

Sevilla by some unknown power, they managed to go to a final match even they had many months struggling with relegation zone in La Liga. Sevilla always play well in Europa League but this season is very different as in the last ten years, it is a first season Sevilla struggled to stay in La Liga. In many previous seasons, they were very powerful and competitive in top six, top four or even were one of title competitors. This season actually proves that Sevilla have DNA to win Europa League but they still have one last match to be a champion.

Mourinho will play this game defensively, if it works then Roma will have a chance, if not then Sevilla will once again lift the EL Cup over their heads.

Mourinho has his DNA to win final matches in Europe tournaments for European clubs like Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. He has a perfect win rate from 5 final matches he has so far. The next one is his sixth final match and hopefully he will prolong his perfect win rate with Roma.

I think Roma's defense proved itself in the Leverkusen match. They managed to maintain their 1-0 score advantage in the first match. Although they remained as defense throughout the match, they won the match without conceding a goal.

After two seasons with Mourinho, Roma players actually digested the defensive philosophy of Mourinho very well. With good things are going on, with a Conference League title in the last season and a chance to win Europa League in this season, it looks like their players are very united as a team and they really believed in Mourinho and their coach plans.

Leverkusen was a good enough team. Roma still managed to qualify for the final. After winning the first leg, Roma played completely defensively in the second leg. And they managed to draw the match. The Sevilla team is strong but Roma has a chance to win this match. Mourinho is an experienced coach. He is well aware of his squad's capabilities. He will likely play defensively against Sevilla and try to score from counter-attacks. I expect Roma to win this match.

Roma had a few phases this season when I thought that they are playing good soccer, but they are back to their destructive attitude again. Taking time off the watch, discussing with the referee after every single time he blows the whistle, and so on and so forth. There is so much complaining going on and soccer is almost secondary at times. That's what I often hated about Mourinho even though I do like him as a character as he does indeed add something to the soccer world that is unique.

Unfortunately the situation is like that. on the other hand, Rima definitely wants that title, despite the pros and cons both within the team and outside, related to the coach and various other things. but right now they only need to focus on the final match later which of course they have to play optimally and solidly. solid both from the point of view of players with players and also with coach and various suitable strategies. it's complex. on the other hand, Sevilla will not be easily beaten either because they are currently in quite high motivation. it will be interesting.

At least Sevilla doesn't play this destructive kind of soccer like Mourinho and Roma do. You can see that when Mourinho decides to not even let Dybala play a single minute against Bayer Leverkusen that his game plan has never been to score one goal. All he wanted was to destroy Leverkusen's game in whatever way possible. Playing defensively is ok, that is a valid strategy. But destroying a game up to a point that the crowd can't even watch a real soccer game anymore because the whistle is going every 30 seconds and players a lying on the ground every two minutes for two minutes is not fun either. Sevilla had 28 shots against Juventus, Roma had one shot against Leverkusen and not a single one on target. I hope that this is not what we are going to see when both teams face each other in the final.

Undoubtedly, Sevilla is the most successful club in the history of the UEFA Europa League competition which means that they surely know how to get good results in the competition no matter how good of a side their opponents tends to be.
But against Jose Mourinho's Roma, I think it'll be a different  ball game because Mourinho's style of football has worked for him over the years including against teams that are more formidable than Sevilla. It'll be a final of the competition's specialists (Roma) against one of football's finest manager (Jose Mourinho)
