UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[TelolettOm]

It is true that Salah has a huge role in Liverpool; yet Salah is an old winger and would be replaced soon by Liverpool anyways
The best opportunity would be to let go while making good amounts of money fit to get a quality replacement in the mold of Mohammed Salah.

No one in Liverpool squad can replace the role of Salah. Although he is an old player, his role is very crucial. It can be seen clearly in many matches, Salah contributed in most the goals of Liverpool.
It s not easy to get the replacement of Salah. Although Liverpool buys a new winger, the new winger may be difficult to adapt with Liverpool game. Darwin Núñez is the example of the new player in Liverpool who can't adapt well with Liverpool game although he is already few years in Liverpool.

Moh Salah has become a goal scoring machine for Liverpool and the passes he provides also really help other players in creating opportunities so as long as Salah is not in the starting Xl I am not sure Liverpool can maintain their winning record and stay in first place because Manchester City will definitely take advantage Liverpool's current situation is to continue to win and wait for Liverpool to slip from the top of the standings.

Yes, he is the machine goal of Liverpool. If he isn't in the lineup, Liverpool often gets difficulty to score goals. Sure, Salah is the mainstay player for making goals. He also often contributed by delivering assists. He makes other players to score goals. He is also to attract the defenders of the opponents, so other Liverpool players can get the chance to scores.

I don't think the injury Salah is suffering right now is a serious one. I hope to see him recovering in a short time however I assume he wouldn't return from AFCON early as long as Egypt aren't eliminated. No matter what he can still be back until their Europa League matchup is decided. In the end Liverpool finished their group as the leader so they won't play in the current round.

But if Salah's injury is a really serious one unlike my expectation then a really tough time period is waiting for Liverpool in every tournament they are playing in. Because Salah is really the most important player in the attacking line at the moment. 

This is what club are always afraid of, the FIFA virus can bring disaster to the club if their players are injured while defending their country in certain competitions. Liverpool is at the peak of its performance this season, Liverpool success in maintaining the stability of its performance cannot be separated from Salah role in helping create goals for his team. Losing Salah is a big loss for Liverpool because they are struggling in the Europa League and are under heavy pressure from Manchester City and Arsenal in the EPL. Yes, hopefully Salah injury is not too serious, Liverpool still really needs his strength for the remainder of this season.

We have too much talk about Salah injury with most chances he will be able to play again after few weeks with most chances he will be available for the UEFA Europa League game for the Liverpool but still performance in last game against Bournemouth give all how things are computable for them their all players are capable of giving their best and having impressive win which is good sign for them and if they are going to perform like this surely they will be still had good chance for the best end of this season with currently they are in four titles race, and they are capable of winning as they are expecting before this Salah injury.

But, Salah could be most important for them with his all performance and quality because he has done more than expectations and still his presence is moral booster for the squad which is having few youngsters which are going to have bright future in coming years.

Mate, Liverpool are better than nearly all of the teams in the competition. I mean that even without Salah they can still eliminate the majority of the teams left here. The biggest challenges would be Leverkusen and Roma I think. Especially Leverkusen because they are having a fantastic season with Xabi Alonso.

There is Milan too though. You must know about the epic Champions League finale played between Liverpool and Milan in the 2004/05 season.  Seeing these two facing each other again would really be meaningful.

Rome may no longer exist.lol
Liverpool does have better team strength compared to other teams, but I remind you that this is the Europa League where big surprises often occur, so Liverpool should not be too favored and their percentage of winning the Europa League is not that big.
Leverkusen this season is quite surprising, and they also have the same potential as Liverpool.

What is certain is that the teams currently in the Europa League are the best teams in Europe whose quality of play is not much different, so there is nothing particularly favored here.

Europa league is indeed quite different where we rarely see traditional big clubs, Madrid and Liverpool, won this competition. The Europa League has a history of delivering unexpected outcomes, and underestimating any opponent can lead to surprising results. Big clubs rarely put UEL as their priority that makes it signifant for the element of surprise. Teams like Bayer Leverkusen, which have been performing impressively, pose a legitimate challenge.

The parity among the teams in the Europa League is an essential point to consider. This underscores the competitive nature of the Europa League, with teams of similar quality vying for success. This tournament also requires consistent performance, adaptability, and resilience, regardless of a team's perceived strength. It's a fine cautious approach to acknowledge Liverpool's strength but wisely caution against underestimating the competition and highlight the potential for surprises in the Europa League.

Lens had a good first time In the Champions League but didn't get so far, the journey they've come so far now makes alot of sense. I'm rooting for em against the German side Freiburg.

Shakhtar Donetsk against Marseille is a great match, it'll have to do with lots of attacking football, I love Shakhtar Donetsk but I want to see Gennaro Gattuso successfull same way he was in his playing days. Galatasaray messed up in the Champions League this is a chance for redemption in the Europa League Competition they have to do better coz they're so experienced.

Milan flopped also, but they're big European giants and I expect them to win again against Rennes. Roma won them in the Conference Cup Finals and I expect them to go win this round for the next.

Lens did appear impressive at first when they just started competing in the Champions League but in the end Lens gave up and failed to qualify for the next round and ended up in 3rd place where Lens had to take part in the European League play off round, to be honest I doubt whether Lens can qualify for this round because Personally, in my opinion, both of their performance are not very good in the domestic league. Lens is ranked 8th in League 1 and Freiburg is ranked 6th in the Bundesliga. I thinks in term of opportunitie both of them still have a big chances of progressing and I can't choose between these two clubs yet.

The second doubt is Roma vs Feyenoord because Roma have just changed coaches. Of course the strategy used by the current coach is different from Jose Mourinho, but I hoped that Roma can still qualify for the round of 16, although at the moments it is still a little doubtful. But I think De Rossi will do the same the best and can impress Roma fans with him.

Feyenoord was playing really good but in the last time they droped a b it their level, so i dont know who is the favorite in that key, when i see Feyenoord agains Atletico Madrid for Champions League phase group they played quite well, but the thing is against Atletico is difficult to measure because Atleticos ways to play is strange in some games.

[wmaurik]

Feyenoord was playing really good but in the last time they droped a b it their level, so i dont know who is the favorite in that key, when i see Feyenoord agains Atletico Madrid for Champions League phase group they played quite well, but the thing is against Atletico is difficult to measure because Atleticos ways to play is strange in some games.

Next month, Feyenoord will face AS Roma, which will also be an important match for both teams because Roma itself is not a bad team when playing in the Europa League. So Feyenoord must be able to show the abilities they have against Roma in the Europa League this season even though Roma's abilities may not be the same as other teams in the Europa League, but the Knockout round is an important round for every team to win and continue to progress to the next round after this

Yes, hopefully Salah injury is not too serious, Liverpool still really needs his strength for the remainder of this season.

Salah's role in Liverpool is such that everyone knows is very vital and advantageous to Liverpool at every point where he's present and playing for the team. Salah's absence initial got an effect on the performance of Liverpool but they were quick enough to get their form back in place and made up for the space his absence would have created.

Apart from Salah, there are other players who constitutes the front line for Liverpool from which klop can still maintain the solidness of his front line, and still get some good results out of their performance . All Liverpool needs now is the ability to maintain stability with their form and consistently making good efforts to getting to  maintaining their position on the table in their domestic league and aswell making sure to get pass the round of sixteen in the Europa this season.

I think, one thing we have to realize about AS Roma having good results in Europe is also that it happened in the Mourinho era but yes, at this moment AS Roma is no longer with Mourinho. Therefore, I think we don't fully expect AS Roma to get good results in Europe this time with De Rossi. Because after all, it is clear that De Rossi also has no experience in becoming a head coach on a team that plays in Europe. So yes, I personally might doubt the quality of AS Roma at this moment because yes, basically De Rossi also still needs time to be able to make the right rotation to keep the team's performance good at this moment and of course it will never be easy at all.

There is nothing difficult in assuming that the favorites will win  But I expect that in at least 2-3 pairs a surprise awaits us, after all, this is the Europa League and the playoff round where the underdogs are more motivated than the favorites.
Therefore, I will not bet money here (especially in the first games) and I do not advise anyone to add the outcomes of these games to multi-bets.

I believe that in the Europa League many surprises occurred and it is possible that this will happen again in the Europa League this season.
For betting, I think don't be too afraid of the surprises that will happen, if our prediction is towards the favorite team then I think it's worth betting on, losing or winning is normal.

It’s enough to look at last season not to believe but to know for sure, here’s who could have been in the final of last season: Arsenal, Barcelona, United, Juventus, Bayer, and in the end Roma played there (ok, although they obviously weren’t the favorites) and Sevilla ( LOL). So those who think that the favorites will win all the time (especially in minor tournaments) are of course mistaken. If you place bets in such tournaments, then live and probably against the favorites in order to catch a big odds.

The Europa League which doesn’t feature much big clubs has it’s own surprises and that’s one big deal that makes the competition have surprises. We don’t have much big clubs competing there so we probably have some smaller teams showing up to a team you thought will go through which is what makes the tournament more interesting.

 The competition needs utmost concentration amd consistency to be able to succed and we see big teams being a bit relaxed in this competition because they see their opposition as less. Then the result then send a shocker to them and that what makes this competition crazy. Liverpool and Leverkusen are the only teams I know to be consistent and could probably be the finalists but they’ll have to be very cautious of small clubs or opponents.

Agree. We don't need to expect too much for the good result of AS Roma. When AS Roma could be the finalist last season, it was under Mourinho management and AS Roma was in a good condition. It is very different with the current condition, AS Roma is no longer under Mourinho management and AS Roma squad looks not convincing to go far in Europa League. I am even not sure really sure that AS Roma can qualify for the next round. In this play-offs round, AS Roma will play against Feyenoord, it is not a weak team. Feyenoord is a strong team, they are in the second place of Eredivisie standings. Meanwhile AS Roma is in 8th place of Serie A table, AS Roma is experiencing a bad season. Moreover, AS Roma is managed by a new coach with no experience in international competitions like Europa League. Considering this matter, not only you, I also doubt that AS Roma will perform well in this Europa League competition.

I don't think the injury Salah is suffering right now is a serious one. I hope to see him recovering in a short time however I assume he wouldn't return from AFCON early as long as Egypt aren't eliminated. No matter what he can still be back until their Europa League matchup is decided. In the end Liverpool finished their group as the leader so they won't play in the current round.

Egypt qualified to the knockout stage of the AFCON Competition, they played their last match without Mohammad Sallah and they did not lose the match which means they can cope without him even though we know that the team will not be as strong as it used to be because they have no hope on his return before the end of the tournament.

But if Salah's injury is a really serious one unlike my expectation then a really tough time period is waiting for Liverpool in every tournament they are playing in. Because Salah is really the most important player in the attacking line at the moment. 

His absence will affect Liverpool in different ways which include their Europ League title hope and the Premier League because he is one of the key players in the team they all relied on.

If I refer to Fabrizio Romano's report which stated that Moh Salah's agent, Ramy Abbas, stated that Salah's injury was more serious than previously thought. he will be out for 21-28 days. His best chance of participating in AFCON at this time is to undergo incentive rehabilitation in England and join the team as soon as he is fit, this news was reported by Romano on January 23 yesterday. To be honest, I don't follow developments regarding the AFCON competition. but apparently, considering the long absence of Moh Salah. It is very likely that he will not return to AFCON, either because the national team is eliminated or the competition has ended.

Once again I will say, I really don't follow the development of the Africa Cup of Nations at all. So, I don't know all the related information. What is certain is that Moh Salah must focus on recovering from his injury and returning to the team fit again. the problem is, the Premier League competition will be waiting for him and Liverpool will have quite tough matches. With Moh Salah's absence, it could have an impact on Liverpool in a crucial match. automatically, he had to focus on recovering from his injury. As for the Europa League, Liverpool doesn't need to worry. because after all, the round of 16 of this competition has not yet been scheduled. that's natural, because the playoffs haven't been held yet. So, Liverpool can focus on other competitions, especially the Premier League and Jurgen Klopp really needs Salah's presence as one of the core players in his squad.

I will not side with anyone here because the opinions of @KTChampions and @Republikcoin.com are both reasonable.
Indeed, surprises like last season could happen again this season considering that this is a football bet with millions of surprises in several matches considering that surprisingly Sevilla became the UEL title holders last season and no one would have thought that Sevilla could become the title holders because everyone would be more choose to bet all in for Barcelona or Arsenal.
There's nothing wrong if we try to bet on this match but keep it with a small amount to prove whether last season's surprise can be repeated this season because Sevilla couldn't qualify for the playoffs and currently the favorites are Leverkusen and Liverpool and maybe this candidate that won't change, but it could be Milan who will provide the next surprise.

[Hirose UK]

Good prediction and indeed Galatasaray, Roma, Milan, Benfica, Marseille, Sporting, Braga, Lens are team that are strong enough to win this play-off round so they can have big chance of advancing to the round of 16.

I agree with you and it seems that surprises will definitely arise in this play-off match, just like Sevilla where no one can think that Sevilla will be the most successful tick while they in La Liga have never played very well.
Even this season, Sevilla is in the danger zone of being relegated from La Liga and of course every title they win like last season is quite big surprise.
In this play-off match, it is quite interesting to be able to bet because there is favorite team that is truly the favorite, but I also have the same assumption as you not to bet money.
It much more interesting and more fun when you are actually in the last 16 match are going to bet on the European League, but for those who are going to bet, I think the main choice is the team that is the favorite as the main betting option.

There are two team that I really like in this play-off match, namely Galatasaray and Milan, they might be able to win more easily.

If the injury is not a serious one then there is every possibility of him recovering and still participating in the AFCON if they are not yet eliminated but i have come to understand that no matter how little the injury, the player must be out for a week or two and if Salah should be out for up-to two weeks then there would be no AFCON to participate in anymore as he would have missed out.

If the injury is not a serious one it will be a good news for Liverpool and the fans because Salah would have.m almost recovered and would be available for selection. Salah is an important player for Liverpool but despite his absence they are still scoring goals and winning matches but his presence would be crucial in the Europa League.

Well Mo’s injury which we thought was just minor and would keep him out for probably 2 weeks or less has now been reported to be serious. He’ll be out for about 4-5 weeks and this means a whole lot maybe not for his country side because they’ll probably be eliminated, it means a whole lot for Liverpool cause they are competing very well for the EPL against City and would all their star players to help them with the challenge ahead.

 Yes, Liverpool because now the EPL title race is about to get so fierce with top teams back on track amd Liverpool having some crucial matches. I think Jurgen kloop,  in as much as he’ll want to try to build a team not dependent on Mo, he must admit the team will miss him on some occasion. I think Mo will be try to get fit on time so as to help the team in their title challenge, because it obviously might be his last for he club if he’s to depart Anfield by summer.

Feyenoord was playing really good but in the last time they droped a b it their level, so i dont know who is the favorite in that key, when i see Feyenoord agains Atletico Madrid for Champions League phase group they played quite well, but the thing is against Atletico is difficult to measure because Atleticos ways to play is strange in some games.

I would rather than pick feyenoord instead of as roma. It's caused by asroma has not managed by the special one who knew how to beat feyenoord. Feyenoord never had a good head to head against the club being managed by him. This can be also the best answer to say that if feyenoord probably becomes a toughest competitor for as roma there will be a tough match to happen between roma and feyenoord. Roma will be putting in immense effort to beat their opponent, and it is important not to underestimate Feyenoord, especially considering that they have just dropped from the UEFA Champions League.

Rossi has become a new appointment for as roma and this makes me don't trust roma. Rossi lack of experience in the european competition and this is probably his first time to manage a club that played in europa league.
The pressure is not comparable to the when he was still managing the mediocre club. Im only wondering what strategy has already prepared by him.

It's caused by that can be good or bad for the club. Let's see how he tries to manage the performance from the club.

[Velvet78]

One of the most exciting matchups in this round seems to be Feyenoord - Roma. The first game is in Netherlands on February 15th. As Roma have changed their manager and brought Daniele De Rossi I really am curious about their journey from now on. Actually Mourinho didn't have any problem in such competitions. He just couldn't meet the expectations in the Serie A.

But still it is important for De Rossi to be competitive in the Europa League now. Because joining the Champions League must be Roma's main target to achieve. They should be aiming the title here and finishing the Serie A in top four area both.
