Currently there are almost no Bulgarians in Ludogorets. I think maybe 3 or 4 played yesterday at the game.

Actually this year's Europa League is pretty cool, there are so many interesting teams in it. Normally I am always rooting for Basel, but Salzburg are amazing this year.

I want Benfica and Napoli to go far, and Razgrad is an interesting team from Bulgaria. It's about time that Bulgaria has some success at football again, I still remember the good old times with Stoichkov, Balakov, Kostadinov etc.

Did you collect the Panini stickers in 1994? Bulgaria's team looked very scary.

I did indeed. Too bad I don't have them anymore.
But yeah, a lot of the Bulgarians were a bit scary ^^

I love how lazy we are for the Europa League. No fancy post with flags and crests, just Wikipedia screenshots xD

Nicolas Gaitan free kick goal vs PAOK:

Great article about Jonatan Soriano and Red Bull Salzburg

BTW Pande, next time you want to complain about Chelsea's strikers, just remember that Torres is the only player from a PL club to score in the CL knockout stage so far this season

God damn this is so embarrassing. Guy from Tottenham falls down like he's been shot.

I don't care if you did get headbutt, I just can't have respect for a man that acts so pathetically when he gets tapped. Worst part is that it's been happening in several games today...

It's not even a headbutt. The Tottenham player pushed himself into him, all the guy did was stand his ground and lower his chin. That guy shoved him first from the front of the line back to that position, which was a clear foul, should have probably been a yellow, then he came and shoved and pushed into him again, the Dnipro player just tucked his chin and that's it.

Disgraceful.

It WAS a headbutt. He clearly moves his head forward. Vertonghen's reaction was embarrassing and unnecessary, but Dnipro can't count themselves unlucky for Zozulya being sent off. Their bad luck came when the incompetent referee missed Soldado's blatant elbow in the first half which was a red card without question.

And you obviously didn't watch the game, otherwise you would have seen Matheus dive in the penalty area with Dawson as the last defender. That act was even more shameful than Vertonghen's because it wasn't prompted by an actual foul or offense.

Seeing all the Tottenham fans qualifying this slight movement of the head as a headbutt (it was more like his head was jerked around because of the force of Vertonghen's impact) makes me question the EPL's reputation as a "physical" league lol.

It might be a "headbutt" in this weak sense, but there wasn't enough force in it to hurt anyone. Vertonghen's own momentum was the only reason why there is a small chance that it might have hurt, he was clearly fouling the Dnipro player several times there, and here he was running into him just for the heck of it.

The other excuse is "this is all part of the game", but I think I am not alone in not wanting important games to be decided because of ugly behaviour like Vertonghen's.

I have no idea how the reputation of the Premier League factors into this. What makes a physical league and play acting mutually exclusive?

Also, I hope you didn't think of the Ukrainian league as being physical:

Indeed. Never touch a player who makes a run on goal like that lol.

edit: whatever, no need to continue this argument

let's just hope Benfica beats Tottenham in the next round and I'll be satisfied

I don't know if you know it, but there's a Serie A match between Juventus and Fiorentina on the next week... and then there's the EL match XD

Shame on Lazio for losing vs Ludogorec, but they're not in a very good shape this season. Napoli vs Porto will be fun.

Salzburg looking stronk, rooting for them! :D

Don't think seedorf's fate relies on this game.
They brought him along 3 months ago and they will let him do his job until next season before judging I believe.
Also milan actually played better than atletico, if they play their A game again they may win, who knows.
My dick has shrunk to the point where it looks like I have 3 balls.

Arsenal wins 0-2, goes to penalty kicks, Ozil is last kicker. Now that would be interesting.

Rosicky and Flamini on the bench for Arsenal + Vermaelen starting at leftback. This is not going to end well I'm afraid

Wenger going allin with a offensive lineup.
Guardiola in his "i dont give a fuck" mode with a midfield of Schweinsteiger, Götze and Tiago. Lahm + Martinezz in the back.

Arsenals chances aren't that bad.

Bayern always needs like 15-20 minutes to actually start playing, if Arsenal scores in that timeframe the game is completely open.

Just saw the starting lineup, no Kroos, Boateng and Müller....

Those Arsenal injuries... They could field entirely different team if not for bad luck.

But I think the fact that they won in Munchen 2-0 last year only works against them; knowing that, Bayern won't allow themselves any complacency. I'm expecting clean 2-0 for Guardiola's side. Maybe 2-1 at best, if Mesut gives his best.
