somersetspur Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 My three to watch.Sevilla.A.C.Milan.Hamburg. But then you got 8 of the champions league dropouts,to come into the knock-out stages. What a farce that is. Talk about looking after the Champions League teams. Poor Rangers lost one qualifier,and was out of europe before it really started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A One And A Six Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 What is the point in the UEFA cup group stage? I think it has made a mockery of the competetion. I dont see the point in having groups of 5,playing each team once, with two games both home and away. It should be like the champions league (play every team home and away) or like the world cup (play each team once at a nuetral venue) or even better, ditch the group stage and go back to the original knock-out format throughout the comp! Also at the end of the group stage theyre are still 32 teams left in!!! The UEFA cup has always been second to the European Cup but it was always a great competition to win. It just isnt the same anymore. Thats what i think anyway! :c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peck1961 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Who cares. It's a comp for losers anyway. What, like the European 'Champions' League, where you don't have be a Champion of anything to win it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Darren Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 The Uefa Cup has gone crap, since they introduced the group stage, the excitement of potentially being knocked out on a night gave it excitement. European football now looks after those in the Champs League. Liverpool have come up against the same opposition quite a few times now!! so its getting a bit repetitive to be honest with you. Still, I got my ticket for the Athletico Madrid game this morning!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
