Fiorentina through, AZ v Anderlecht going to extra time.

I hope we don't make hard work of this. It really shouldn't be.

steve

Lets put this to bed early ,

PrestonHammer

Looks like a full house tonight.

steve

Again 2 keepers on the bench ,why does moyes keep doing that

OldCastleSwift

Fast start, but another pernickety ref looks like he wants to slow it down.

We certainly look up for it tonight.

OldCastleSwift

Yikes. Great chance for Gent. Two players actually missed it.

Sevilla ahead. Maguire makes a gaffe.

We got away with one there, great chance for Gent.

At least it's not the same ref as last week, surely he can't end up being as bad 🤞🤞🤞

buffybegood

Very open game, surely there's goals in it. Let's just hope we get plenty.

OldCastleSwift

A familiar pattern to this. A high intensity start that yielded nothing, and it's all gone a little bit flat. We're struggling to get the front three involved now and Gent are seeing a lot of the ball.

Coufal and one of theirs down following a clash of heads.

AZ v Anderlecht goes to penalties.

Both players OK to continue.

OldCastleSwift

Gent score after Paqueta gives it away in midfield. Pretty appalling, that.

PrestonHammer

Ghost players again!

MrsGrey

Sorry, what was that?

buffybegood

Dreadful.

steve

Well this is going well

That. Was West Ham United.

Hamstew

That was pathetic beyond pathetic

This is going to be tough now. They’re a good side

buffybegood

They got hugely lucky as the shot that turned into an assist was shockingly bad, but very poor by Paqueta.

Yeoldhammer

I'd honestly sell Paqueta back to Lyon, he just doesn't work here imo. Either the players around him are not on the same wave length or he just isn't on their wave length and seems incapable of changing.

OldCastleSwift

The worrying thing is that they have players that can hurt us on the break. We need to score, but we could be vulnerable to the counter.

Not got a good feeling about how this one pans out.

Lukerz

As I said, Paqueta should not be in the side. Fornals & Lanzini must be fuming watching him & Soucek each week.

Actually, replay just shows that. So I'll let them off a bit - ball went where no-one was expecting.

buffybegood

Anderlecht have missed 2 or their first 3 penalties, 3 scored from 3 for AZ.

thornburyiron

They were the better team in the first leg and are the better team again this week.
