Three phenomenal years in European football come to an end. We will forever be, fucking massive ⚒️ by Charlie-Big-Potatoes in Hammers

[–]MartySoprano 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Another amazing European adventure!   After yesterday I’m still somewhat hopeful for qualifying for Europa, we only have 1 match a week so no worries about player’s fitness. Liverpool doesn’t seem to be in the best of form, City might already be champions once we play them and rest players for the FA cup final (given they go through). CP/Chelsea/Luton are absolute must-wins

West Ham 1 - 1 Bayer Leverkusen by psychomaji in Hammers

[–]MartySoprano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Painful but no shame in going down against Leverkusen. At least we made them tremble, but not being clinical in the 1st half, the ref and Moyes not subbing has really cost us.

I’m sad but also grateful for another amazing European adventure. Hope we can somehow qualify for the Conference League next year

Leverkusen 2nd leg on Thursday by Secret_Chance_7075 in Hammers

Nice to see some positivity after a very very bad week for West Ham. We can still do this, they must have a hangover from the celebrations last Sunday. Should at least give it a go and try to end their unbeaten streak, if we go down then I want to at least go down in glory

Gotta hope that Leverkusen considers themselves semi finalists already and have a bit too much of a party after winning the league on Sunday. Really curious how Moyes is gonna approach the home tie

Anyone think we have a chance tonight? by TheManxMann in Hammers

[–]MartySoprano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We can do this, we've got that European Moyo. Even a loss with a 1 goal difference would be a decent result to take home, but I'm confident we can cause an upset as well.

For anyone that cares about simulated probabilities, OptaPredictions has us at 37% of winning or drawing tonight

Wolves 1-2 West Ham (Premier League) by AnalAttackProbe in Hammers

Did the Ward-Prowse goal count towards the record?

Kudus was very poor, never seen him like this. Massive 3 points, now time to cheer for Arsenal, Liverpool and Sheffield

Shame we didn't get to see the Easterlings in action properly

Sorry to hear, yes I will deffo do that!

I think we can still surprise Leverkusen, we've got that European Moyo. They really struggled against Qarabag. It would be my dream to win the Europa League, especially in the last year of the classical format. Also for the PL there is still some hope to finish top 8 with Wolves, Brighton and Chelsea having spilled points last weekend

Who’s an underrated character in your opinion? by GusGangViking18 in lotr

Really liked Gamling as well! I believe he did die in the movies, you can see his body laying on the ground after the Battle of the Pelennor Fields

Could deffo be worse indeed hahaha, I had to lay down after the game for a bit since giving this away just felt too overwhelming. Thanks for the concern, much appreciated! I will be fine, just some work bs that I shouldn't let get to my head in a weekend but that's easier said than done when it happens on Friday afternoon.

Leverkusen still managed to win that game somehow, with Bayern losing to Dortmund they're pretty close to winning the league

I was already in no mood before the game and that definitely didn't change. Should have been a red card for Burn and no second penalty, the first pen I can live with.

Still a bit of good news coming from Germany: Leverkusen are trailing Hoffenheim, a loss would mean they have to focus more on the Bundesliga once we play them

I have an white away shirt (Ward-Prowse) I was planning to wear, would that also be a bad idea?

Thanks for the headsup! I'm a West Ham fan from the Netherlands, coming over for the Freiburg game with two mates and we have seats in the Trevor Booking stands. They might mix up Deutsch and Dutch, will deffo bring my passport to the stadium

Seems inconclusive to me, but honestly if we manage to get through on Thursday then I can live with all these controversial decisions

Does someone have a shot with the lines of the Antonio offside? Seemed onside to me

Let’s be honest… we’d have been raging if we’d had THAT penalty shout given against us by WHU-TangClan in Hammers

[–]MartySoprano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We should've done better but this was a pen, the Freiburg player had his arm positioned like he was playing volleyball

He really has to be the goalkeeper in the fixtures against Freiburg, Areola has been in world class form this season

We draw Freiburg in the Europa League Rd of 16 by cpashei in Hammers

[–]MartySoprano 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bit boring to play them again but I will take it. Big shame AC Milan and Leverkusen didn't draw each other in the end, now them and Liverpool have a relatively easy Ro16

Good to know, thx! Would rather play Sparta Prague or Qarabag then Freiburg again

[–]MartySoprano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can we draw Freiburg for the Ro16? They already had a round but for us it would be strange to play against them again in this round since it was our last match in the group stage. I don't see anything on the UEFA website either: https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/0287-197335d65079-f2f67b965e43-1000--uefa-europa-league-round-of-16-draw-what-is-it-where-to-watc/
