That happened a few times too over here. He doesn't deserve it, Lukaku is a very friendly guy and never showed any arrogance/immature/bad behaviour. Really a good guy, nice in the interviews.

We hate Sunderland of course, shame on them.

Sincerely,
the Sunderland haters
Haha, remember us singing that in that bar, the one that was all fuzzy and swaying back and forth. Didn't we modify it to have a dig at Anderlecht as well?

Based on last season, Europa League>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Champion's league.

Saying that, they may well merge the two competitions. UEFA have fucked up European competitions for a while. Personally I want a return of the Cup Winner's Cup alongside the Champion's Leageu and UEFA cup.

The big clubs are just getting bigger the way things currently are - as fun as the Europa league was last season, the finalists only got around an 8th of what the CL lot got - one big competition would do me nicely actually, and ffs change the name back to the European Cup: you finish 4th in the Premier League and can enter the 'Champions League'???
Cup Winners Cup would be nice, but clearly most PL clubs aren't even arsed about the FA Cup these days (unless they find themselves in the QFs), and I think the same applies elsewhere in Europe.... money talks I'm afraid...:(

Same here indeed, Cup isn't important here too. Barely nets 6k fans, even with the biggest teams.

They should give more money for the EL, way more. Make the gap between CL-teams and EL-teams less big.
Hell, in my opinion they should reduce the CL fees and increase the EL fees with that same money.
