Europa League Games 18th Feb

Sociedad gave a great account for themselves, 4-0 is an unflattering score. Real could have been 4 up with the chances they created. Could have been two -up if their finishing was better up front. the Sociedad goalie cost them two of the first 3 goals. poor.

Strange thing is there was enough chances for Sociedad to win.

Like the fact the Rags had to go full stength for the Thursday Cup , Newcastle have had a full weeks rest and the Rags only 3 days and a trip to europe , wouldnt be surprised if the Geordies nicked something at the Swamp , the mitigating factor is they have elephant man as their manager and ex-Rags normally roll over for their ex-employers.

Didn't want to start a new thread but why are Spurs playing this Wednesday in the Europa (Thursday) League?

Arse are playing at home on the Thursday, UEFA won't let both play in the same city on the same day. Similar happened with our game against Porto years back.

Bit silly to still have it in place during lockdown though.

Yeah, makes it seem even sillier, although when the dates were released they were still down to play in the Emirates.
