  • Long distance for United…

    Manchester United will have to travel far and wide for their Europa League group stage games this season.

    The Red Devils will make a 4,200 mile-round trip to Cyprus to challenge Omonia and will travel 3,600 miles to Moldova and back to take on Sheriff in Group E.

    These long journeys could really take a hit on the United players, as they also face a tough test against Real Sociedad in the groups.

    All this among the Premier League games that they will be playing, makes it a much tougher draw than it looks on paper for United.

  • West Ham’s new boy…

    West Ham will be looking to be victorious in this year’s rendition of the UEFA Europa Conference League, and they have agreed a deal for a big player who could help them do so…

    Lucas Paqueta has been the latest starlet to come out of Ligue 1 with Lyon, and has commanded a £51 million price tag.

    He is a midfielder of immense talent, scoring 21 goals and provided 14 assists in 80 appearances for Lyon as well as being capped 33 times by Brazil, and netting seven times.

  • Games to watch out for

    Now that the draw is over for both European competitions, we can round up some of the most exciting games that have been drawn.

    These are the ones we think you should be most excited for…

    Europa League:

    • Arsenal vs PSV
    • AS Roma vs Real Betis
    • Manchester United vs Real Sociedad

    Europa Conference League:

    • Fiorentina vs Istanbul Basaksehir
    • West Ham vs Anderlecht
    • OGC Nice vs Koln
    • Hearts vs Fiorentina
  • West Ham’s group…

    This is how West Ham’s Europa Conference League group stage draw will look this season.

    They landed a somewhat tricky group, including FC FCSB, Anderlecht and Silkeborg, although it was far from the worst possible outcome.

    Many fans won’t recognise FC FCSB, as they changed their name from Steaua Bucuresti in 2017, but Chelsea fans may remember when they beat the Romanian outfit 1-0 in the 2013 Champions League.

    Anderlecht could too be a tricky opponent, as they have produced some of the finest Belgian talents we have seen, such as Romelu Lukaku and Youri Tielemans.

    Overall, however, you would expect West Ham to win all their games in this group with relative ease, and move on to the knockout rounds of the competition.
