I wish we had 5 Turkish teams in European tournaments this season. But Trabzonspor failed to qualify for league phase because of their really poor performance. I wanted this for country coefficient as I said before. Our league can get more quota to join these tournaments directly. We have only Başakşehir competing in the Conference League and the rest are in the Europa League. I didn't like Başakşehir's game previously so they might also get eliminated like Trabzonspor.  Sad
I totally agree with you on this because I have seen how proactive the Turkish teams are this ongoing season in the European competitions and I wished we had a couple of them in the champions league. The Turkish league seem to be the next destination for European football because football seem to be thriving in Turkey and it is evident in the performances of Galatasaray and Fernebache, Istanbul basaksehir. Most importantly, the Turkish clubs have been attracting many high footballers all over Europe and has increased the interest of million of football enthusiast to the Turkish league and that's why we expect to see more Turkish clubs in the European competitions.

Why all the love only for Chelsea? We have some great teams playing tonight, Fiorentina, Wien, Gent, Brugge -- these have great European traditions too!

Haha who am I kidding, easy Chelski win en route and you'd have to be a diehard fan from whichever team is playing next to stay tuned. I'm off to Istanbul now for the more exclusive Europa League.

The bookies underestimate Chelsea, the odds for Chelsea to win is @1.60, considering Chelsea had a good history and Panathinaikos is an unknown team, I would say the odds is too high. I feel like it's a sure match for Chelsea, they're not lack of any players.

Honestly I don't really care with other match because they're not popular.

I bet on Chelsea to win. When I saw these odds, I didn't think much about it. I just took the time to analyze Panathinaikos. In my opinion, Chelsea has a better squad. But the problem is that Chelsea's coach, Maresca, seems to have created a specific squad just to play in the Conference League games. He probably did this because he doesn't see much importance in this league compared to the Premier League, so he's sparing the best players. Now the question is whether the players he selects to play in the Conference League have managed to get good results consistently. Even so, I preferred to take the risk of betting on Chelsea to win.



Games I bet on:

Panathinaikos Athens - Chelsea FC

Başakşehir FK will play Celje tonight. Normally, Celje is an easy opponent for Başakşehir FK, but Başakşehir FK cannot get the results it wants in Europe.
I expect it to win this match tonight, but I can't say for sure.
Let's watch and see.

Chelsea vs Gent
This will be the first time for this two teams to meet, and this will take place atStamford Bridge, this will be an opportunity for Chelsea to win due to their previous performance both Home and Away, for the past last five matches Chelsea have performed excellently, scoring a lot of goals and Cole Palmer who contributed in most goals will be absent tonight, my question is can Chelsea score more goals when Cole Palmer is absent?

I think Chelsea it self has already answered your question for you tonight. in which they are able to score four goals to two, even though they disqualified one of their goals if not it would have ended in 5 goals for them. But nevertheless, Chelsea are already try their best and they are always showing those that don’t have believe in them that they are always wrong. Many people not only you are thinking it is going to be hard for Chelsea to get more goals since Palmer is absent in the games. Although even with Palmer or without him they is a higher possibility that Chelsea will be able I win Gent in the game. In which that is exactly what happened. So all I will say is a nice performance from them.
Chelsea is on fire recently, they trouble their opponents seriously. My confidence in this team is increasing everyday and as their dominance in encounters are always obvious. Their coach really did a nice job Building the team's confidence and play pattern. They play really nice football now and for the first time in years, I was confident to stake on their match and I was not disappointed. I staked on them to score more than two goals and they scored past three.

If they continue this way, they would always have my stakes in their favor especially when it comes to goal scoring
The players who were featured in that match, are not the starting players for the team, a lot of potential players where not available for the match, yet they did put on such a brilliant performance, the team is undergoing a great revival, sooner or later they will be entitled to compete with the current elite clubs who are currently holding the top positions in the prestigious league. Maresca has brought Chelsea to the level where no doubt within, winning the Conference league is extremely possible, if they should keep on advancing their performance, the results for this season will be exceptional, winning this league and also qualifying for the Champions League, i definitely believe it is possible from what we are all seeing coming from the manager.

This will be the first time for this two teams to meet, and this will take place atStamford Bridge, this will be an opportunity for Chelsea to win due to their previous performance both Home and Away, for the past last five matches Chelsea have performed excellently, scoring a lot of goals and Cole Palmer who contributed in most goals will be absent tonight, my question is can Chelsea score more goals when Cole Palmer is absent?
Chelsea football team won this match easily in the absence of  Cole Palmer and that team don't depend on any single player. All players of that team are good and they know how to play like a team and they always take a chance and always try to do goal. The defense system of that team was also hard and they won this match easily . All players take part in this match and played their role in this match.Chelsea team is present at top position and they deserve that and they are favorite for this tournament.Now they are at 6 position and they will try to get 1 position in this tournament and they can do that. Gent team played bad and they should make their defense system strong. It is necessary to win match against big team.

Chelsea is doing what any other team might find very deficult to do now. Fielding a starting 11 that's totally different from the one that started thier last league game starting from the keeper to the players and still getting a good result as this with her second team? It's just incredible.

We have to give huge thumbs up to maresca for what he's doing with the boys and how he's managing this young talents. If things goes the part we are currently observing, in the coming years, these players will be at the top of thier game and the Chelsea team will have one of the strongest compilation of players.

Looking at the quality depth in Chelsea's squad, I wasn't surprised that the manager decided to name a starting XI that was completely different from the one that started their 4:2 win against  Brighton on this same Stamford Bridge ground and was able to get win against Gent with the same scoreline. This goes a long way to explain how improved Chelsea is at the moment and why they'll continue to improve under the new manager.
Enzo Maresca like you rightly said is doing a great job at the moment with the way he's rotating his team and even if you don't subscribe to his managerial style, you just have to accept the fact that he's succeeding. Good one for Chelsea.

You have caught me bro, my hands are up,🙌🙌 I am one of the greatest critique of Enzo mascara and his appointment, base on the fact that he is less experience and I feels like they are just using Chelsea football club as a testing ground if he can handle a bigger club, that's why as they have a terrible pre season, I have already jump to conclusions that Chelsea is actually going to be worst this season comparing to last season, but to be honest bro, he has really surprised me, he has done much more better than I can even imagined, if someone had told me that Chelsea will be this good under his leadership I wouldn't have ever agree with that person.

Though you said that till he has faced a stronger team, we shouldn't jump into conclusion yet, which is quite true, but in my own opinion, this Chelsea team I am seeing so don't have to prove anything to me again for me to know that they are actually good, they just need to improve the central back position and the goalkeeping position, then they are very much good to go, because colwill and Sanchez the goalkeeper are the only weakling I am seeing in this team right now, apart from that, every of the regular starter are good to me.
Yeah you've said it all but I don't think I agree with when you said colwill is one of the problems at that Chelsea defensive line, I watch Chelsea matches weeks in, weeks out. Colwill is the heart of that Chelsea defense right now. My opinion is for maresca to pair both Colwill and Tosin at that central defense and he should stick to the pairing. Fofona is struggling so much, thought is not doing that bad but he is not that solid the way every Chelsea fan will want him to be.

Sanchez since pre season he has been a big problem, making errors, slowing the build and so many more. When Chelsea played last weekend against bournemouth he was the man behind the 2 goals they conceded and some day he is going to bring the team down. He do makes some incredible saves but he needs to balance his game so the players and coach can have confidence in him.

Maresca is doing a really good work and with this I can see some glimpse that Chelsea will definitely do better than last season because the players have improved and the team As a whole have improved too so I think Chelsea this season will do well.

The answer has already been given to you after the match, to be honest, the Chelsea team is trying and I can say that Chelsea is coming back to the old Chelsea we all know before, Chelsea didn't play with some of the best players and still win the match against Genr yesterday, from the beginning of the league when I saw the line up I was feeling like Chelsea is going to struggle in the match because some player's that play for Chelsea I haven't see them in the pitch playing for Chelsea before, let be honest Chelsea coach is doing great because it is not easy to get a team back to a normal position when many managers try and they fail.

Enzo Maresca is following the steps of many coaches he has worked with and he is doing well, when he came to Chelsea and started saying he wouldn't use some players and those players needed to go I was like the man is about to make Chelsea worst than before but after sending out some player's I realize that he is doing a good job and we all can see that Chelsea currently is having a good season and with the way I'm seeing Chelsea the team will end in a good position this season.

Başakşehir FK will play Rapid Vienna in Istanbul tomorrow. It will be one of the first matches of the Conference League.
Başakşehir FK has a better quality squad.
Rapid Vienna is playing well, they are currently in second place in their own league.
I hope Başakşehir FK wins tomorrow and starts the Conference League with a win.

Başakşehir lost the first game in the conference league, despite performing very well, they dominated the ball better than Rapid Vienna, but the opponent's defense made it tough for them to break through. Istanbul Başakşehir's next Conference game is going to be against Celje, who lost their last game against Guimaraes. I hope Istanbul Başakşehir gets the first three points in that game.

I think Chelsea it self has already answered your question for you tonight. in which they are able to score four goals to two, even though they disqualified one of their goals if not it would have ended in 5 goals for them. But nevertheless, Chelsea are already try their best and they are always showing those that don’t have believe in them that they are always wrong.

Although even with Palmer or without him they is a higher possibility that Chelsea will be able I win Gent in the game. In which that is exactly what happened. So all I will say is a nice performance from them.

Do you believe Chelsea can win or score a lot of goals against a big team without Palmer? Chelsea can only score a lot against a weak team without him. Palmer has been an important player in Chelsea's victories this season, and I don't think the team would be able to defeat any strong opponent without him. Gent is a poor team from a small league, if Chelsea had used a stronger second squad, they wouldn't have conceded two goals, and Chelsea would have won with a clean sheet. Although I agree that Chelsea is playing well this season, I don't believe they can win many goals without Palmer, and Maresca should bench Palmer against Nottingham Forest if you believe they can score many goals.

This match just ended in favor of Chelsea. Chelsea won 4-2 against Gent fc in their historical meeting today for the opening of European conference league tournament. All credits to Maresca because he has really done a noticeable efforts at Chelsea in just few months he's been in charge of the club. Chelsea performance has improved greatly compared to previous season but Maresca still has a lot of work to do on the defense. They were supposed to keep a clean sheet in this game but they allowed two unnecessary goals. Badiasheli is not a reliable defender for Chelsea at a time of transition like this. The more goals the opponents score, the weaker your team becomes. Gents on the other hand also played well but they're not on the same class as Chelsea is now. Scoring four goals
We all know it was going to be an easy win for Chelsea, in just a month and some week maresca have really transformed this Chelsea team, there were alot of people who doubted him in reason because of his poor pre season run and even after the Manchester city matches some people were still complaining about his style of play. So far Chelsea are really doing well but we will have to wait for much bigger test to see how good they are.

From the start of the match Chelsea took absolutely control, throughout the first half Chelsea dominated the game and they got a goal in the first half with Renato Viega scoring his first Chelsea goal, he really played absolutely well and even assisted a goal

Early second half Chelsea scored with less than 5min from the restart with Pedro neto finishng with his right foot after a sweet lofted pass from Axel disasi to make the score 2-0 but it didn't last too long as Genk got one back and they played 2-1 for some time before Chelsea finished the game off with Christopher Nkuku and KDH getting their goals too. It was a one sided game as the match ended 4-2

This weekend Chelsea take on newcastle as that a much better test for the meresca team and it definitely going to be an interesting match to watch.

What you expect when they're playing with second goalkeeper and many young players? obviously they're not as strong as playing with their best eleven. At least they won, because in other leagues the big teams suffered lose or draw, says like Copenhagen and Real Betis weren't able to win.

Definitely Chelsea has very high chance to win this league, their opponents aren't in their level.

Well even if they are up to five teams I don't think they can meet up to the standard of what other teams are currently showing and like you said they might just end up being eliminated. Of all the Turkish teams in the European competition, I can only boast of two teams which are the likes of fernabache and Galatasaray who have been doing exceedingly well in terms of their gameplay and performance when it comes to these competition.
