If Liverpool underrates Atalanta they might get punished, but knowing Liverpool, they're a team that doesn't underrate any team so they're going to play that match like their lives depend on it. I see Liverpool winning that one. They might have it difficult in Italy, but at Anfield, Liverpool will surely win. It's not going to be a simple walk over but Liverpool will qualify.
Whoever the opponent Liverpool will face is a big challenge for Liverpool, there is no such thing as underestimating it because clubs that are not so favored are usually able to provide unexpected surprises, therefore Liverpool remains focused and must be careful so as not to be careless and make mistakes that cause them experienced a defeat, Liverpool has a higher chance of winning at Anfield but when competing away Liverpool might experience difficulties but I think Atalanta cannot create a large aggregate in breaking into Liverpool's goal because Liverpool has a very strong defense.

Well, coincidentally Liverpool's first leg will be played at home, Liverpool must win with a big score if they want to be sure of qualifying for the semifinals and it looks like Liverpool will do that so that in the second leg Liverpool won't try harder to beat Atalanta. Even a draw in the second leg is enough to bring Liverpool qualify because I am very confident that Liverpool will get rid of Atalanta in this round, even though the Serie A representative is not an ordinary club, Liverpool's performance in the Premier League is enough to prove Liverpool's impressive abilities at the moment.

Rome is looking better with De Rossi as a coach and they are clearly on a upgrading path, but if you ask me i dont really trust on them, they ahve very bad games were they can make anything as planed.

Maybe they can beat Milan but nothing more after that.
If you watch Milan last game, you will know that Rome will not have their way to beat Milan because they have defenders that will hodl that defense strong until they achieve their goal in this season and, their coach still have more skills to impact to his players to continue performing through out the season.

I know that game can change at anytime but it will be difficult for this game to change for the favour of Rome because I know it will not be easy for Rome strikers to make their coach happy in this game and the Rome players will know that they meet strong team.
Actually, for the first leg I feel that if Roma feel unable to beat Milan at the San Siro then they just need to hold Milan to a draw and Roma just have to try to win in the second leg when they are the hosts. Milan is a difficult opponent who has even had a higher level of consistency than Roma this season. So even if Roma loses in this match, I feel that it is normal and De Rossi will not be blamed at all. Because Milan is indeed a strong enemy who is currently ranked 2nd in Serie A. It's just that if Roma manages to win then De Rossi's name will really get more attention. And his reputation will increase greatly.

To me, that is a 50/50 match. I do not like that two Italian teams are facing each other, but since it's like this it's going to be a tough match. Roma have been playing better recently and I don't believe they don't stand a chance against Milan. Milan is good but they're not good to the extent of walking through Roma easily.
The fact that they're in the same league makes things very complicated. They're two teams that know and understand each other with a lot of rivalry. It's not going to be easy for both teams but I'm going to go risky and bet on Roma.
Have matches in Europe between two Italian clubs can make their matches very boring because they understand each other very well and their traditional tactics from Italy.

Change in Roma coach position shows that they are playing more attacking football with De Rossi and it gives me hope that their quarter final matches might not be boring. Just my hope and I could be wrong if De Rossi will force his players to play more defensive football and play more carefully against AC Milan. Playing more defensive and carefully against a stronger opponent, is nothing wrong but will Roma coach use this tactic for his team?

In 2000s (2003 - 2004) season maybe, there is a Champions League final match between AC Milan and Juventus and it is a very boring final match.

Many people think both teams can make it to the final this season, but somehow I'm not sure Leverkusen will make it to the final. This is still the quarter-final stage and all teams will fight, even if Leverkusen can qualify for the semifinals then I am sure the competition will be even more difficult. I'm only optimistic about Liverpool's performance and chances in the Europa League, the rest is not.
Why do you doubt Leverkusen to be in the final round?
Although Leverkusen didn't play very impressive in the match against Qarabag, they finally eliminated Qarabag and keep the record of unbeaten in all competition during this season. Don't you think Leverkusen deserve to play against Liverpool in the final with this unbeaten record? In my own opinion, I even believe that Leverkusen deserve to win this competition. You can see the fact that Liverpool got 2 loses in the group stage but Leverkusen played perfectly with 100% win. So, it is quite strange if you don't trust Leverkusen to be in the final match.  Undecided
Agree. It is very difficult not to put a team like Leverkusen in the final, they have been very consistent this season and have not even been beaten and Leverkusen have set new records in the Bundesliga and Europe. Indeed, in football anything can happen, especially in European competition, the team at the top can lose to the team below, but looking at Leverkusen's progress this season, it seems very difficult to stop them. When fighting against Qarabag, their struggle was very visible. They do not give up easily and continue to try as hard as they can until they achieve victory. So I hope Leverkusen progresses to the final.

Quote
Liverpool may score many goals but the performance of Liverpool didn't very impressive. If Liverpool plays against a team that has a strong defense, I'm not sure Liverpool can win it easily. We must be aware that Liverpool will play against Atalanta, it is one of the teams from Serie A (Italia league). They must be careful because a team from Serie A always has a great defense.

Why don't you trust Leverkusen? I think, when we look at the season in general, Leverkusen's performance is even better than Liverpool. Some people underestimate the German league, but there are really strong teams. Being undefeated there until this part of the season is not something everyone can do. Even Bayern couldn't achieve such an undefeated streak in their best seasons. I think Leverkusen's chances of reaching the final are greater than Liverpool's. They are one of the fittest teams in Europe at the moment. It would be different if it was the Champions League, but in the Europa League they look by far the best.

Roma journey to reach the final round this season was very difficult, although I admit their performance has improved since De Rossi took over the managerial role from Jose Mourinho. Milan is the most difficult opponent for Roma to beat, because in the last five matches Roma has not even been able to beat Milan. So the biggest possibility in the future is that Milan will face Leverkusen in the semifinals. However, everything can change, the European League is actually difficult to predict because many teams perform differently from their domestic league.
I also wouldn't say it's easy for Roma to qualify for the Europa League final this season, but they certainly have a chance worth fighting for. Milan is a more solid team than Roma and I'm sure Milan will maximize their chances of qualifying for the semifinals and even reaching the final. The competition will be increasingly difficult and unfortunately there is only one team from Serie A that will qualify for the semifinals considering that Atalanta will probably lose against Liverpool.

Liverpool versus Leverkusen is indeed the ideal final that many people hope for, the reputation of these two teams this season has become an attraction for European League fans. Meanwhile, we are all curious about Leverkusen strength when facing a team like Liverpool, where I think their unbeaten record could end in the hands of the Premier League representatives. Apart from that, we will first see which teams will be able to qualify for the semi-finals, it is possible that Milan will be eliminated by Roma by surprise.

One of things I'm curious about this season is whether De Rossi will manage to carry Roma to the finale just as Mourinho did in the previous season. Maybe things didn't went well for Mourinho in the Serie A back then but he was still doing quite nice in European tournaments. First a Conference League title and later on reaching the finale in the Europa League.  Smiley

This would be really important for De Rossi to increase his chances to get a new contract from the board. His contract is until the end of the season for now you know. If he carries Roma to the finale here and into top 4 in the Serie A I see no reason for the board to not continue with him.
I do not think that it will happen, last year Roma did managed to play against some very good teams there is no doubt about that, but Roma has to beat Milan, Leverkusen and Liverpool depending on which one of them they will face or not, that's way too much. I am not saying that they will face all, but they may face at least one or possibly more, and Mourinho never had to face any team like that, which is important.

We need to make sure that we do not expect the worlds from them, let them be and there won't be any problems at all. I hope that we are going to end up with a much better result eventually, but we just need to accept the way it is right now without having to worry about anything else at all. Roma could lose, and still be considered a success by De Rossi.
Yes, Roma has high hopes of continuing to progress as their performance improves under De Rossi's control. De Rossi still lacks experience and the match against AC Milan will really determine the extent to which he is able to compete as a coach who has a bright future in Europe. If I were a Roma fan then I wouldn't have high hopes for De Rossi, success in beating opponents from one country in the quarter-finals would be the key for the Giallorossi to be able to talk a lot.

Daniele De Rossi is a young coach, he brought excitement to the team again, there were some changes, but I think Milan is still a strong rival compared to Rome, but anything can happen. Let me also say that no matter which of these two teams wins, I do not allow them to progress further. Liverpool will not have much difficulty in the quarter-final matches, and most of the remaining matches will be competitive matches.

Daniele De Rossi was a player I admire so much, I could also vividly recall De Rossi performance back then as being a fantastic defensive midfielder in As Roma and both on the country side and who played a significant role in club and country and in helping Italy won the 2006 FIFA World Cup, And now as coach I kind of think his bringing that quality in him to his coaching career.

What has been shown so far should be able to make many people believe in De Rossi to make Roma much better and indeed the progress is clearly visible as Roma's performance is increasing and this is proven by the positive results they have achieved.
To play against MIlan is difficult because AC Milan is also a team that has good quality but I think the percentage is still the same for both teams and no matter how far Roma have gone this season I think they still have a chance and I never doubt them.
Roman performance has no doubt increased and they have really done well and I think they can actually go far in this competition if they can keep up with the performance but even at that it's not easy for them to pave their way to the trophy because they are alot of good teams that also have more standard and playing strength that them example will be teams like Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen but one thing about football thats fun is that no one can be too certain about q particular team winning a title till the whole matches are decided .

I am certain he is already working towards achieving that and with how far he has come with the club, he will get the chance to help them achieve that- first, finishing at top four of the Serie A and secondly, reaching the final of the Europa League competition. The earlier seems to be more easier for him to achieve than the later. They’re just three points away from their close opponent on fourth place and eight point away from third place Juventus. It may seem so hard for them to reach the third position but the fourth place is almost certain for them to be able to be replaced.

In the Europa league, they need to remain focus, consistent and try their best to reach the finals as many top teams are still in the competition that will give them a tough time to reach the finals of the competition. If De Rossi really wants to keep his work and get an extension of contract, he has to make the team be at their best and achieve either of this two by end of the season.

If you think AS Roma has poor quality players and or gameplay, but the fact is De Rossi can still successfully improve the quality of AS Roma performance. Amazingly, De Rossi also managed a big improvement for AS Roma position in the Serie A standings and again got a big chance to be able to finish in the topfour. Also, De Rossi was previously doubted to be able to provide good results for AS Roma in the Europa League butyes, in fact again and again De Rossi managed to provide good results for AS Roma in the Europa League also at thismoment. Therefore, saying or assuming AS Roma has poor player quality and or poor gameplay for me is not right because after all, the players in the current AS Roma squad are also Mourinho's chosen players.

I think it is quite true that DeRossi has significantly contributed to AS Roma performance and his impact on the team's standing in Serie A and Europa League is commendable. However, evaluating a teams overall quality based on individual players can be misleading, the performance of a football club depends on various factors including tactics, teamwork and the coach. The coachs role in selecting and guiding the players should also be considered.

You are right. When De Rossi becomes the coach of AS Roma, they seem to perform better. I can admit that AS Roma has a great improvement in their performance. However, I'm not really sure that their current performance is enough to beat AC Milan. Honestly, I still assume that AC Milan is the favorite to win the match. You can see the position of AC Milan in Serie A, they are in the 2nd place of Serie A standings. AC Milan succeeds to overtake Juventus in the runner-up position. I think it simply indicated that AC Milan is the 2nd strongest team in Serie A.

Daniele De Rossi is a young coach, he brought excitement to the team again, there were some changes, but I think Milan is still a strong rival compared to Rome, but anything can happen. Let me also say that no matter which of these two teams wins, I do not allow them to progress further. Liverpool will not have much difficulty in the quarter-final matches, and most of the remaining matches will be competitive matches.
Agree. De Rossi has bring a positive improvement for AS Roma. However, they must fight with AC Milan in the quarter final of UEL. AC Milan performance looks to be more stable than AS Roma. AC Milan also has a stronger squad, they are one of the favorite team to be in the final round of UEL. Although many people assume that De Rossi is capable to lead AS Roma to beat AC Milan, I personally doubt it. He still has not enough experience to win the matches in an international competition like Europa League.

Roma was going through a bad situation with Mourinho before De Rossi took over the team, but I believe that they were able to express themselves better and reflect the tactics on the field better with De Rossi. Daniele De Rossi is a coach who knows the team well and I think he will show us matches at a higher level. They are in a race with Bologna for the UCL.
