Yes AS Roma has been doing well against weaker teams and has won five games. But when they play against stronger teams like Inter it's normal to expect them to lose. The draw against Feyenoord was good especially because they were playing in Holland and that can be difficult. Roma showed that they can keep going even when things are tough and they scored a goal through Lukaku. This gives hope for their chances in the Playoff phase.
Yeah it's enough for Roma to draw in this match, in the second leg, they will play in their own home and it gives them a benefit.

The match Galatasaray vs Sparta Prague is really tough, Galatasaray is lucky since Icardi can score a goal during the injury time. To be honest I'm really curious if Sparta Prague would pull an upset or not in the second leg, they're equal with Galatasaray.

5 matches with wins are against teams that are below the quality of AS Roma. So I think whoever the coach is should be when competing with those 5 teams they win. Against Inter, Inter is still above Roma. So I'm sure Roma will definitely lose. Whereas against Feyenoord with a draw it was good. Playing in Holland there is certainly more pressure. But I saw that Roma were made difficult, but Roma managed to steal a goal through Lukaku. There is hope they can make it through the Playoff phase.

Since De Rossi took over at Roma, they've played 7 games, he has won 5, drawn 1, and lost 1. The loss came from the most in-form team in the league while the draw came in an away match against an in-form Feyernoord in the Europe league. That's pretty much a good stat for me.
I don't know if De Rossi is a good manager or just thriving on the new manager bounce but I'm certain they would have lost much more games than 1 if they still had Mourinho as their coach.

A draw is not very good, but when you visit an opposing team, a draw is something valuable for Roma. Moreover, in their previous match, they were beaten by Inter Milan, so a draw against Feyenoord might be quite fair for them. However, Roma were runners up last season and with their less consistent performance this season it seems they will not be able to repeat the success of the previous season.

Since De Rossi took over at Roma, they've played 7 games, he has won 5, drawn 1, and lost 1. The loss came from the most in-form team in the league while the draw came in an away match against an in-form Feyernoord in the Europe league. That's pretty much a good stat for me.
I don't know if De Rossi is a good manager or just thriving on the new manager bounce but I'm certain they would have lost much more games than 1 if they still had Mourinho as their coach.

Feyenoord is a very good team and a team that knows how to score many goals so for them to score just 1 against Roma and not take all 3 points at home is a very positive result for Roma because now they have the advantage in the second leg. Roma is at home and I expect them to win the second leg.

AC Milan vs Rennes can be considered an already completed tie in my opinion, because there is no way this Rennes team would over such deficit against Milan, the most they can even get at their home in the 2nd leg would be a draw.
AC Milan were the favorite and they won the game 3:0 and played very nice. At home in the stadium they are stronger and Loftus-Cheek was the best player for AC Milan yesterday with 2 goals. The second game is on February 22nd and I think AC Milan will be very defensive in the first 45 minutes and after that Stade Rennes will have to risk a lot, I think it will be a draw. This year I see AC Milan as the favorite of the Europa League, they could win it. Other teams like Sporting Lissabon and Olympique Marseille are also, but no other.

This victory is valuable capital for Milan for the second leg match later. Now AC Milan can be said to be one step closer to qualifying for the next round because they only need to draw or lose by a difference of no more than three goals when they host Rennes in the second leg.

One step closer? I think AC Milan has confirmed its place in the next round. They beat Rennes with a score of 3-0. I think it will be very impossible for Rennes to catch up on the aggregate goals. Rennes' quality is below AC Milan's level so even though the second leg will host Rennes, I don't think they will be able to score with a 3 goal difference. AC Milan will already have a place in the next round if they are not unlucky in the second leg match.
AC Milan's excellent performance in the first leg is enough for them in the second leg, and they are consistently ahead. Beating Rennes 3-0 was enough for them, and Rennes may not be able to equalize in the next match. It is true, of course, that AC Milan will certainly not lose so easily to the opposition in the next round, and it is unlikely that Rennes will not be able to complete the treble. And since Milan are so far ahead now, it won't be that difficult for them in the second match, they will definitely be selected.

Milan played well from the start to the end of the match and their attacking style was different and they played calmly. Although Milan took a one-goal lead in the first half, Rennes tried hard afterwards but could not level the game. However, Milan were more attacking in the second half which led to two more goals and they were stronger on the field as they secured the win. Milan's attack was really different but in comparison Rennes also tried a fair number of goals but didn't succeed. However, Milan had the ball most of the time and Milan are in a good position at the moment and it's a credit to them for the great performance they put in and the win. As Milan have a three-goal lead in the first leg, they will not play with so much pressure in the next match, they will simply hold the opposition and be selected for the knockout stage.
Ac Milan was able to play well because they were superior in everything starting from the first and second half, they managed to dominate the game so it is not surprising that AC Milan was able to win very convincingly 3-0 over Rennes. Since the first half AC Milan appeared strong in pressing the Rennes defense, in this match the AC Milan squad was more dominant throughout the match and also more effective in maximizing opportunities. Good luck to AC Milan.

Milan had domination during the match, not only in ball possession but also in other cases. During the match, Milan was so calmly attacking. Well, they may not be too offensive in the first half. But it is quite different in the second half where Milan did more attacks and possession. That is why Rennes seems not having nay chance to get closer into Milan defense. This is a good start for Milan, so that they really can join the next qualification. Because I am also sure enough that in the second leg, Milan will be also leading.

AC Milan vs Rennes can be considered an already completed tie in my opinion, because there is no way this Rennes team would over such deficit against Milan, the most they can even get at their home in the 2nd leg would be a draw.

--------------------------

Is anyone else following how awful Ajax have become the season, they turned what should have been easy for them into a 2 goal deficit, fortunately enough for them they were able to recover during the additional minutes of the second half, first from the penalty spot, with Bodo/Glimt down to 10 men, and restored parity in the 96th minute of the game. Ajax would be playing the second leg away from home, and even though I'd be expecting them to win and advance to the next round, but I strongly doubt they can go far in the tournament when they face a better team and a real test.

AS roma only got a draw against the host feyenord 1-1. but in my opinion it's pretty good because playing away at feyenord's home. while the 2nd leg will compete at AS roma's home, so to advance to the next round AS romah is still on the track. but for the Italian league itself to be in the top 4 still feels difficult, especially with AS roma's current performance which has not shown its peak performance.
Yeah, it is not a too bad result. AS Roma could get 1 goal in the away match against Feyenoord. This can be very useful because AS Roma will play home in second Leg. AS Roma will get the advantage when they play at home. I hope AS Roma will win the next match, it is very possible to happen. I guess AS Roma will end the match with 2 goals.
Roma was very lucky to avoid defeat, the goal obtained in the second half gave Roma a chance in the second leg. This result is not too bad for Roma, they were still able to maintain their performance even though they fell behind to the home team. The second leg was a very important moment for Roma, victory was certainly De Rossi's target to take his team through to the next round.

Milan really know well how to utilized their home match because they got comfortable win from Rennes and during the match Milan was very dominate the game even at the beginning of first half Milan have already got several opportunities to scores from Leao and Loftus-Cheek and the goals from these players too makes Milan win the match and now Milan is almost certain to qualified to round of 16 and for Rennes i think their journey at this competition will be over because in the second leg to win 4 goals without conceded from Milan is very hard task for them especially with their current conditions
Milan won 3 - 0 from Rennes.

Just like you said, he has seen some levels of downside and it has dropped good number of points honestly. He would have grabbed three points against Feyenoord I believe but he's not here.
De Rossi did what's best for them you see on the road as they achieved a point, the second leg would definitely be in favor of them.
I would like to see Jose Mourinho as Roma coach till the season ending but I disagree with you that if he is still in Rome, he will lead Roma to win the match in Netherlands.

Recall that in three previous matches, Roma have two draws and one win. In Netherlands last season quarter final in Europa League, they only got a draw and even in Roma, they draw each other after 90 minutes.

By history and quality of two teams, I want to say even Mourinho is a Roma coach, I believe they will have a draw just similar with De Rossi as their head coach in reality.

Two teams will have to find a ticket to move to a next round in Rome and hopefully we will have an exciting match to watch.

Undoubtedly, Jose Mourinho's performances in last days at Roma wasn't anywhere near impressive and that was the main reason he was sacked by the club but let's also not forget the fact that in his first season at Roma, he helped the club to lift the UEFA Conference League trophy. So while we talk about his shortcomings, we should also remember of his great contributions to the history of the club.

Daniele De Rossi since his appointment as the new managers of As Roma have doing exceptionally well for the club and the draw tonight at Feyenoord is a big step they've taken to reach the round of 16 in the UEFA Europa League competition. Hopefully they seal their win in the tie next week in Rome

He was a top man, the special one as we all know him, won them the first silverware in a long time and they the fans was so excited to see that coming from the Special one.
I would blame both the manager and the management, the heads of As Roma for hmif they had supported like they should have done, then, Jose Mourinho shouldn't have been sacked and would've been in a good place to win the Scudetto League Competition.

Just like you said, he has seen some levels of downside and it has dropped good number of points honestly. He would have grabbed three points against Feyenoord I believe but he's not here.

Milan doesn't want to waste this opportunity so they managed to secure the first leg, next, in the second leg match Milan will play carefree because they are already leading by 3 goals meaning a draw is enough for them to qualify for the next round. This is different from other teams from the Italian League such as Roma who are also playing the first leg today Roma could only draw 1-1, but Roma still have a big chance in the second leg when playing at home Basically, Roma opportunity is still open and Roma certainly doesn't want to waste this last opportunity.

Milan was winning with great aggregates and i think that the chance to be qualified for the top 16 is very big. The next leg must not become a hard thing be beaten by roma. Its opponent was a weak team and i think that milan will win with good scores in the second leg. Im feeling so damn good with the performance showed by milan.
Pioli has been getting perfect result and this will be helping him to stay at acmilan as long as he will able to bring acmilan to get the europa league trophy this season.

Regarding roma. The club has been performing quite well. It can be seen from the draw between it and its competitor. Feyenoord will in disadvantage for the second leg. Im thinking that if roma may be able to get better result aginst feyenoord.
The statistics showed by both were not having big gaps. So, the chance for feyenoord to make it will always be there. I think roma needs to work even harder to improve its performance.

The game between Feyenoord and AS Roma was quite amazing, seeing both teams struggle to have a goal. To be sincere, I thought AS Roma were going to win the game, but it ended up in a draw. Never the less, there is still a second leg, and I am quite sure that AS Roma will definitely win the match because De Rossi has been trying a lot for the team, and from all indications, improvements have been made and achieved, so we look forward to their next game.
Correct. The Feyenoord vs AS Roma match was very fierce and a draw would be very profitable for As Roma. De Rossi has tried his best so far even though we know this match will not be easy for Roma, especially with a new coach. However, De Rossi managed to provide resistance to Feyenoord so that As Roma was able to give their opponents difficulties. Although it must be admitted that this match was difficult for As Roma, the reason is that Feyenoord can always cause problems for As Roma's defense when they control the ball.

However, fortunately, As Roma also appeared more aggressive so they were able to get out of the pressure, even though it was not easy against a team that was able to move the ball well, this draw was good enough for De Rossi's first match in the European league. De Rossi can still prove it later in the second leg which will be played in front of his own supporters so that As Roma's chances of advancing to the next round are very wide open.

Roma can at least still scores when it was playing away. Feyenoord has equal performance compared to the roma. These clubs are so struggling to beat each other even though there have been many shoots were happening.
They have same quality and the first leg match again proves it. They had a draw and the match is quite balancing between two teams. With this draw at a home-away stadium, AS Roma will have a little bit advantage before hosting Feyenoord at their home stadium Olimpico but this advantage is not too big. I am not surprised if they get another draw at Olimpico and have to play extra halfs or even penalties.

Quote
Roma needs be careful for the second leg. Playing at home gives roma more advantage but i think that we shall never ever underestimate our opponent. I was not betting in this match coz it's hard to bet on it. It was too risky to take caused by feyenoord is as strong as roma.
Roma only needs to beat Feyenoord at home to go next, a draw like 0 - 0 can not help them to go next because there is no longer home-away advantage by new rules from UEFA.

Roma created many opportunities in a first leg match but they only scored one goals from a Lukaku headshot. One shot from Paredes hits the cross bar and they wasted other chances. Feyenoord shown that they are strong and can create dangerous chances and can score goal against Roma. They can even think of beating Roma at Olimpico so I agree with you on this, Roma need to win a next match but they must play very carefully.

Galatasaray beat Sparta Prague 3-2.
Icardi scored in the last minute and we won the game. We played well tonight, but we gave away too many chances and conceded 2 goals.
We took the advantage for the next game. Muslera is definitely the best player tonight.

Actually the two teams played well we can see it based on statistics not much different attacks and shots, I have to say this is a loss for Galatasaray for conceding 2 goals because in the second leg Sparta Prague could have defeated Galatasaray one of the reasons for playing at home. Anyway, Galatasaray is not safe they have to fight in the second leg and of course it's not easy and the red card will also have an impact on their line up in the upcoming match this means that there is a line that must be considered.

Overall I saw Galatasaray in the downward trend I still remember how they played in the Champions League a few months ago but in the European League they don't play optimally, but yeah we haven't been able to conclude whether Galatasaray will be eliminated who knows Galatasaray can give a surprise in the second leg match. For the second leg I was very sure there would be many goals like the first leg and the two teams will score each other so placing bets on both teams to score is very interesting.

It is a disadvantage as those were 2 away goals and if praha manages to win 1-0, 2-1, they are the ones that will go through on away goals. Great that time and time again Icardi has shown up to score a crucial goal. Muslera did okay, saved the ones he was supposed to but I think Mertens was great for the 89 mins he played. Made a couple of crucial passes as well

Rome made a big mistake by firing Mourinho. He was one of the best coaches, if not the best coach in the EL and could have achieved the best result with the team. De Rossi simply doesn't have the experience to be able to work at such a level like him.

I don't mean to underestimate Jose Mourinho, but he was unable to bring AS Roma's ranking up in the Serie A League competition. When Mourinho was still managing Roma, they were ranked 9th in the Serie A standings, in the Europa League group phase Roma were only able to finish in second place. 2nd. Last season, Roma lost in the first leg when they visited Feyenoord with a score of 0-1, at that time Jose Mourinho was in charge of the AS Roma squad. which means, Jose Mourinho is no better than De Rossi.

On the other hand, AS Roma was able to match the home team with a score of 1-1. as I said before, it could potentially end in a draw. even though in truth, I favor AS Roma. but unfortunately, this match ended in a draw. Well, it's not certain that if AS Roma was still managed by Jose Mourinho, Roma would be able to win the match against Feyenoord. In fact, there is no guarantee of that. On the other hand, in this match, under the guidance of De Rossi, AS Roma played quite well. he was able to instruct his team by providing resistance to the home team. The point is, the two teams played quite evenly even though Feyenoord dominated the match a little more. In this match, De Rossi played with an offensive pattern. At least he didn't fail to bring his team to defeat against Feyenoord, even though he was playing away from home. I think De Rossi has shown his best performance for his squad.  We'll see, in the second leg match later.
Undoubtedly, Jose Mourinho's performances in last days at Roma wasn't anywhere near impressive and that was the main reason he was sacked by the club but let's also not forget the fact that in his first season at Roma, he helped the club to lift the UEFA Conference League trophy.

Daniele De Rossi since his appointment as the new managers of As Roma have doing exceptionally well for the club and the draw tonight at Feyenoord is a big step they've taken to reach the round of 16 in the UEFA Europa League competition. Hopefully they seal their win in the tie next week in Rome

Roma can at least still scores when it was playing away. Feyenoord has equal performance compared to the roma. These clubs are so struggling to beat each other even though there have been many shoots were happening. It means if the situation is just getting even more difficult. Im guessing that if there will be many people believe roma can win the second leg which is going to happen at roma's home. The performance from roma was not that bad but it's still disappointed me to see that. Roma could win the game as long as the attackers were not so wasteful in this match. I have predicted romna would be struggle to beat feyenoord.

Roma needs be careful for the second leg. Playing at home gives roma more advantage but i think that we shall never ever underestimate our opponent. I was not betting in this match coz it's hard to bet on it. It was too risky to take caused by feyenoord is as strong as roma.
The second leg is gonna be much easier for roma to beat feyenoord as long as roma can take the advantage of it. Rossi shall not miss an opportunity to win against feyenoord and it goes to the last 16.
