Yes, Liverpool has indeed performed well this season, both in the Premier League and in the European League, so far Liverpool has only suffered one defeat in the Premier League and in the European League, Liverpool has also performed well, although many think that Liverpool will have the opportunity to win the European League this season. but we can not just judge because its too early for thats, Liverpool struggle to win the title is still long. Apart from that, Liverpool also has strong rivals who have the potential to win the European League title this seasons, namely Leverkusen and Roma, they both haven't suffered defeat in 3 match in European league I think the competition between the three of them will be quite fierce and they will fight as hard as possible in this competitions.

Brighton has 4 points now. The club can easily go to the next stage if brighton will able to winning another game soon. Brighton was slowly but surely going back to the what it used to be. It will not really surprise me caused by brighton basically has better quality compared with the rest of clubs in this group but i don't know why brighton was playing so average. Some changes being made by zerbi in the club and it was able giving three points for brighton. The competition is also very strict this time.
Brighton has same points with AEK once marseille is still leading the group stage this time. Brighton has only 1 point gap to the marseille which is proven if it will not be so hard for brightont to lead the group stage.
Let's see what's gonna come for brighton soon. The club needs to win the remaining match to be the winner of this group. Ajax was the worst team in this group. No doubt if it was always struggle in getting three points from other club.
Brighton is still in the safe position right now. The club may not have chance if brighton would be failed to get the three points from the last game.

Brighton is strange because they have these very weird results but in both directions.

When you look at their season, they got started with two games winning both of them 4-1. Then they lose at home against West Ham 1-3, but then win against Newcastle 3-1. Then they win against Manchester United away 3-1 and after another 3-1 at home, they lose 1-6 against Aston Villa. What the.... is going on there? In my opinion these results are really weird and it would destroy their Europa League dreams if they have one bad day and lose a game big time in the knockout rounds.

The truth is that Brighton have really being impressive in their first season in the UEFA Europa League and as a first time experience, it's fair to tag them good with the results they've been able to achieve so far.
That being said, we mustn't conclude that they're strong enough to compete for Europa League trophy because the only team they were able to beat in the competition this season is Ajax who's been absolutely poor since the start of the season especially in their league. With the current squad and performance of Brighton, I don't think they can make it pass the quarter final stages of the competition.

I think as a newcomer, this result is already pretty good. I'm a little optimistic about Brighton.  Ajax are not a small team, they are an experience team in the UCL or Europa League. This victory made their chances even greater to qualify for the knockout round. They can draw against Marseille and they should be able to seize the moment when playing at home. Then get at least one point in every away match or three points when facing AEK. Plus obliged to win against Marseille at home. Otherwise, their steps will be a little heavy.

I just don't see that.
Brighton's condition is still very good in my opinion even though there are some unexpected matches that make them have to lose but for the size of the club that has the status of a dark horse it is actually very good in my opinion.
In domestic competitions indeed in the last few matches they have not been very stable especially with the statistics now from 10 matches they have lost 3 times even with unexpected scores but when they see they can still compete with the tight schedule it has also shown that they are still very serious about the targets they want to achieve this season.
In addition to the competition in the Europa League 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss can actually still be categorized as something that can still go well for a debutant club like them.
Although they are currently in third place, they can still compete considering the difference in points in group B is still very small so their chances are still very good.

What you say is true, Brighton won the match with a score of 2-0, I see that Ajax's performance in the local league is indeed declining sharply in several matches, I'm not too confident about Ajax in the future in this league.

I also hope that Brighton must continue to show its performance which is on fire and continue to be united in the team, the struggle is not only in Eufa but the local league must continue to maintain it if next year it will return to Eufa. This is the next tough task for a coach to prepare each player to stay fit in every match.

The point is, Liverpool just haven't really found an opponent who is equal to them. especially if we refer to the group E phase. theoretically, there is no opponent who is truly equal to them. however, after the Champions League preliminary round ended. teams entering the playoff phase could become a stumbling block for Liverpool if they met. It could be, if Man United is eliminated and ends up in this competition. At the same time, there are several United players who have recovered from their injuries. So, it's possible that The Red Devil will return to his best performance. btw, this is just an example if United were eliminated in the Champions League and ended up in the European League.

Likewise with Sevilla, even Newcastle, Dortmund, Milan, have the potential to end up in the Europa League. Some of the teams I mentioned could be teams capable of overthrowing Liverpool before heading to a further stage. Leverkusen is no exception, they also have the potential to experience defeat. After all, in football winning and losing is a common thing even though theoretically and statistically, Liverpool and Leverkusen are in their best performance. Of all the teams competing in the group phase of this competition, only two candidates will be strong competitors in the race for the trophy of this competition. So after all, nothing is certain as long as Liverpool is not sure of qualifying for the next phase, including my favorite team, namely Leverkusen. Well, if these two teams meet, it looks like it will be an exciting and very interesting match.

Brighton performance in the EPL is still better than Chelsea and Man United this season, two elite clubs that have spent large budgets in the transfer market but have not been able to find their best form so far. The current position of De Zerbi squad in the standings is proof that they are better than The Blues and The Reds Devils, I don't think they are too bad. Meanwhile, in the Europa League, Brighton should be able to qualify from the group phase and use the remaining three matches to gain points.

Playing for the first time in the Europa League was a special moment for De Zerbi squad, they recorded their first win over Ajax with a score of 2-0. If they manage to qualify for the round of 16, then they will record new history throughout the club journey. It is felt that the squad depth that Brighton currently has is sufficient to say a lot in this second European competition, but they must have a better mentality to compete with more experienced clubs.

I doubt AS Roma would be the champions of the Europa this season considering their current form and results, even in their local league, they have not really been their best but then they have got some good players and a good coach aswell, klop has always dreamt of lifting the Europa league title and on several attempts he has failed, I don't think this time he will let go.

He has a better squad now like you rightly stated and they are in their best from aswell as can be seen in their performance in the premier league where they had won their match this weekend and over the week they Also wom their Europa game too. With consistency I think this s is the best chance for klop.and he's definitely going to make the best out of it. If you want to bring AS Roma and Liverpool to comparison, you will see that the dept is wey much different as they have very much unequal strength it's only Leverkusen that could possibly pose a threat to Liverpool in the Europa this season.

In my opinion, the victory over Ajax is not a benchmark that Brighton's game continues to improve. because Ajax, whose mentality is currently slumping in the domestic league, is at the bottom of the standings and has been carried over to the European league competition. So, Brighton deserved to win this match and it wasn't a surprise. They had to prove to AEK Athens whether they would accept another defeat or win.


Of course, winning over Ajax is an important asset in order to still have hopes of qualifying from the group phase. Moreover, next week Brighton will face Ajax again at Ajax's home ground, they have to steal three more points to increase their confidence.

Several teams really deserve to be favorites for the Europa League title this season including Liverpool, Roma and several others. Meanwhile Roma should not make the Europa League their main focus this season, because after all they must have a good focus on improving their form in Serie A.

I don't know who will advance to the final this season, but Liverpool seems to be the one who is believed to get there. Several other teams that will fall out of the Champions League group stage will soon be joined by the best teams from the Europa League group stage, so the competition will be very difficult and of course we don't know who will be able to qualify from there.

I think indeed, at first Brighton had a chance to qualify but who would have thought, that Brighton had a decline in performance this season. Because after all, before the start of this season too, in fact many predicted Brighton would be able to compete also in the top four in the Premier League. But what has happened so far this season, that Brighton does not have a stable performance. But for Brighton chance in the Europa League I think itis clear, that Brighton still has a chance to be able to qualify for the knockout phase in the Europa League this season.

Liverpool were in a fairly easy group in the group phase so it is quite natural that they have an unimpeded path to qualifying for the next round. 3 wins have proven that Liverpool is very strong in the European league this season. It could be that Kloop will target the European League trophy this season and also he has players who can be relied on to advance to the European League final this season. In the next match, Liverpool will face Toulouse in the second leg of the group phase and this match seems quite easy for Liverpool because in the first leg they were able to beat Toulouse with a big score.

Roma and Leverkusen should also not be underestimated because these two teams are quite strong this season. Leverkusen is also targeting the European League trophy this season. They are quite ready with the current squad. For Roma, they will improve their performance in the European League this season and Mourinho will realize their target of winning the European League trophy this season.

Still remember wirh Liverpool loss their opportunity for winning UEFA Europe League tittle after beating by Sevilla in the final on season 2015/16. Although with easily in group stage match still not guarantee with Liverpool will win Europe League tittle because have unpredictable teams will eliminate The Kop in knock out run such as have possibility if Sevilla elimated from Champion League and play in Europe League.

Right now, Jurgen Klopp have better squad than other teams but still have Bayern Leverkusen, AS Roma and several eliminated teams from Champion League have large oportunity for winning Europe League tittle. My favorite team in this season is AS Roma for winning Europe League tittle.

I agree with you, I look at the list of teams taking part in the Europa League competition this season and it doesn't seem like it will be too difficult for Liverpool to reach the final round. In contrast to the EPL, even though they have only suffered one defeat against Tottenham this season, I think the Reds struggle is more difficult when compared to the European League. Three games with 9 points and now leading group E, I think their path is quite smooth in the group phase this time.

With Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp has not yet managed to win the Europa League trophy, they almost won it in the 2015-2016 season but lost to Sevilla in the final. This time I think his squad can reach the final again, because if you look at the depth of the squad he currently has, Klopp still has a better squad than other clubs.

Liverpool is performing really well right now. The recent loss that I can think of was against Tottenham, and of course, Tottenham is the team that is in the first position right now. But then that loss could have been easily avoided.  Anyway if we talk about the Europa League competition, I do not think that there are any teams that will actually cause Liverpool too many problems,  to be honest. At least not till we reach the semi-final or final of the competition. I have high hopes for Liverpool in this season in almost all the competitions. I hope they will be able to deliver.

But for now, they know what to do. The first defeat on debut in a big competition like the Europa League gives the impression that they are still lacking in building the club so they are trying  to do better.
Now with 1 draw, 1 win and 1 loss from 3 matches they did I think they are getting used to the rhythm in the Europa League and the second leg will definitely be more interesting for Brighton especially their current ambition to qualify is still very wide open because looking at their current position the chance to qualify is still very large eventhough now Brighton is still in 3rd place in Group B.

Since Brighton lost their first UEFA Europa League match of the season to  Greek club AEK Athens, they've really improved in their performance in the Europa League as they drew with Marseille in the second game before playing before convincingly beating Ajax in their last match on the competition. They are really determined to have good performance in the Europa League this season as they want the rest of the teams in the competition to know that they didn't just qualify to play in the competition by chance. I think can as well progress to the knockout stages of the competition if they continue to get good results

I don't think there is a team capable of beating Liverpool in the Uefa Cup this season, I would like them to play a Champions League team or Bayer Leverkusen in the final, it would be a match worthy of the final. Even Liverpool's reserves can play a great team game. The new signings are also of great quality. You have to congratulate the scouting team. Klopp gave Gravenberch a bit of freedom. The kid didn't pass the ball in many positions and played directly to the goal. Good move to boost the confidence of the substitutes.
