The Europa League includes big English and German names which makes this year all the more promising. Van Gaal will have to prove his mettle after being forced to bow out of the Champions League and honestly given this year’s campaign and with the tactics that the German exercises, it seems highly unlikely! If you think the Europa league cant get exciting, well you have a second thing coming as the new Liverpool manager might be put up against his former team and we will surely see fireworks!
So stay tuned!
