Europa League final on 07:53 - May 22 with 1096 views | BseaBlue | The first half was comical wasnt it? In an age where teams just endlessly keep the ball, neither team could string two passes together! Probably shouldnt be suprised when you have 16th vs 17th playing each other in a final though! |  | |  |

Such a shame the three promoted clubs have all been so sh1t this season. Just one of us putting those two under pressure and into a relegation scrap would have been brilliant. |  |

Apparently teams keeping the ball is boring now so in that sense it should have been quite entertaining. |  |

Indeed, if that's now the measure of quality and effective football....last night was about as polar opposite as you could get. |  |

Europa League final on 08:29 - May 22 with 926 views | jayessess | To be fair, that the 5th/6th/7th-placed teams and cup winners from across Europe weren't good enough to knock out two of the worst teams in the English top division probably is a great advert for the Prem's strength in depth. |  |

Or, maybe, football is a bit sh*t at the moment? |  |

I was thinking this - but then I thought that fans of Palace, Liverpool, Leeds etc would probably disagree. Without a doubt this season's experience has dulled my enthusiasm for the game, summer break can't come soon enough. |  | |  |
Europa League final on 09:05 - May 22 with 780 views | EuanTown | To be fair there are many points here. Two of the worst teams in the prem this year make the final of a European competition beating higher placed European teams in their respective leagues. The goal which was scrappy at best reflects the teams performances all season and in the game on the night. Uefa must be furious that one of their minor trophy competitions has been degraded so badly. Can Chelsea bring some hope to uefa in another if their minor trophy competition. The falling over of players on both sides reflects where the game is going, with more breaks for free kicks it was a tough game to watch. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Expect UEFA to go back to teams who fail in Champions League, like Man City this season, getting a second chance in knock out stages of European League. |  |

UEFA are just fending off the inevitable time when footie will be playing a glabal league - mostly in China and Saudi with the occasional guest game in the USA. This is why TWTD is so apt an acronym. |  |

Europa League final on 20:38 - May 22 with 262 views | Mark | There are so many teams in the Champions' League that the Europa League has little meaning. Put only champions and cup winners in the Champions' League, and the other top placed teams in the league into the Europa league. Put it back onto free-to-air TV. Football would be more exciting for the fans. I know that won't happen due to money and big teams' fear of losing out. |  | |  |

Leeds are though. Saw an end of season. Game where they won 6-0 and the commentators were drooling over their play. They looked okay but nothing compared to what Ipswich have faced this year. The game in the championship is so slow and disjointed. |  | |  |

Honestly I watched the game last night either to see a borefest, or a goalfest What really really annoyed me most was the lack of actual football quality!!! Watching the in game stats which came up Spurs had completed more passes than Manu x2 times. But the complete gaming of fouls drive me absolutely nuts! At one point I saw a player fall over clutching their head after a slight knock on their foot. As for Fernandes, I've said it before multiple times while a really gifted player, off the ball his play acting and constant moaning right in the face of the ref is infuriating. Focus on playing the bloody game!!! Im surprised I still have a Family after my moaning all the way through the game last night. Prefer to watch the local teenagers knock a ball around. |  | |  |
