Not sure, never heard any of them.
The strongest opponent in my opinion exists in our own squad I think...making Dier look like van dijk
Technically Ludograts have a higher co-efficient and were in pot 2 versus 3 for LASK. I am not sure there is much between them but I am far from an expert on the Bulgarian and Austrian Leagues so going off of historical results for teams from that League.
LASK seem to be a team that might be a little better than their place based on comments from a journalist that covers Austria and their performance last season in the Europa League but honestly there isn't a team in our group that poses much of a threat unless we take it way to easy.
I know it sounds cliche but really the biggest obstacle to us winning this group in a walk is us. Our "B" team is the strongest team out of any of the teams in this group and so long as we take the games serious we should win the group comfortably with a squad based around guys like Vinicius, Lamela, Winks, Davies, Hart and then whichever choice of Doherty/Aurier, Bergwijn/Moura, the CB's and Sissoko/Lo Celso.
Ludogorets are ranked 51 with a coefficient of 26
Anderlecht are ranked 57 with a coefficient of 36
LASK ranked <500 in 2016 have jumpers up to 80 last year with a coefficient of 14
We are ranked 13 with a coefficient of 85

Lol. Byeeeeee
The only delli you have seen is the one you get your lunch from!
What??????? That's outrageous!!!
Nigel's been binned?????
Didn't see that coming....
We are ranked 12, Ludogorets are 50, LASK are 80 and Antwerp are 160.
I wouldn't pay much attention to it though, we are ranked below Woolwich, and Man City are ranked above Liverpool. I don't know how they work it out.

Hopefully winks starts and runs himself ragged so hes nowhere near the bench for the weekend.
I think they're the weakest and Antwerp and Ludogorets are probably on par
LASK - League 2
Antwerp / Ludogorets - upper table League 1
Give our second string a chance to impress in this, if they dont win this group game its not the end of the word, it just means we will have to go stronger in the other games, but lets at least give them a chance

Bale , Kane and Son on the bench maybe to give them something to think about?

Davies and Bale to start
Pray for his immortal soul

Play Davies as the LCB maybe, surely he cant be any worse than what we have currently and if he is any good he can start there vs Burnely?
CCV’s on loan at Bournemouth, mate
For the centre backs, I think we’ll need at least 1 experienced head there, either Toby or Dier, possibly Davies (though more likely to start at LB, unless Jose wants more consecutive minutes for Reguilon to get him up to speed).

Nah. Get the group won early as possible then we can think about fully resting and rotating.
The last couple fixtures of the group are just before the manic Christmas period so it would make more sense to have everything done and dusted by then.
We also have a Carabao cup quarter final 3 days before Christmas which I'm sure we'd all like us to go on and win.
I'd like us to go out and win this one comfortably. I think we need to get a decent result to get over the West Ham draw. I think it's also in our best interests to get the group won early so that we can rest players later on which we've got other important fixtures to worry about.
I'm not sure on the best line up though in defence particularly. Part of me wants Sanchez playing so that he can regain some confidence after the own goal and another part of me would like to see Rodon get going.
