Europa League – Top six players to look out for in the round of sixteen - Part 2
After elaborating on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giuseppe-Rossi-c15027 in the previous part of this article, it is now time to highlight the remaining three players on this list of top six players to watch out for in the Europa League round of 16.
Carlos Tevez
Manchester City’s captain has been a bit subdued in the Europa League as compared to his domestic form for the blue half of Manchester. Roberto Mancini’s talismanic forward has netted 18 goals and contributed five assists in the English Premier League. Despite
playing a total of number of five matches in Europe’s secondary competition in the 2010-2011 season, he has yet to open his account for Manchester City in the Europa League. Tevez’s influence on Manchester City as a whole cannot be underestimated. Not only
does the striker lead them from the front, his ability to score crucial goals means that he is a dangerous operator in opposition’s penalty area. Tevez has already shown that he is well and capable of performing in European football due to his previous UEFA
Champions League triumph with Manchester United. Now all that is left for the Argentinean to do is to take City to their first Europa League win. The Argentinean striker will be the one to watch out for as City take the field against Dynamo Kiev on 10th
of March, 2011 in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032.
Fabio Coentrao
Coentrao is by no means a house hold name in European football yet, but his form for Benfica in the 2010-2011 season has been impressive to say the least. Already on the transfer radar of big European names such as Manchester United and Real Madrid, Portugal’s
left back is keen to succeed in his audition in the Europa League. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Coentrao has the ability to play as a left wing back and as a left winger as well, his versatility allows Benfica to benefit from his tremendous pace and technique down the left hand
side of their attack. In the 2010-2011 season, Coentrao has already scored two goals in six matches for the Benfica in all European competitions. As Benfica prepares to host Paris Saint Germain in the round of sixteen of the Europa League, Coentrao is destined
to play a massive role for the Diabos Vermelhos in their charge for the quarter-final of the competition in question.
Andy Carroll
Liverpool’s January transfer window signing, Carroll became the most expensive Englishman in the history of the English Premier League when Liverpool paid a sum of 35 million pounds to Newcastle United in the dying stages of the winter transfer window. Since
his arrival at Liverpool, Carroll has only played once due to his thigh injury. This appearance came against Manchester United on the past weekend, but now the ex-Newcastle forward must make his mark on Liverpool’s Europa League campaign. After recovering
fully from his thigh strain, Andy is a favourite to start for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 when they visit Braga on Thursday night. Carroll has already showcased his goal scoring form in the Premier league with his previous employers, Newcastle United as he netted 11 goals in
19 appearances for the Magpies. Nonetheless, the Europa League is a totally different kettle of fish. It will be interesting to see how the 22 year old performs tonight and whether or not he will be able to get a crucial away goal for Liverpool during their
trip to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
