Was it Royal Antwerp we beat 5-0 away in Europe back in the halcyon days, Bobby Lee got 3 I think.  Their manager said we were the best side in Europe at the time... how times change

Yep, beat them 10-2 on aggregate (Rob Lee with a hatrick of headers in the first leg). 

 

Went out on away goals against Bilbao in the next round.

It’s a shocker really that we have no proper games until 31st, that’s 21 days!

 

Presumably Rafa wants to give our current players game time to keep up the momentum, and also to give minutes to some fringe players and Slimani.

 

It’s a savvy move.
