Frank de Boer had a dismal start to the season domestically and in Europe, losing the opener 2-0 to Hapoel Beer-Sheva at San Siro.

He has managed to turn things around in Serie A, but due to FFP limitations is missing several star names in his Europa League squad, such as Joao Mario, Gabigol, Geoffrey Kondogbia and Stevan Jovetic.

Mauro Icardi, Joao Miranda and Ivan Perisic are rested ahead of Sunday’s Serie A showdown with Roma, but Assane Gnoukouri is given his first start in almost two years.

Marcelo Brozovic apologised to the Coach and team this week, but is still not welcomed back into the fold just yet.

The tension is sky high in Prague too, where Coach Zdenek Scasny was sacked after a home defeat in the derby with Slavia.

New boss David Holoubek will not be able to count on Tomas Rosicky, Vacha, Zahustel and Sural.
