Sly sports at their work.

Is David Gill a director at Sky ?

Sly sports at their work.

It's not an official account. It's a troll.

I'm not suggesting Kiev will be a pushover but I'd really like to see Silva and Aguero rested. We need them on top of their game for Sunday and then they'll both be playing twice during the international week, cannot afford to have them break down and miss the run-in. Surely we would have enough without them to get through??

They're not going on international duty they are playing in behind closed doors games at our training ground during the international break.

That's good to hear.

I'd definitely leave Kun and David on the bench. Navas and Sterling wide with Yaya and the Ferns in the middle.

Would be good to see young Ian start but, well, you know what Pellers will do. #sigh

If you think he's going to rest players for this game, think again. The money involved in the Champions League is utterly ridiculous. For each win a club get's paid 1m Euros, for each draw it's half that and nothing for a loss.

If we win tomorrow we would have earned 1 million from the win and another 5/6 million Euros in prize money for making it into the quarter finals. winning tomorrow is worth millions to the club, they won't risk that.

first clean sheet in a shit ton of CL games im predicting. I think we missed Toure on Saturday, so he could be a welcome return. 2-0

 

[St.Pauli support]

Control the match, no end product needed. Simple. Easiest game of the year. Should be.
Having said that it will be completely different.

I thought this one was the relaxing game between two fired up PL games. But no.
The team did not yet learn to control a match and put a shift in when needed. Still shaking my head about last Sat.

Waiting for the draw on Friday.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

They will come at us and try and press like Liverpool, etc. We need to soak it up, use the ball intelligently and pick them off.

Counter-attacking, quick football on the break is what's required.
