Think we already have an idea on what's going to happen. They will sit deep and probably hit us counter 3 or 4 times scoring at least twice. We will dominate the game but struggle to create chances I'd be more for a disciplined performance don't commit to many forward and leave is exposed against there very fast forwards. Take the draw if need be and finish the job at home.

Been thinking about how our game goes to pieces for about five minutes when we concede. It's happened several times in recent seasons, in games we were completely controlling. And with disastrous results. It really shouldn't be happening, with players as experienced as ours.

Yes, the thing is when we concede and concede more in quick succession. happened in many of our CL exits. Spurs tie, Monaco tie, Lyon one off game, Real last year both games.

even derby after Rashford/Fernandes sick offside goal we just let in another one quickly after.

these mentality/panic issues need to go away before we win our first CL.

I have had this feeling since a while that we will get the CL this year and not win the PL.

It's better not to put too much stock on winning the CL. Get a bit of consistency and we can run Arsenal down.

The task of winning the CL looks less complicated than winning the PL this year. It's still huge tasks.

got vibes of Monaco this tie. can easily see Leipzig bagging 3 or 4 across the two legs. Will be up a high scoring one i reckon

See zero chance of Phillips starting this game indeed I will be amazed if he gets anywhere near the pitch.
