Spurs - CL 2nd Leg - Pre Match Thread

Season defining this week

I think we've been playing within ourselves for the last few games but it's crunch time now and I think we're going to turn it up a few notches and show people that we are far superior team than people realise.

Thats the right attitude, and one that Pep will be building away from the prying media

I'd take going out if we then win the title and the FA Cup,we played the first game all wrong imo

I thought the same but Pep seems pretty confident and I’m sure the players will be too.

The next Jack Reacher book (later this year) is called Blue Moon.... I'm looking for anything positive as I'm a pessimistic fucker.

Don't be surprised to see Delph at left back again and some other bizarre starters like Mahrez, Otamendi, Danilo etc. Nothing would surprise me after that first leg.

I don't think he will make wholesale changes.

I think the mainstays like Ederson, Walker, Laporte, Fernandinho, D Silva, B Silva, De Bruyne, Sterling, Sane, Aguero, etc., will start virtually every game now with a bit of rotation here and there.

I can't see Delph starting another game this season but other than that, whether it's Danilo, Mendy, Otamendi, Kompany, Stones, Gundogan, Mahrez or Jesus coming in to the team, they are all top quality options to call upon and won't let us down. We have an incredible squad.

Yep - you and I had similar thoughts on the first game I think. Still, Pep's a genius and I am not, so here's hoping.

I'll probably get flamed for this but I think we're going out. I think we'll completely dominate them for 95 minutes and probably score a couple of goals. But I think they'll get one as well and I don't think we'll get 3.

It’s your opinion ,based on nothing but negative paranoia

 

[SWP's back]

The norm here when playing a team back to back, is that if you beat them in the first game they will try even harder in the following game.

We are going to have to be totally at our best for these next 2 against spurs, and then throw in the derby at the swamp

So that means we will try harder on Wednesday?

We just have to be on our ‘A’ game at the weekend imo, especially if we win or turn them over easily on Wednesday.

Pooooo weeeee only 842tickets remaining for Wednesday. Can we sell them all and keep me out of a bloody job counting ???.....
