BBC don't seem very excited about our final,if it was the rags Sally would be bouncing up and down on Marcus.

You lot do make me chuckle with your pessimism if Pep rotates a bit. Playing well, only Kane, Son and Lloris make it into your second 11. Maybe Bale if you don't want to worry about defending your right flank. Possibly Ndombele if you want to be entertained but you aren't fussed about midfielders tracking runners

We've been awful since December, Kane isn't going to be 100%, Son is off form and Lloris is either a great shot stopper or prone to a mistake.

I'd fully expect a comfortable 3-1 in your favour except I've got a feeling someone (probably Aurier!) will do something stupid and we'll play 75 minutes with 10 men. In which case the only thing stopping a cricket score is if you take it easy with CL in mind.

Enjoy your afternoon. I doubt I will :-)

I was going to say good luck in CL, you deserve, it but then I remembered I want Poch to do well- for him, definitely not for PSG as I never want them to buy their way to CL success. Even in the battle of the oil state football clubs: at least you have got some history and proper fans.

And thanks for walking the league. It's preferable to any of Utd, 'pool or Chelsea. I don't even include Arsenal in that conversation these days!

I've seen splattered hedgehogs at the side of the road with more backbone than some of the posters on here.

Uneasy feeling about this. They always seem to turn up against us and I can't see baldy going balls deep and putting his strongest team out for this and PSG. Hope I'm wrong and we smash the cunts.

why dont you call our best manager ever, by his name.

Don't have a great feeling about this one.

Pre Dortmund I predicted progressing to the CL semis but losing to Chelsea and Spurs ffs. I don’t even remember why I had such a bad feeling. Hopefully the likes of Sterling and Torres can actually step up today, but I’m hardly optimistic.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Zinchy is my pick for lb, always, if i never see mendy again it will be too soon

Could well see Zinchenko start today and Cancelo Wednesday night.
Then again, Haven't a fucking clue who is going to play today.

Thanks - I think?

I think the concern amongst City fans is justified as the drop off to our second string in significant. Sterling, Jesus and Cancelo can be excellent but currently look like they have barely played the game before.

What is the general feeling amongst Spurs fans about Ryan Mason? - if he leads Spurs to a win he becomes the most successful Spurs manager since Ramos! Would there be pressure to give him the job long term?

I guess with him in charge there is more chance of an entertaining match. Hope it is decent without any VAR crap, injuries or shithouse behaviour from any of the players.
