Champions League Final | Pre-Match Thread

Yes. Trained yesterday. How fit, is another matter.

Best case scenario is probably him playing on 1 leg. Kovacic and Jorginho have been a very good pair when Kante was injured before.

I hope they risk him at 90%. He's obviously a great player on his day but he'll struggle against us if he's not fully fit.

Possibly, although Kovacic has also had injury issues of late.

He also struggled when we ripped them apart at Stamford Bridge?

Setting off at 2pm today for the airport, I think.

It will start to feel very real when we get to see the pictures of Pep and the players on the plane. Absolutely gutted I missed out on a ticket on Tuesday. Seeing my mates all taking about having their tests done today on WhatsApp isn’t helping!

Kind of feels like the quiet before the storm.

I feel strangely calm at the moment. The nerves haven't kicked in yet.

Thank fuck we played weakened teams in the last two Chelsea games to keep Tuchel guessing. There's no way he'll be able to tell what XI we'll play now.

That's a funny comment. I think everybody at this point, can pinpoint the Man City starting 11 that would be starting the final. You guys have a drop in quality when it comes to attacking players on the bench. That's not to mention that Chelsea pretty much played their weakened teams the last 2 times we beat you. The fact that Ziyech and Alonso (the two players who scored winners against you) are likely not to start the final, goes to tell you a lot about this Chelsea team. We have a bigger room for change in our starting 11.

Are we there yet????

Fuckinhell all of a sudden i am feeling giddy & nervous ,bollocks to even discuss penaltys that would give me a panic attack ha!ha!.
Think the players will be up for this bigtime & leave nothing in the dressing room .
Who would of thought all those years ago when we were crap that one day we would be in a champions league final ?
Two results in my head ,a realistic 2-1 but for some reason dreamt 4-1 to city & cant get that out of my head .
Off to the docs for some medication lol!
All the best to the mcfc fans going to the final, be safe ,enjoy the game & sing your hearts out for the lads !
Come on City do us proud !

that is rewriting the last two games and we have loads of attackers on the bench
