Sporting CP (H) - CL Last 16 - Wed 9th March, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Bill]

Surely we’re not still shocked when Pep goes strong?

except in finals.

 

[Craig]

So play a weak team that gets beat , how is that good for young players.

Not really arsed as long as Foden, Stones or Laporte don’t get injured. Although I’d take a wild guess playing would do them more good than watching the only first team game they had a realistic chance of starting in during the next 6 months

 

[big gaz]

More Tenalady usage tonight.

Just buy tight rubber pants Oakie, you'll be fine ;-)

PSG and Réal Madrid are welcome to camelgob, McPointalot and Michael boring Owen!

Bernie, Foden, Laporte and Stones should be nowhere near that starting 11. Really why just why take any chances, we cant afford any injuries on key players now. Ferna and a youngster could have handled the center back positions and IF we had gone 3 down we could have subbed in the grown-ups.

To the 13 (so far) that have voted we will lose .... sniff, sniff.

These lads just want to play football, no hiding away like other clubs.

Probably a few who voted on the assumption the kids would be playing to be fair
