Real Madrid (A) CL Semi Final 2nd Leg - Wed 4th May, 20:00 (BST) | Pre-Match Thread

[citytill1die84]

Same lineup with minor full back shuffle is fine for me, but my most fear is ..... 'Pep's brand new tactic'!

Nah he'll save that for the final :)

 

[SWPISHOME]

Alaba out. He's their best defender

And he's not even a proper centre half. Says it all. Militao is dog shit he'll be playing alongside Nacho.
We'll tear them apart.

 

[Bald fraud]

Madrid dont worry me. Ref does.

Madrid already announcing their line up

Madrid dont worry me. Ref does.

I'm worried about Zinchenko giving away penalties or stupid fouls right outside our box. He has the habit of getting a little over-excited and making stupid challenges which could cost us very, very dear.

 

[Andouble]

think if it was a Prem game tomorrow Walker wouldn't be risked, but with 5 subs at his disposal I think Pep will take the risk and start him from the off.

 

[Withnail]

Without a doubt City are a better side and we will get chances tomorrow, just a matter of taking them. Great news about Walker and without Alba that Madrid defence looks even more vulnerable.

 

[Ric]

Madrid dont worry me. Ref does.

He reffed us last time we played at the Bernabeu and awarded us a penalty. Also reffed the 2-1 win against PSG at The Etihad this season, and don't recall any issues then?

 

[SWP's back]

Madrid already announcing their line up

Didn’t he send off a Madrid player and award us a penalty in the last game he reffed us in against Real?

 

[hihosilva]

Great news about Walker who will hopefully start & keep Vini Jnr quiet on the night.
More confident than ever now.

Yeah, some on here think all refs have it in for us.

 

[Lavinda Past]

What they really mean is it's what they hope will happen. They're terrified we're going to spoil Liverpool's quadruple.

We are going to spoil it... We'll win the PL.

Tommy Tootle is also saving Chelsea's best performance for the FA Cup final, so that's nice.

I think this will most likely be the starting 11

Pitty we're not playing in Italy then

 

[Withnail]

Refs in the CL are on the whole better than the shower of PL refs.

 

[PragueBlue]

Not totally convinced that Walker will start.

 

[SkyBlueCanuck]

I see us winning the match outright. Only thing I can see stopping us is some form of shenanigans.

 

[bluemonkey71]

Sorry must have missed it. Is there any news on Walker ?
