Agree with some of this, but this is not just a play-off imho because any team who can knock RM out is capable of winning the thing.
I hope the players approach this just like they would a semi-final. If you want to win it (I do, although I'd have preferred 5-in-a-row :-)), no round is more important than any other.

This is like a final group game. Win to make the last 16, lose and go out of Europe. That's all it is.

Knocking them out is a huge boost but putting more pressure on this game isn't going to help our cause. That's when mistakes are made or when fatigue reduces our ability to see the game through.

Tell the lads to leave it all out there, shut the crowd out and play to our strengths. Don't worry too much about the occasion.

Even if we don't get the job done, it's a great experience for the likes of Khusanov, Nico, Marmoush, Savinho and Doku and let's them know the levels for next year and beyond.

I'm really positive about our chances. We will respect them but I feel like the team will find a way to get the job done.

Lol, were they seriously trying to delay or stop him from playing just to avoid watching their attackers get pocketed? If that was the plan, it was a weak one because, guess what? Too bad for them—he’s stepping onto that pitch tonight, ready to shut them down! No amount of stalling can save them now. ;)

Well there's only 13 league games left. So, if you're not in shape by now (apart from Ake and maybe Doku) - you're playing. I don't really want to see KDB or Gundogan in this game. Sorry. Legends. But the pace of this game will be too fast.
 
Let's have some of that Elizabethan spirit tonight people!!

We have brought all these new players in ready for this rebuild , I would just like Pep to show it now and make some braver decisions. Phil must start over KDB just do not see it. I even think Grealish will get the nod over Marmoush if Haaland is good to go up top.
 
Let's face it, on current form they're better than us and Bellingham is head and shoulders the world's best central midfield player. They are littered with world class players from goalkeeper to their forwards - and in Vinicius Junior they have a player who was cruelly overlooked for last year's Balon D'oR......and on present form is a shoe in for this year's honour.

Take 1-1 right now and move onto the Dippers game...
