Anyone that thinks Athletico are going to o for it clearly don't know Simeone. he will kept them sat in until 80 mins before going for it. We just need to keep moving them round come then they be tired and we pick them off when he throws the kitchen sink at it.

Ederson
Walker Stones Laporte Ake
Rodri Bernardo Gundogan
Mahrez Sterling Foden

Atletico won't charge their approach and we just need to be patient, don't make any defensive errors and pick our moments. Very important our players don't react to the dark arts they will employ.

Atletico will be ecstatic if de Bruyne doesn’t start

 

[chickaroon]

Walker was solid all match today am glad he's back for Wednesday night. CTID

He switched off for Mane's gial.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

0-3, jobs a good’n

Mahrez repent

 

[mancity1]

He switched off for Mane's gial.

To be fair it was an precision pass and yes he might have lunged but probably would have fouled Mane inside the box.

I thought the first goal was more preventable.

 

[Blue Smarties]

Batons out already

He switched off for Mane's gial.

Always a pleasure when Shabba Ranks posts on Bluemoon.

 

[Carmelo]

Tomorrow I will be among all you in Madrid, coming from Barcelona.

Don't hesitate trying el bocadillo de calamares (squid sandwich), very typical in Madrid !

 

[cibaman]

Any update on Dias? I see that he is out but when is he expected back in training?

Yesterday

Don't think Kyle saw Mane's run, he actually came from behind and then across him. Eddie should have saved the first goal.

I dont think Ederson had enough time,it was too close to goal,and he was having to move across the six yard box.
I thought Silva was more at fault with the shit clearing header.

Shabba!

If Atletico had any other name I wouldn't even be worried.

All we need to do is treat this tie with the upmost respect, which I see no reason we won't.

I suspect Atletico may try and stay solid and 'switch on' at predesignated times to try and catch us out with a burst of tempo. As long as we keep our wits in these moments I think we'll keep things under wraps.

 

[Didsbury Dave]

What was the allocation given for this

I think about 3500
