Fucking right up for this.
Remember being at reading away midweek and getting beat 4-0, who could have dreamed we would be in such a big game as this with a decent chance of getting through!
Just close your eyes, picture Alan ball or Frank Clarke then realise we have pep running our team. I bet you smile
 
Been trying to find a webcam of where you lot over there are to watch, managed it in Porto but no joy with Plaza Mayor sadly.

I’m not sure about Grealish starting tonight.

In the EFL Cup final a couple of years ago, Fernandinho and Walker spent the entire game shithousing him, and he spent most of his time punching and slapping the floor and moaning at the ref. And he did next to nothing with the ball as we affected his game too much.

I don’t think he’s been here long enough to trust that he won’t get wound up by Atléti and it affect his game tonight. Not from the start anyway.

I’d definitely bring him on though, similar to last week.

I'm seeing far to much confidence from City fans on social media about this match.

Comments about "how we can beat Real Madrid" and "how well be facing the scouse cocks in the FINAL!!"

Look!! I'm warning you nobs now!! DO NOT SMITE AND POKE FUN AT THE FOOTBALLING GODS!!

For your sins I'm off to dance naked around a small fire on cronkeyshaw Common, whilst praying and paying hommage to the Gods of Football, hopefully undoing this curse you feckers have put on tonight's game, with you over confident manner.....

***I'm adding a "winking emoji" so none of the BM perverts spend a wasted afternoon looking for a naked bloke dancing around a fire...You know who you are....Karen!!

Edit, l cant add an winking emoji because Ric (our leader) is way too fookin tight.....Its probably because he's paying to much to those thundercunt hammer banning mods....

Anyways hope I haven't offended anyone?

;^)

Social media, mate. Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and Facebook comment sections are chockablock with the thickest idiots in society.
 
When I listen to Pep, he fills me with pride - his admiration for players, his relentlessness in the way we play, and all of the players understanding of the approach.
 
Hopefully we can get the first goal tonight, just to quieten the crowd. I can see them, if it gets to the final 30 mins and they are behind trying to kick fuck out of us. If we can get 2 ahead then would be the time to bring off Kev before they assault him. I would definitely start Jack as can see a sending off in the making - they have previous and if they go a man down they will lose their heads even more.

Saw a stat saying Atletico have always progressed when they have been 1-0 down in the first leg. There will be a lot of tired legs, but this is a tough game, so I prefer we start our strongest players, get the tie done by half time and then rest for the FA semi-final.

Worth noting that this stat is just Daily Fail BS. They were literally down 1-0 last season in the CL against Chelsea in the first leg and got eliminated... They've been 1-0 down on two other occasions and managed to pull those back, but it's hardly a "stat" worth mentioning or fearing.

Still, not expecting an easy game tonight. They'll do their usual tricks and could get lucky and catch us on the break. I'd love to see Jack start and spend 90 minutes riling them up. If we get one sent off it'll be as good as a goal.
