Barcelona H CL Pre match thread {merged}

[Bpughh]

everything about this game is distracting me from writing me fooking paper. BUT IM TOO EXCITED.

 

[Bpughh]

first 15-20 minutes of this game will be huge. Hopefully we can stay composed throughout and nerves don't get the best of anyone early. It'd be even better if we started like we have been all season. Seems like we always have one very good chance in the first 5

Okay 'fess up, who else is bricking it? If SSN show Messi walking through Manchester airport, well... let's just say I'm glad I'm wearing dark pants already

Not at all tbh, can't wait.

I was quietly confident until Kun was definitely ruled out. Gutted we can't field our best team.

Can't predict it but I hope we get our tactics spot on, match will be decided by whoever gets their tactics right I think rather than individual brilliance.

I agree it's disappointing we can't play Barca at full strength, but we're looking in a better position that we were when we lost at home to Chelsea with Demichelis in midfield

Hopefully we can stay in the tie, and then get Aguero back for the 2nd leg. His pace and mobility should cause their central defence problems

What if both teams get their tactics right but its a piece of individual brilliane that wins it?

After watching the Chelsea game I thought we were so well organised and we will beat Barca if we play anything like Saturday.
However, as it is Europe I think we must have 3 in midfield so we are not wide open and get hit on the counter as I think we can have more possession than them.
If Fernandinho is fit my team would be
Hart,
Zab, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy,
Garcia, Fernandinho
Nasri, Ya Ya, Silva
Negrado.

If Fernandinho isnt fit, then Kolarov or Jovetic with Ya Ya at the side of Garcia.
