Just been and bought 6 scarfs and hats from the souvenir shop for my gang kaz. Even got Andy Hinch one as he always seems to get the flu.

You'll need them,i nearly froze just feeding the birds in the garden this morning

Reporting now that Sterling & Jesus both fit and ready for tomorrow.

From where mate ?

Hoping Danilo plays at left back, Zinchenko is promising but his lack of experience would mean he was targeted by Arsenal. He has been caught out in the air frequently and although Danilo hasn’t exactly shone he is taller, more physical and has played major finals before.

Left back (and upfront) is certainly a position where we might see a change during the match.
I would start Zinchenko as he offers more passing quality and IMO more confidence as a character.

Danilo has always a fantastic attitude and workrate when he's put on and could offer more power going forward and some physical defending.

that doesn't say him and gabby are both fit to start

Are any pubs showing the game around Wembley? I remembr reading something that none of them show the game. I guess to stop people doing what I will be doing, going without a ticket, be amongst the atmosphere then watch it in a pub...
Thanks for your help...

At least some source ;-)
So what's yours then? Or is it a secret?

Honestly think Zinchenko will play.
Not much between stones and Laporte so I think he will go for John, laporte still settling in and stones is alright with Nico next to him.
