Champions League Final | Inter (N) - Sat 10th June 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[SWP's back]

This is a very important game. CL final, treble and all.

this is the sort of insight I come in here for.

There wing backs are rapid

Who are they?

Lots of people were asking for this change before Madrid at home.

In my opinion, there's absolutely no way Pep will leave Bernardo out of this game.

If Foden comes in for anyone it'll be Grealish but I think it's more likely he'll be used as an impact sub.

No changes from the Madrid side for me.

Funny how there's a big complaint around changes in the Champions League every year and now everyone wants to change a winning formula.

They don’t keep the ball well, watching their semis if we are on it they won’t be able to cope, it was hot yesterday and KDB and Rodri suffered hopefully it will be cooler

It wont be cooler in Istanbul, will be much hotter.

However just realised local time will be around 9pm ish? so yep will be cooler

No it won't.

It will be about 2 °C less temperature than yesterday, but more importantly the thermal comfort to human beings would be much less because it will be night and there will be no sun like yesterday. Conditions would be A LOT better heat-wise.

It’s only going to be about 18 degrees come kick off. Istanbul climate isn’t really that different from our climate in England.

Erm I checked and you’re right. Mad.

Players Pep cannot leave out of the starting XI, IMO:

Ederson
Stones
Dias
Rodri
Gundogan
Bernardo
De Bruyne
Haaland

We could mix and match the three other positions and still be ok.

It’s in English but I think it’s mostly Americans

From what I remember of the waiters in the restaurants in the Italian parts of big US cities, certainly on the east coast anyway, they were always Juve, Milan or Inter fans who when you dug a bit knew slightly less than the square root of fuck all about football. Boston was particularly bad for it.
