Champions League Final | Pre-Match Thread

Can only be a max of 10k at Etihad as that what the gov Covid restrictions would be and then 1,250 at minihad, (10k or 25% of stadium capacity)

Yes but that's for 17th-23rd May ... by 29th however if those two games go well, the govt. might allow more ... here's hoping!

Experience and class will shine through.

This is City's time.

They will be playing the real City team this time around and not the one that played at Wembley in the SF.
Still going to be a tough game but I think we have to much for them all over the pitch.

We should have had too much for a lot of teams we have been beaten off in all fairness, non more so than is this competition.

Even worse that we play them Saturday tbh

10-20K at the Etihad and another 5-8K at the Minihad?

With another 200k crammed into the York City stadium.

Could be a back 5 for Chelsea against a team with no forwards!

Quite possibly, but we’ll win this in midfield imo, does he go with Fernandinho? Or is that null and void if pep preempts said set up.... fuck it, Eddie to score a screamer (:

Who would get in City’s staring line up,
Kante, Mount and maybe Werner?

Wow, just how often does it seem to happen where teams play each other in cup and league within a few days of each other - or am I imagining that?!

If we win at the weekend, they can't play a weakened team against Arsenal 3 days before the FA cup final for fear of slipping out of the top 4. It could be a disaster for them. Here's hoping. We only need win 2 games in all that time, Saturday and Istanbul. We should be far fresher than them by the time the CL final kicks off

same team that started PSG

Who would get in City’s staring line up,
Kanye, Mount and maybe Werner?

Werner? Surely taking the piss, and Kante would look like Jamie pollock in our set up!

People thought we'd struggle against psg and we literally broke them mentally, Chelsea won't be easy but we have what it takes to beat them as well.
