Please - does anyone know of a pub in the Dewsbury area, possibly Wakefield or Leeds (South) that has: big tellies, BT Sport and is family friendly, for tomorrows match?

Thanks

Can absolutely guarantee we go to Atleti and put in an even more dominant performance,
Atletico do not keep the ball, they get their set piece goal (or penalty in last nights case), and sit back and soak up the pressure

Chelsea are getting plaudits, perhaps rightly so, for controlling the pace of the game against a team who are happy to have 24% possession in a champions league final

Took two fantastic goals from Chelsea mind, and we obviously have to be wary of their undeniable quality with the ball and on the break, but I would not be worried of the Chelsea who Arsenal stood firm against 2 weeks ago
I fancy us and we certainly owe them a beating

I think it has been in Peps mind after the way he set us up perfectly agains Chelsea twice last year only to lose due to the tools he had available not quite being good enough to beat them this year HIS way
Would not be surprised is Gundogan starts and he goes to make a statement by slapping them around properly with the ball at our feet

Bit harsh calling them tools mate?
 
Anyone else think he will not play Jesus tomorrow and have a false 9?
Pack the midfield to support the defence - they are going to attack our left side
 
-------------------Ederson------------------------
Walker-----Stones----Otamendi-----Delph
---------------Fernandinho------------------------
--------De bruyne-------D. Silva------------------
Sterling-----------Jesus-------------Sane---------

Would like to see Gundogan start instead of Silva as David will likely start both matches for Spain and Gundogan hasn't been called up but I think Pep will start David.
Bernardo to get subbed on.
Diaz makes bench.

Chelsea played in Spain on Wednesday, we played at home on Tuesday. They had the tougher game and had to come back to win in the last minute meaning they spent more energy both physically and mentally.

I'm particularly interested to see who Conte will start. Think he will go with Azpilicueta, Rudiger, and Christensen (hopefully Cahill instead). While Morata has played a lot and Hazard is just coming back from injury I think Conte will start them both given the magnitude of this match. Apparently Morata was seen limping off last match but Conte today confirmed he is fit and in contention to start.

I would take a draw but think we'll win 2-1. Our front 3 are very deadly and have all improved since the last time they started together. All 3 are eager to impress. They are interchangeable and the switching will cause Chelsea problems.

Can't wait for tomorrow.
