We need to win this one, puts us on 9 points with CSKA staying on 3 meaning unless they beat Bayern and we get beat by Plzen at home in the next games that we are qualified!! We need a decent team to see this one off so that we aren't messing about when we go to Munich.
 
CSKA away was a hard game, don't think that win should be patronized, not 100% sure Mancini would have gotten it. Not meaning to cause any fights or arguments. Didn't beat Ajax away after all, a team Celtic recently cruised past.

Mancini? Arguments? Surely not ;-)
 
I'm thinking too soon to bring Hart back?

Not sure about the injuries to Garcia and Jovetic. Assuming they are out. Close call on the full back positons

If we win on Tuesday the only team that can beat us to 2nd is plzen because our head to head would be better than cska's, and let's be honest that's not going to happen.

Most important game so far this season.

Win this and:

1. The hoodoo is gone and we are through for the 1st time.

2. We can rest our main lads for the remaining 2 games.

3. The confidence gained and mental stress avoided by getting through will be a huge boost to MP and the players which should rub off in performances.,

4. The Spanish duo will feel vindicated in their decisions, approach and transfer dealings.

Must win.
It is important, but if we qualify it doesn't vindicate anything. This group is the easiest group we have had.

Still got to beat what's put in front of us mate.

There's is also no evidence that RM would've steered us through this group.

I'd say that vindicates.

Gala are doing Ok in their group. If a manager can do well domestically he has the skills to do well in Europe.
 
No point trying to work out whether it would have been different under Mancini. The fact is this will be a bloody hard game and although we won in Moscow they will be out for revenge so in many respects we will have to work harder than before. As everyone says win this and we are almost certainly through bar dotting the i s and crossing the t s. No pissing about go for the throat and then we can relax a bit if we beat them.
 
Just hope all you that sit in the south stand and sections around the away fans have a safe evening. Expecting a heavy police presence and also not expecting the cska fans to be overly well behaved. I'm attending but thankfully won't be anywhere near them

Stay safe blues
