I want us to win this. I know some want out so we can concentrate on the league but I'm not throwing in the towel just yet. We've signed some new players and whilst Kusanov didn't start too well, his pace and aggression will help in the playoffs and Marmoush just looked like he'll terrorise the opposition. If we can add someone in the middle of the park there's no reason why we couldn't, with a bit of luck, go and win it. The CL isn't always won by the best team and if we manage to get a fully fit squad we'll still be a challenge for anyone - and we can handle the pressure better than most.

It's going to be buzzing and the players will be bang up for it. Shame we haven't got any of our new signings but the players will know what they need to do. The return of Bernardo will make a huge difference, he was back on Saturday and if he plays that way again we'll win.
 
Think Stones and De Bruyne in for Khusanov and Marmoush will be the only changes for this. Looking forward to it, probably the biggest game of the season so far. Brugge are a decent side so it's far from a given that we qualify, but hopefully the Chelsea win will give everyone a lift.

We have a chance, not a great one, of winning the champions league.
Barring a miracle and a total collapse of both liverpool and arsenal, the Premier league title is beyond us.
I think Pep will go all out champions league and FA cup.
I think he will be happy to gradually pick off a few teams around us in the league and get a top 4 place.

I'd take top 4 and an FA Cup for an off season from us. CL would be outstanding but seems unlikely at this point.

Pep will want to win every game from now on - unlikely, but the squad is strengthening again and we look well up for it. While the Premier League is Liverpool's to lose, if we win on Wednesday and inflict some damage on Arsenal at the weekend, the top 3 will be trembling - anything's possible, as Liverpool haven't hit a dodgy patch yet.

Strong end to the season incoming.
 
Top 4 has to be the priority for me. CL would be a real achievement based on the season so far but I think it's unlikely. Not that bothered about the FA Cup but a trophy to add to the bulging cabinet would be good 8-) AND of course a victory against Untied at their place in April !

He'll play Gundo and Kovacic as a pair again and we'll all die a little bit more inside.
 
Let's hope we can bring this home and maybe all that chest bumping, fist pumping, badge kissing over celebratory tubthumping last Wednesday will be like the memory of "attacking ships on fire on the shoulder of orion" and be merely tears in the rain.
