Juventus (A) - Wed 11th Dec, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

[Bluemoonadam]

3-1 win to juve this i think I'm afraid

Except a defeat here and against PSG but home win versus Brugge.

Ideally we wouldn’t have had this fixture before the rags game at weekend

 

[ufo]

3-1 home win.

Is this suppose to be a reverse jinx?

 

[jimharri]

I'm not greedy; I'd pull your arms out of their sockets if you offered me a draw right now. An actual win (don't laugh) would take us to 11 pts, one past the perceived requirement for a top 16 spot. I think a top 8 spot has probably gone at this stage.

Table is looking weird at the moment. Need to get up it asap as there are better teams in the extra knock out round than are currently in the top 8. Do not want to be drawn against the likes of Real or Bayern.
Presumably if you are in the knockout round you can’t then play against a team you’ve already played in the league phase?…which would narrow down the teams we could be drawn against?

I thought Feyenoord was a gimme, particularly on 70 odd mins with a three goal lead.

That’ll teach you……

 

[stonerblue]

Oh sorry, didn't realise being deluded was part of the requirement.

In that case 15-0 City.

You're supposed to support the fucking team, not slag them off.

That's a terrible insult. I've a mind to ban you for that.

 

[wattle]

Top Blue.....

It’s painfully obvious some of our supporters never had to actually SUPPORT a football team before. They literally don’t know what to do or say in a run of form like this. We haven’t become Burton Albion over night. Oh we’ve got to play Walker, Gunda and Lewis. Poor fucking us haha

The world is your oyster, yeah?

 

[blueste41]

In only one of them, the Spurs game, were we put to the sword.

The rags could say the same yet their dog shit and 13th!

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

If any one of our “best” players is playing today I’ll be disappointed. Need to save them for Sunday.

We’re obviously not winning the champions league are we so just sack it all off. We don’t need the extra games.

 

[wattle]

Surely it’s got to be
Eddy
Walker
Dias
Gvardiol
Lewis
Gunda
Grealish
Kev
Haaland
Bernie
Doku

 

[HolisticJim]

Best team out, do what we need to do to get a win and worry about the weekend at the weekend.

It's what we've always done because you can't turn on and off a winning mentality.

I dunno, get a decent draw in the R16/QF and a bit of luck in the semi and who knows. Worse teams that this City team have won it. Just need to be in it. That said, I don't think we should be chasing the top 8 at the expense of the derby.

Lazy and untrue. But if it suits your narrative.

 

[big gaz]

He’s missed the last two games and was back training today. Remarkable recovery from bronchitis if that’s the reason he was out.

We've all lied on a sickie ;-)
