Incredible that we’ve come this far relying on a group of attacking midfielders and now were about to face off against one of the games best forwards line. Having said that we were able to keep Neymar, Mbappe and Messi quiet so it‘s possible we can deal with the dippers.

But that's because PSG is an unbalanced mess and Neymar, Mbappe and Messi didn't get much of the ball.

And BTW, we lost the first leg. Over the 2 legs they score 3 and we scored 2, so we didn't keep them that quiet.

………….Ederson……….

…………………..Rrodi………….
….Bernardo………….Gundo………..
..Marhez……..KDB……..Foden

wouldn’t mind if Ake in as one of CHs though if he does that

Really looking forward to this and I think we've got a great chance. Liverpool are not as good at the back as everyone would have you believe. We will create chances but so will they.

Ederson
Walker Stones Laporte Cancelo
KDB Rodri Bernardo
Jesus Grealish Foden

This would be my side. High press with pace to cause Liverpool problems. Jesus defensive diligence will be important as Robertson can run up and down the flank all game. Foden running in behind Trent who can clearly be got at.

3-1 I'm going.

The atmosphere inside the stadium will be rocking. You can start soaking it up beforehand too.

This would be my starting 11 as well

I think the comment was re the semi, when we ground them to dust, rather than group stage games (the first of which we were worthy of at least a draw, rather than the 2-0 PSG).

Looks good, though perhaps Gundog for JG...

Jesus suspended? Well, I suppose it is nearly Easter........

The absence of replies to this suggests it was too subtle fir most.

Either that or it wasn't very funny. Or it was sacrilegious, perhaps.

Am I the only City supporter in a foul mood and downright unpleasant thanks to the tension surrounding this coming week? My family will be glad when it's all over, one way or the other.

But he comes to life at Easter so must start at Wembley.
