Luton Town (H) | Sat 13th April, 15:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Alvarez
Doku+Nunes
Bob+Rico
Kova

Have you seen the size of those Luton Lads.
The 6 you mention would struggle to beat Ronnie Corbett in a heading duel.
Its Luton we are playing, not Lilliput Town FC.

We need to be very strong at corners and set pieces.
Doughty has great crossing technique from their left

We could do with Kyle and Ake coming back soon, not sure where those guys are in their rehab, I think Rico will play rb as Stones will have to be rested, back 4 will have to be Josko, Dias, Akanji, Lewis. I think Kova will play DM and then Nunes, Doku, Jack, Alvarez and Haaland

Doughty ! I remember him! He looks like a tough bandit...

I see this game being tougher than Madid next week.
I truly believe we will smash Madrid next week but Luton stands out as a potential banana skin for me

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Ederson
Akanji Dias Gvardiol/Stones
Lewis Kovacic
Bernardo Nunes KDB Doku
Haaland

Take Haaland and KDB off for Alvarez and Bobb ASAP. Gvardiol or Stones is a toss up, whichever one needs the rest more can stay on the bench. I'd lean towards resting Stones as I think Gvardiol probably drops out of the lineup for Madrid if Kyle is fit.

I think the fact it's at Wembley is a shame, it's just so fucking bland, easy for fans to get to, i understand that but not the same as winning it in a stadium abroad imo

Did you go to the Ataturk Stadium ??... a converted athletics stadium, in a shithole, in the middle of the countryside, accessed by a one lane road.

Wembley could be more like a home game and if we get there I'll be bang up for it !!

Champions league is the first priority！

Not to me it fuckin isn’t cup competition anything can happen, best side in the country wins the league.

Luton at home is not going to be tougher than Madrid at home. Madrid are a world class side.

Luton, whilst have a decent scoring tally (21 in 16) away from home, they have conceded the most goals away home this season, even more so than Sheffield United.

If the likes of Alvarez, De Bruyne, Doku, Kovacic, Nunes and even Haaland - who I think will play so he can garner confidence - cannot see these off at home we might as well pack up, go home and call the season now.

Of course but there are loads of better stadiums than the one in Turkey.
I understand Wembley is much easier to get to but it's a soulless shithole .
I do understand though that some people will prefer a trip to Wembley, than say, Rome or Berlin
