So we stay up late on Tuesday and it kicks off in the wee hours of Wednesday.

It’s the sort of kick off time I’ve got wrong before now lol

My son said to me yesterday that the game is on Wednesday I said yeah tomorrow night. He couldn't get his head around it..

Just giving Celtic a chance.:-)

Our current strongest/most experienced side we could field for this would be something like

Ederson
Rico
Mbete
Doyle
JWE
Phillips
Perrone
McAtee
Bobb
Grealish
Haaland

Will Pep go with the best he can field from the start to try and get some rhythm into the few first teamers we have or will he try and balance it out to make 2 fairly even sides who get 45 each? I suspect with it being the first game it's more likely to be 2 mixed sides and a slightly stronger starting 11 against milan.

Still studying the kids' positions ;)

be willing to offer the 11th name on the sheet - but only
if you tell me the shirt numbers of Doyle, Mfuni and Fatah first.
