Marseille (H) - CL | Pre-Match Thread

[FantasyIreland]

I’m pretty relaxed whoever he plays. We should have enough irrespective of the team he picks as long as we are clinical with chances and we concentrate hard round the breakdown. Have been impressed the last few games, we have given little away and Fulham in particular are not a bad team.

Yeah,still at 80% for me but we look like we have rediscovered our mojo.

No harm lads but both Burnley and Fulham are near the bottom for a reason,we are expected to beat these teams and although we played well against Burnley and for the majority against Fulham I don’t think we are anywhere near what we are used too,tomorrows game is a dead rubber but be interesting to see tonight’s lineup in the efl trophy as an indication if some might be playing or on bench ..

Of the youth lads yet to break through into the 1st team, I expect Palmer to be the most likely to start.

Hoping to see Ake back in the starting 11 along with a couple of young kids such as Palmer and Doyle.

THB won't be playing as he is with the u21's tonight.

Palmer, Doyle and Braaf are not involved in the Tranmere game so presumably they are with the senior squad.

I think I quite fancy Doyle to start, alongside Fernandinho.

Doyle and Palmer do seem higher up in Pep's thoughts than THB, but that's just me speculating. I don't know about Braaf as he's been unavailable for a while as of late.

 

[Delphinho]

Braaf is not eligible and also injured at the moment. Doyle and Palmer to start, Nmecha and Bernabe on the bench would be my guess

 

[bert38]

would love to see both Doyle and Palmer start

Same here. I guess Doyle is the more senior of the two so more likely to get the nod, but I love watching Palmer play. Such a natural, graceful footballer.

 

[Parisian]

3 or 4 goals please.

 

[Cityinmud]

3 or 4 goals please.

Lol

French football appears to be as free fall as broadcasters about to pull out all TV sponsorships worth 2.8 billion

Good shout.

But no Delap?

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Good shout.

Hmmmmm

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Scrutinising the way it's panning out in the tables. There are some good second-placed teams there, but nothing that we should not be capable of handling. It's a good thing that Juventus and Dortmund top their groups.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Good shout.

This became really fucking boring and dim witted a long fucking time ago

Fucking did fucking it ?

Btw, dimwitted is one fucking word.

Ok but can we agree that “you fucking boring tit“ is 4, and your age is 12?

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Just play as many kids as possible tonight and save reguars for Saturday. Aguero to start if he's passed fit.
