Napoli (h) pre-match thread

[Jazzcat]

Feeling a bit jittery right now. I hope KDB takes the game by the scruff of the neck again and shows these wannabe mafiosi what's what.

A strong 3-1 win I think..... I'm of the opinion that this attack can score at will when at full tilt, however it will also be the first time the defence will be tested by such a strong attack...

The beauty is that Napoli won't come to sit back...

TPE pal,Northern running on time.

Manchester airport train just turned up so looking ok. Next one cancelled so glad I got on this one.

Desperate for a win, main reason is that I want to be certain of qualifying before we go Ukraine with a visit to the swamp 3 days later.
Bit nervous and I put us down to lose largely out of superstition though.

Going to be tough this, 2-1

4-2 after being behind

 

[bluegonads]

anyone going to sing "Allan is superman" if Napoli's Allan comes on?

It would be amazing to beat them convincingly and to get a clean sheet today. It really would announce our presence to the rest of CL.
Big game needed by the defence tonight, it will be their toughest test yet.

Just finishing my home baked Greggs chicken bake then jump on my bike and off to the match. I won't be booing, I'm over that.

I’ll be back in Manchester for the Soton match and this is exactly why I was telling my missus—who is Swiss, so of course trusts train schedules like they were given to her by Nelson Mandela’s exhalted ghost—we have to go take the new campus tour before the match (just so we’re there well ahead of kickoff).

Wouldn't you rather have a Holland's pud, chips and onion gravy from Tony's? It's a pre-match ritual for me and my mates. Missing it tonight as stuck in my hotel in London.

This should be a real test. Let's see how we go against a team with an even better league record than we have this season. Expecting Napoli to be a tough hurdle to get past and think it might be a close 2-1 to us. Really unsure if we should start Jesus or Sergio - don't think we'll start with both. Should be a cracking game.

Third time in a row that must be a Pep record.

Piss poor, shipped two goals to Stoke at home over the weekend.

It struggles going forward. Bit one dimensional.
