Real Madrid (A) CL Semi Final 2nd Leg - Wed 4th May, 20:00 (BST) | Pre-Match Thread

I’m quite relaxed too.
Not necessarily that I think we’ll win. I just don’t feel nervous about losing.
If it happens I’ll just take it and wait for next season. We’ve been almost great so far this season, but not quite.
Now if it all goes well we may well peak to greatness yet, this season.
Far more concerned that we maintain our current run in the league. Losing that would upset me more.

Perfectly summed up my thoughts on this too. Not nervous at all.

its time to put the losses in Pep era in CL behind us like the Pool, Monaco, Spurs, Lyon, Chelsea games.
This Real side imo is stronger than all of those teams in those years maybe apart from Tuchel's Chelsea in the last 3 months of last season. they did beat Real in the semis but this years Real is a level above their last year team, even La Liga table shows that.

we got very close to winning it last year, but we were second best in the final with not much chances created and occasion got to us while Pep's tactical trick did help Chelsea more than us.

We need to trust our game tonight, do what we do best, let them worry about us rather than the other way around. they know they have to defend much better than last week, as they cannot afford giving away chances same way. (unless we convert them in an even worse rate)

80K fans, probably the ref too will be against us, but we arent only playing vs Real, we play against all the haters. their hate needs to motivate us.

Real will not go out without a fight here. but we need to raise our games and the first 25 mins at the Etihad was exactly that, we could not go up 3-0 which was a crucial mistake, but here we go again, and imagine if we go 2-0 up again in 15 mins.

just up the tempo and raise our game, when if not now...

get to the final and rip that scouser maffia apart.

If you threw in a guaranteed title win it would be tempting

Cityitus is very much alive in this seasons campaign. When we lift the cup is because we have beaten the top teams and done it the hard but right way. Fuck everyone we don't need help from no one.
