Pulling out all the stops it seems.

Real will be pushed to attack by their crowd , they will not settle for watching our team dominating the ball and this will be there downfall , we are lethal when in transition and we have the pace and a world class striker who thrives on the counter attack , we have been profligate with our finishing over the season but tomorrow there is no room for error , Haaland at his lethal best , KDB finding the right pass and Phil & Jack tormenting their defenders, why should we settle for a draw ? It wouldnt surprise me if we tore them to pieces again.

Is that a wind up?

It's a cracker!

It's a cracker!

Fucking doubt Carson would be sober enough to play a game of football

That’s woke me up and got the juices flowing

Just be clinical City with the chances that come our way.

No doubt they will fly out the traps in hopes of killing the game in the this first leg.

I've changed my team from the other day! With Grealish playing two 90mins games after coming back from injury I feel he won't start, also Kdb just had 90mins fell he won't start!

This is has good defence and gives Madrid something to think about!

_________Ortega

Lewis__Stones_Dias_Akanji

______Rodri__Kocacic

Silva_____Foden___Doku

______Haaland

Grealish will certainly start. These are the games he was bought for.

 

[schfc6]

Ederson

Lewis Stones Diaz Akanji

KDB Rodri Silva

Foden Haaland Grealish

I think it would be that front 6 if we had a fully fit back 4. I’ve a feeling Kovacic will play where you have Kev.

They will know they will get twatted at The Etihad again. Therefore they will have to try and get a 2 or 3 goal lead from the 1st leg. Pep will make us hard to beat and I suspect would settle for a draw or 1 goal defeat
