I am sure Akanji will start if fit. Probably our 2nd fastest and most consistent defender. I would guess that Dias misses out if Walker is fit enough to play.

Yeah he was lightening at the Bernabeu...

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Akanji
Gvardiol
Rodri
KDB
Foden
Bernardo
Grealish

I thought Stones was fine? ffs

There’s a part of me that thinks Perez will sack Ancelotti if they get knocked out by us again.

Hence his comments ahead of the match.

Stones injured again ? if so I can't blame Southgate anymore, the guy is just made of glass.

I thought Stones was fine? ffs

He looked like he was wading through treacle at times in the first leg sadly.

great starting eleven. I thought Pep might be tempted to start Kovacic alongside Rodri but I’m guessing that’s where Bernie will be.

Didnt think Stones would be ready. Mean Akanji stepping in to midfield which is a down grade. Good to see Kyle fit. Should be high scoring game.

Expect Foden on the right? Bernardo will be alonside Rodri i imagine

Pushing into midfield Akanji is not a good Akanji

Told anyone and everyone in the summer at work, if we win 1 trophy this season after winning the proper Treble last year I'd be made up.
I still stick to this, but I'm confident tonight we're going into the semi's of this one again

Thor has to be much stronger against rudiger or whatever the thug is called , didnt win any dual against him last game so it was a waste of time him playing really ,we didnt buy him to make space for others after all. We will have kev this time so he should get better service

Feeling good

COME ON BLUEBOYS

The trouble is kaz that wanker Rudiger will be given free rein to kick, push, pinch or what ever and get away with it. If Erling reacts he’ll get a straight red I can almost guarantee it.
