Aaaaaaaaaaaah, not been this excited about a match for a long time. Most big matches are half excitment/half bricking it, but this sort of feels like the result isn't that important, no-one really expects to win at the Bernabeu, anything we get is a total bonus. I don't have a fear of us failing for this one, can just sit back and enjoy the fact that were playing Real fucking Madrid!

I have a really good feeling about tomorrow. If we do beat Madrid, imagine how good of a kick start that will give to our season as a whole... and with Richards coming back and a few others coming back to full fitness we're only going to get even stronger after that!

It's gonna be hard to fall asleep tonight, and then to wait all day for the match, and then to endure all the adverts in the build up on bloody ITV<br /><br />-- Mon Sep 17, 2012 10:13 pm --<br /><br />

I think 4-2-3-1 would be a mistake against Real Madrid.

4-4-1-1 with defensive wingers and wing backs

2 important points here:

1. I wouldn't have Rodwell anywhere near the starting 11 for this. He is nowhere near experienced enough.

2. I think our secret weapon could well be Garcia's head from set pieces and corners. I think he could eat Ramos & Pepe for breakfast in the air.

a secret weapon is GARCIAS HEAD

With Aguero:

If Serg isn't fit:

Might seem bizarre to include Sinclair, but I think his pace could be useful. I think we will often play on the counter, given how much space Madrid leave at the back when going forward. He will be useful getting back to help out, especially if Ronaldo is on a run.

I think Yaya can cause them problems going forward, so I'd prefer him behind Tevez. We'd have a bench of Dzeko, Aguero, Balotelli, Nasri, Kolarov, Nastasic, Maicon, Milner to choose from!

We could put out 4 or 5 different sides that would be better than most. We really do have a fantastic squad.

If Sinclair starts I will show my arse in Dixon's window.

Nice line up though, but it needs Milner rather than Sinclair.
