Could be a difficult game but we are in great form. A narrow 2-1 win for the Blues.

Is there a chance Swansea may play a weakened side for this given the position they are in. Wouldn’t surprise me.

 

[BringBackSwales]

I believe so.
One of the mods dropped a few clues that we wouldn't be seeing him again.

Ever? Life is so good at the moment!

Everyone's got their own opinion on Garcia which is fair. Last season I was happy enough for us to play Sane knowing he was going to Bayern, but that was because Sane is an unbelievably talented player. I honestly don't think Garcia is good enough. I don't think he's physical enough to make it as a top CB in England. He's not bad on the ball, but out of possession, he's like a headless chicken. He's leaving at the end of the season anyway, so why risk our success for a player who's offering nothing?

I trust in Peps judgement and if he plays him against Swansea I am sure he will do his best for the club on the pitch.

if Barcelona want him he can't be dud they believe he will improve their team.

Going to be a tough tie this. We saw that a couple of years back and like us they are on good form.

Show them the respect that that’s due. They’re 3rd in the table and look really good for promotion. This WILL NOT be the easy ride that too many are expecting. I’m sure Pep will go full strength to snuff out the danger, and hopefully get a goal or two and THEN make some changes.
Underestimate these at our peril. No point looking back and saying we should have gone with a stronger initial line up AFTER the game is lost.

I'm sure they are on a long unbeaten run as well. They will have every confidence.
