Urawa Red Diamonds (N) | CWC Semi-Final | Pre-Match Thread

Realistically only Palmerias should give us a game if they win the Copa Libertadores. They are in the semi finals vs Boca Juniors.

I watched the olympias v palmerias game last night, decent side but nowt to write home about

Do you mean Olimpia?

They played Fluminense not Palmerias.

Given our last UCL group game is away in Belgrade on the Wednesday, unless we send some reserves I don't think we'll be able to play the Palace game that weekend.

Away in Belgrade Wednesday, Home on Saturday, Away in Jeddah on Tuesday is a big ask in my opinion with all the travel.

Doubt we get a choice.

The way it normally goes we won't be full strength for the Semi or Bill Bragg's Uncle's team.

I can't understand why any blue doesn't want us playing in final. Something we've never won that will add to our ever growing honours list if we win it. Bring it on!

I want this more than all domestic cups. I need that gold badge on our shirts

We'll have the group sown up by the last game and can play the reserves. City will want it played on the Saturday to avoid a backlog of games at the business end of the season.

Hopefully we have won the group before the last group game and we can send the EDS team.
Straight on a plane after Palace game.
