Torn on who plays. Son and Lucas can run circles around their backline, whereas I think Llorente is strong enough and smart enough to shithouse their backline to kingdom come as well.
But both Sonny and Lucas work well with Fernando in a classic big man+littler man partnership.
As I said, torn here.
I think I would, if we sit back against them we'll get torn apart.Feck it. Play all 3
Go through....we still have a chance in the league even with defeat at City, but there ain’t no second chance in the CL, it’s win or go home!
People are getting a bit holier than thou about City's niggly fouling, we're just as bad/good at it...
Moura doesn't start here, he will feel very hard done by.
I think a solid defensive midfielder is key to our style of play. Just as much as a good creative midfielder. One of them control our play whilst the other focuses on controlling the opponent.O feel like we were..a couple of seasons ago...I remember reading an article about our midfield and the number of those fouls we concede to stop attacks (lamela being the best...love that busy cunt). Lately, we seem opposite to that imo...seems like the oppos midfield get through us way too easily...may be it's Eriksen who imo doesn't really seem to tackle per se and we don't have a dembele or a busy little bastard in there somewhat akin to kante...? Just my thoughts
Better even, bring on Dier and Lamela for cameosPeople are getting a bit holier than thou about City's niggly fouling, we're just as bad/good at it...
Thought Llorente was excellent on Saturday but it's Lucas who scored a hattrick and it's he who will be full of confidence. Furthermore I think we need a counter-attacking threat and the speed of Lucas and Son will have City mindful whereas if we have Llorente up there he will be a easier to nullify given City will have most of the ball.
If we make the semis, is the first leg for sure at home?
Yep 30 April or the first of May.
Stop this talk immediately!!So if we go through have city bottled the quadruple? 8
Come Saturday afternoon we could have all but ended there hopes of the treble as well!
