Kind of how I feel... my head says surely we can't fuck this up... my eyes will say something completely different come 8:30pm on Thursday... second goal is key... they will undoubtedly score first but if we can get the second it's game over... if they get it, it's still game over.

It won’t be plain sailing, I think we can probably all agree on that. No semi final involving us is. We will undoubtedly do something stupid like Romero getting himself sent off.

Losing Madders is massive for us but not just for this but the final if we get there. We only play well when he plays no matter what people think of him. He is our only creative player. We’ll get away with it against Bodo but whoever it is in the final we will struggle because Deki will plod about bashing into people giving fouls away. Add in Bergvall missing and we have a team that constantly give the ball away and nobody who can get on the other side of the opposition midfield with either a pass or driving by someone.
My confidence has taken a massive hit now.
We all know we will line up in the final with Sarr,Johnson and Deki all starting. That straight away scares the shit out of me.

If we get to the Final and it’s United, Deki has a very good record against both Manchester clubs tbh.

We bashed them up with Forster in goal and a CB pairing of Dragusin and an out of position 18 year old CM

All that means nothing in a cup final and you know it. It wouldn’t matter if we beat them 10 times this season. It’s Manchester United in a European cup final.

Nah, the best team wins usually. The odd freak occurrence but we’re beating United in the final if we get there and it’s them.

Most painful thing about that Liverpool CL is that in truth they were a better team than us. Only just and they needed help but they were.

If we get there and it’s them over Bilbao, we’ve lucked out because I’m not sure we’re a better team than Bilbao. They definitely weren’t until that red card and penalty.

Indeed, anything can happen.

Too much pussyholes in this fanbase giving up already as per usual.

Are we better than United without Maddison and Bergvall? 🤔

I would make them favourites, despite the results against them so far this season

In the last fortnight, show me where I have said we won't win, as opposed to words of caution and concern.

Try not to create your own reality,like so many on here.

But anyone who thinks simply believing we will win is enough, probably also believes earth is flat.
