I'd bite your hand off for penalties right now.
I’m not feeling confident but we have a chance
Which it didn’t appear likely in that first half shitshow
We’re still in this. They’ll be nervous at home. We’ll play with freedom. Nothing to lose now.
Son will make a difference obviously, but he can’t take on whole defence. There’s no one that runs past the strikers or makes forward runs that’s why we rely on someone taking their whole team on. It’s just poor.
Need to change the dynamic of the team in the summer.

Except against Dortmund.... when we won 3-0.
or away at Dortmund... when we won 1-0.
If you can't read between the lines, i'll make it clear for you.
I don't expect us to keep a clean sheet at their home. I still believe we can win, but I don't think 2 goals will be enough. I can see them scoring 2 as well. I'm not "predicting" it. I'm just not confident we can limit them to 1 at the moment.
He didn’t say that surely?
As he's not in the squad - a bit difficult. Or are you referring to David Janssen aka The Fugitive?
That's the thing for me. His finishing touch wasn't great, but he never stopped running. Between him, Sissoko, and Rose, nobody worked harder while out there.
Replacing Moura would be a mistake. We most certainly have the money to replace the other three. Will we though is the real question.
Aaah - Fucking Maggot - I didn't recognise you. Nice to catch up with you again. Still having problems with your little willy, I see.
Meh. I think the ‘British’ media created such a frenzy about Ajax that we all - and maybe the team - believed we were facing 11 teenage Messi’s. Second half showed they can be got at - they’re far from the best team I’ve seen us play. Man City are miles better than Ajax and must be kicking themselves right now.
Wanted a clean sheet but in some ways tonight’s result may (oddly) work in our favour. Going there with a narrow lead would have meant we try to defend that lead - like at the Etihad ... However we now have to go there and attack them. And if we get a goal their away goal means nothing.
Thought Sissoko was immense tonight - MoM despite being on the losing team. Trippier looks like a man who has lost all confidence. Everything he tried went wrong. Dele also got no luck tonight, and he played within himself a bit - perhaps understandable given his broken arm which will probably make him hold back.
Second leg - I think with Sonny back and maybe even Harry, we can nick this. COYS

Have you got one arm ?
Poch did not figure it out. He was forced into making the change because of Jan's injury.
