People should either be caressed or crushed. If you do them minor damage they will get their revenge; but if you cripple them there is nothing they can do. If you need to injure someone, do it in such a way that you do not have to fear their vengeance.

The wine definitely is
Awful stuff.
Lived there for 6 months and the food and the people were great, beautiful country, hell - even the Carabinieri were ok.
But the wine,......pah!
Actually today I started to think about tomorrows game and I thought that why in the world is everyone expecting that Juve comes to us to attack tomorrow. I seriously doubt they will.
I think Allegri is cunning old dud and he starts the game with full parked bus. Remember - Juve needs to score once and keep us on 0 and mission is accomplished. Sure, some young and angry hot-head might come to brush us aside with attacking football but that is not Allegri's Juve stlye, and furthermore they don't need do do it. If they defend smartly then we will push the game to their side and being counter-attacking side, this is what they want. To soak up the pressure and hit us on the counter and score this one needed goal. So I expect first 25 minutes Juve playing in very deep positions. I just hope that Poch and all the players are ready for such a move tomorrow.
COYS!!!

Indeed. Conventional wisdom says they must attack us, but you’re right, Allegri might play 80 minutes of counter attack catenaccio and see where it gets him. If he’s ahead then they’ll forget the counter attack and simply lock the door.
They will be going for the classic italian 1-0. We should have too much for them in the end. Confident of going through. & I am not above going through on away goals. We just need to have composure like we have mainly had so far in europe this season

is fucking amazing on this thread!I doff my cap to you sir
That is exactly who we are. We offer no compromise
Were you at JFC Naples by any chance? I don't often disagree with anyone but the Italian wine I necked was sublime. Don't tell me that the French have anything that can stand up to a good Brunello di Montalcino or anything from the Veneto!
So so excited about tomorrow's game. Nervous, excited, butterflies in my stomach. I can't wait! 
Their squad that's travelled.
No Mandzukic, both Dybala & Higuain not 100%.
Didn't know mandzukic was injured.. good news! No del piero, pirlo or nedved either!

You know they call McGinn the Nedved of the North
And this forum calls Edwards Messi with an Afro, what's your point?

Yeah it’s a great feeling.
Was talking to a guy earlier about an FA game versus Peterborough back in the mid 90s.
It went to penalties .... about as dramatic as it got back then.
How far we have come...... we’ve earnt our stripes for nights like these.
I don't get to go to many games these days but I genuinely can't remember being this excited about going to a game since the Spurs v Woolwich FA Cup Semi final in '91.

I remember listening to that game on the radio. Glory days!
It’s good to recall stuff like that. Reminds me and many others just how great we have things right now. An incredible new stadium on its way, a classy manager, the best striker on the planet (a Spurs fan too), and we’re on the eve of a CL game against Juve after topping a group that featured Madrid and Dortmund.
It’s mental.
As for the game itself, I feel calm now and really looking forward to it. I’m sure I won’t feel quite so calm once it kicks off.
Mcginn might just look like a true celtic warrior if he copied nedveds iconic long hairdo.
