Perhaps like DB10's feeling that it could be our year, I somehow feel supremely confident that we will be in the final
If we get pumped tonight then obvious I'll look a total cock (what's new eh) but all my logical thinking tells me we will score at least 1 and I just don't see anyone getting 4 against us. When we've needed to go to a peak Man City and park the bus we've shown we can and tonight we can
I also think PSG are an absolute dream opponent for us. Brilliant to watch but naively fearless and wide open. If we had Atletico or another low block team I'd fear the worst
Then it's the final and ideally it's Barcelona for the same reasons as above
It's very doable
I still have that weird unexplainable feeling Steve. It's almost overpowering!
I'm sick with nerves even though we are going into this second leg after a dream result in the first leg.
We’re always better against teams that come at us,and let’s be honest we’ve played fucking well against most “big” sides the last few years,it’s the defensive shit teams we’ve struggled against,
No one expects us to win,even from 3-0 up,I just fear the social media backlash from these wanker no-marque clubs fans if we blow it,this is our whole season in 90 minutes,let’s hope it really does mean something to them,I suppose it depends if the most over rated player on earth shows up for them tonight,but in have a nagging feeling we’ll go through,by hook or by crook,and I’m also expecting a shocking VAR decision and possibly us finishing with 10 men
I think that we are likely to struggle through but I expect a few yellows and players suspended for the semis .
just keep it tight and play the ball around without losing possesion. I would happily take a narrow defeat . 1 nil will do

I'm pretty certain that there is the equivalent of an Amnesty for All Teams / Players getting through to the Semi's... So if a Player gets Carded (Not 100% sure about Red) They are allowed to play in the next Leg / Round. So with Partey being on a Yellow from the First Leg if he gets another Yellow tonight the Bookings are wiped off for the Semi's.
The longer it's 3-0 the more they will start to panic and I can see us getting 2 on the break, 1 in each half.
2 -0 to us on the night, 5-0 on aggregate.
Get the fuck in and bring on PSG
Nurse, bring my meds
Shame it's on TNT cos I hate that twat commentator Fletcher, worst commentator out there, although Peter Drury on Sly isn't far behind
What's even worse are those two Bimbo's (Lucy Ward the Cabbage Patch doll who doesn't have a fucking Scooby and that fuckin' Uggo with the screechy voice Karen Carney...)
Female commentators and/or pundits should Never be allowed anywhere near the Men's game... Let them do all the wimmin's games, no problemo ! Because their knowledge of football suits the Level of the wimmin's football being played... ie: Fucking SHIT!
Me too and I posted before the 1st leg I thought we'd go through and now I'm even more nervous, mainly because if we fuck this up we will never live it down and I might have to move to outer Mongolia

This is my biggest concern - the abuse we will get if we bottle this will be on a scale we are never likely to forget
I would suggest You start Drinking Very Heavily and Frequently Rodders.... If we go through you can just Top Up... If we don't (And I am Sure we will!) You Can even enjoy the Hangover Tomorrow...
As usual the vast majority of Pundits & the MediaCūntWhores want us to fail... So We MUST Win just so we can Banter the Cūnts Mercilessly! (as well as Scum Fans)

It’s always good when someone provides a silver lining to a possible cloud.

don't think that's correct - it's AFTER the game tonight when the amnesty kicks in so that a player already on a booking from the earlier rounds doesn't risk missing a final by picking up another yellow in the semi.
So if Rice, Martinelli, Timber and Partey get a yellow tonight they'll miss the first game against PSG (if we go through )
If all 4 were to escape without a booking here it would be a minor miracle.

Correct OBG.
Wrong. Amnesty only relevant if you are stuck on 1 or 2 yellows. If you get your third tonight you are out for the first leg of the semi.

I have severe Wayne Bridge coupled with Paris 06 PTSD from this competition that will continue to haunt me forever.
