Match Threads Barcelona v Spurs - Match Thread (CL Round 6)

[guiltyparty]

As I said above - who does over them?

Exactly. We’ve picked our strongest 11 available

Are you trying to win the “SC most optimistic post of 2018” competition? .

@Ray_Evans You can put your eloquent little red crosses on as many posts as you'd like, but they don't change facts. Fact is, that's a line up more befitting Lukewarmspur, not Hotspur.

Funny seeing people talk about a weakened Barca side when we are lining up with KWP and a Winks/Sissoko midfield duo!!

KWP isn’t by choice, it’s injury. And I think Dier on the bench is probably right

Point is Barca have rested their players, we’ve picked the 11 Poch thinks can win the tie

Whatever else happens, I hope that:

(1) We fucking get at them and press them hard. Their defence isn't amazing and if we sit back and give them space, they'll tear us apart.

(2) We get a fair ref. They will be diving all over the place.

Ugh, Savage... seriously?

Cannot under estimate this. Barca and Real are shite-house kings.

Should be a great game. Add to that possible twists and turns in the other game too.
We can do it but they have some great players in the first team and match winners on the bench
They will likely boss the midfield with Rakitic, Arthur and Coutinho. I fancy us on the counter though. Should be goals tonight. COYS!

Tell me about it. At least he said he wants us to win.

He always gets behind us i think so I'm not too bothered.

Don't think he gets behind us particularly, but more gets behind the English team. Hopefully the commentary will actually be rooting for us, unlike a certain Mr Tyler.

Make no mistake that's an incredible weak Barca team. Yes, it's still Barcelona and they are playing at home but if we ever had a chance to win against Barcelona it's tonight.

I think it is abundantly clear that Barcelona are feeling afraid, very afraid indeed, and in an attempt at reducing the chance for utter disgrace at home facing the fierce and mighty of North London, they put out a team of 3 players from the starting eleven to be sure to be able to excuse the horrible result that is only inevitable.
