Match Threads Spurs v Barcelona - Match Thread

[worcestersauce]

How about this - They have 80% of the possession, we harass them and chase them all around the pitch like a pack of hungry wolves, throwing our bodies in front of the 50 shots they have at us, we nick 3 goals with our only 3 counter attacks of the entire game, they score 2, Lloris /Gazzaniga pull off 10 World class saves, we're literally dead on our feet having given it everything, and the crowd literally act as the 12th man screaming for the lads to hold out against all the odds as they are battering on the door for an equaliser with relentless passing on the edge of our box, and in the 93rd minute Poch throws Sissoko on and he heads straight for the corner flag with the ball and he shields the ball for a whole two minutes as 4 Barca players surround him to hold out, the ref blows for full time, our players literally drop to the turf through sheer exhaustion with only Sissoko and our goalkeeper left standing as the crowd let out an enormous roar as Poch go's onto the pitch with a beaming to pick em up !!! Job's a good un..... I can dream can't I?

You really are a hopeless romantic aren't you

Then again, we tonked Real Madrid with Moussa Sissoko in the side, so anything is possible

Bring me the Sissoko

Lloris
Trippier Toby Sanchez Rose
Dier Winks
Lamela Moura Son
Kane
?

I’ll give it a crack. I once played in front of Bobby Robson in the late 80s as an optimistic, mulleted
schoolboy. I just need to dig out my Puma Dalglish Silver boots and I’m good to go.

Raging I'm missing being there

Strangely looking forward to this though! Harry winks night to shine! COYS

And the team/poch get a royal ****ing off on SC for not playing them off the pitch and bitchslapping them 5-0

Going to the game, cannot wait!

 

[degoose]

Thinking more and more now and i really hope we start with a 343 , fairly sure its going to be messi, suarez and dembele and busquets will be back in the team as he was partially rested at the weekend.

I’ve seen a number going on twitter for face value. You in London for IP Expo for any chance? Can set you up with a few free drinks if so!

Testing new Ciena software

BBC radio five live and talksport don't play in Germany, as I found out last night. It's Unification Day here, so I'm not even sure what will be open. Allied to the rumours about Mourinho being replaced with an approach for Pochettino, I'm not in the best place in terms of meltdown. I'd think that giving SC a miss might be a good idea and just go to sleep!

 

[yiddopaul]

Was going to be a tough ask with a fully fit squad, now I will be happy to keep the scoreline down to say, 2/3-0!

 

[yiddopaul]

Gonna get proper schooled tomorrow night, but I don't even care... It's my only chance to see one the finest players of the game in the flesh. Glory Glory night indeed!

Harry Kane, but then we see him every week.

On a sober regime currently- tonight is going to really test my resolve

Nah, it’s one of those games that if we lose 0-5 we can say it’s Barca, it’s a freebie.

Been reading a fair few comments from the public on news sites and many are saying that they should go for Blanc to replace Mou. Fingers crossed for that!

Yes, but if we win I’m potentially fucked

 

[Partizan]

We can do something amazing.

Yep. Arsenal's record for biggest home defeat by an english team (1-5 to Bayern) is very much in play tonight.

On the train to Wembley, already impatient to see Sissoko repeatedly 'meg Messi later on.

I really hope the fucker scores and we win. If he’s starting for us, I’m putting a quid on it

Poch says that JM is his friend, so it might look odd if he took the job. He will also inherit a mess.
