Respect this Barcelona team but no need to fear them. They have had some poor results and performances so far this season and the PSV scoreline flattered them.
Messi, of course and Busquets are the keys. We need to stop Busquets because he can dictate the game for them. Their back four are vulnerable. Almost a game where we play as the away team like v Dortmund and hit on the break.
If we play our own game then we need to squeeze Busquets and cut off the supply to Messi. He cannot hurt us if he doesn't get the ball.

Even with any of their players out and recent form, underestimate Barca at our own cost. Personally, i think that they will absolutely dominate the middle and take us apart from there. There's always the underdog and upsets, I just hope the lads put in a good performance. You never really know until the final whistle.

Yep... Beer on sale, and Ossie leading a Chas tribute at half time... Raucous.

This may be even busier than Real Madrid tonight. Fucking heaving.

Sissoko is everywhere, mate.
Starting Trippier in this is like tempting fate. Im scared of a 5-0 shellacking. KWP is better equiped to handle this, IMO. Young and inexperienced, yes. But IMO, is a better defender and definitely quicker. Less of a likelihood of getting burned, IMO.

Swap Davies for Rose and Trippier for KWP then I would have the team I wanted.

Shame about the injuries. Dont really expect anything tonight, given the mentioned injuries and our dodgy form lately. But COYS!
Need Winks and Wanyama to perform.

I think Davies was always getting rotated back in after Rose played at the weekend, honestly don't think Poch will have given that a second thought.
Would have gone for Dier instead of Winks for added solidity in the centre of the park, but the rest of the team looks spot on with what we have available and hopefully we can counter well against them.
