Gary, don't try and make a fucking gag out the Barzagli 'challenge' - it's pure filth and it deserves a straight red.

I imagine there wouldn't have been any jokes if it was dele, instead calls for the death penalty to be reinstated and alli to be the first recipient for crimes against football

We are getting praise and rightfully so, this is probably the first time I can honestly remember pundits praising us without saying how bad the other team has been.


Yeah yeah But the real question is how long can we keep this group together when the big clubs come calling, that's the really interesting and fresh angle :rolleyes:

You might feel happy but just remember none of it matters unless you win the league cup, then all your dreams come true

Surprised at how muted Juve have been.

They looked scared of our attack from the off and continued that way.

In our hands now.

Keep up the tempo and intensity and no silly errors for 45mins.

That’s us, not them.

We play teams into submission through relentless energy, passing, movement and determination.

When we’re at the top of our game we’re a complete nightmare to play against.

Jive have been trying to press and you can tell they’re not fit enough or structured enough to do it. Higuian is blowing out of his arse.

Juve notoriously mount comebacks. They notoriously are impossible to kill. Notoriously leave things late. Until we're up 20 goals I won't be comfortable. Got to kill their will.

Chiellini hand ball he said he'd have given Should also point out ex Liverpool Jim Beglin on commentary only harped on about the Juventus shout, funny that

Wasn't sure about that one, even I gave him the benefit of doubt.

Feel Lloris looks nervy. And Verts. Need Moussa more involved. Thats our 3 senior guys, come on step up.
Tripps playing some neat passes and managing legal throw-ins, nice.

It's key that Jan stays on his feet now. Last thing we need at 1-0 is to give them an extra player on the pitch, especially if Dier isn't fit enough to slot into the back 4.

Other than that, it's just a case of maintaining our composure as Juve will have to throw the kitchen sink at us.

Came out and went right at it from the get go. Juve may well have been expecting us to be a bit more cautious, having the away goal advantage.

That was a good half of football, but we need to keep our wits about us, this Juve team are capable of scoring two goals.
