Wouldn't be shocked if end up on the wrong side of a cricket score in this one.

I'd rather be thrashed by Madrid than a City team who could beat us so badly over two legs that it might have long-term mental effects on some of our players.

This City team vs  this Chelsea team over two legs is the kind of sporting fixture where pro gamblers make their living. They wait and wait for the near 100% certainties as you can get in sport and pile on huge sums of money.

Havertz does have the knack of getting goals for us in international matches yet agree he has been poor for some time. 

It’s odd but I’d rather play him against Real Madrid than Wolves. CL games seem to suit him better. Although last time against Madrid he did have Werner running wild alongside.

A terrible pro gambler might 😂 a good one certainly doesn’t

No, not some crazy formation... all of them are on yellow cards and could potentially miss the second leg

 

Seven cards it is then!

Agree and we're a cup-team, for what it's worth. The players will "raise" themselves, push together and surprise both us and the media........as long as we don't concede silly goals early in the game. We urgently need the first goal to lift the spirit.

Got to play 3 at the back.

Then it's a question of 343 or 352.

No away goals, so I'd be tempted to go 352 and make it boring as hell. 

Silva, KK, Fofana; James, Chilwell, Kante, Kova, Enzo........then 2 from Sterling, Mudryk, Havertz, Felix

I'd have done the job for less money than Frank.

I'll have a Portuguese reserve Port.

As for the game. This lot are far from a great RM side and wouldn't be anywhere challenging for the title in this country.  But as they showed last year they still have a couple of world class players who can produce moments of magic when needed, but they certainly can be got at defensively.
