Very few good options on your bench now. Fancy Madrid by 2 goals

Can't see anything but a comfortable city win over the two legs, madrids luck will run out eventually.

Walker’s pace will be vital, Akanji did a great job at LB the other week.

Bernardo, Haaland, Grealish across the front

If it were the team in the op we’d have Akanji, Foden, Mahrez and Alvarez on the bench…

We’ve got the Portuguese Stewart Atwell reffing, expect the worst

yous ready for a beating ?

Hala Madrid

Normally I cheer for whoever plays City.

But Real Madrid need a beating. I'm sick of them winning the CL. City should be able to do it but they have a history of CL bottle jobs.

Yes I also have to say that RM are there for the taking, the luck they have had can't last forever, can it !

Swap Akanji for Laporte and the op is how I would go too.

GOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Madrid scored already and it's still over 2 hrs until Kick Off

Harsh time for Citey

I like it

I’d take a draw tonight.

The line up I predicted.

First time ever.

I see all the 'injured' Madrid players have miraculously recovered.

I’d take anything that gives us a realistic change of progressing at our place!

There is a small optimistic part of me holding out for an Arsenal repeat. But I darent say that too loud 👀

Pep saying that we're not looking for revenge.

That means we most certainly are.

If that were to happen, would be more likely in the home leg.

Rodri's saying we're out for revenge.

That'll do me.

For sure, we’ve done it at home against some very good sides this season. Would love us to really turn up tonight though. No overtinkering from Pep, it’s our best available eleven (forgot Akanji had filled in at LB already)

Should have had a pen, Rudiger should have had at least a yellow - The officiating is going as I expected.

Still well in this, a bit disappointed with KdB so far.

Don’t like giving them yellows at their place do they…

Started so well, unlucky to go in a goal down, but we know how they can switch it on and be dangerous as well as any.

Still well in it as you say, not much help for Grealish on the left though, couldn’t wait for HT after they scored

No doubt they are a great team but a bunch of thugs as well. Rudiger clearly drove his elbow into Gundo's head, where was the VAR red card review? Where is Yaya when you need him? would have put him into row F. And as for Kroos' 'tackle' on Gundo, over the ball? nearly over the waistband.
