Looking at the Roma forums they're hammering the 3-0 comeback line.

 

"3 goals and we're in the final"

 

"Liverpool won't sit back and they'll attack us which will suit us"

 

"1 goal early doors and we'll easily get another 2"

 

"3-0 against Barca so we can do it against Liverpool"

 

"3-0"

 

If they want to hammer that message, sound. Watch it all fall apart when we bang in 4 within 10 minutes following them trying to press for 30 minutes. They need a minimum of 3 goals and they need to stop us scoring. It'll be hard to do both when yer team's bombing forward (see City 2nd leg).

In some ways there is more pressure on us as we have everything to lose, they don't and because of that I expect them to be well up for it, playing the kind of way that knocked out Barca.

 

An early goal from us would set the tone, an early goal from them gives them momentum.

Been thinking about them playing a pressing game and getting at us. 

 

Surely that'd be to their detriment, I doubt they've played like that all season, their stamina levels won't be at the same level as ours as we're designed to play that way, yes we've fell apart at 80 minutes a couple of games in a row because of this, but surely if they try the same thing they will too and we would take advantage of that.

 

All of the above is moot anyway because our front 3 will have scored at least one within the first half hour and the game will effectively be over.

 

Onward Reds!

Fuck sake.

 

City are miles ahead of Roma.

We went there defending a 3 goal lead.

They scored within 3 minutes and piled on the pressure.

And we still won the cunting game 2-1.

 

Relax! Virgil and Mo got this!

 

 

Just trying to ease my own nerves really!

Weirdly not nervous or arsed, like some stupid inner confidence. Not a good sign! I usually feel like this and bet on us -3 and things against shit teams which we inevitably fuck up.

 

Right now I think we win the game comfortably could well change by kick off though.

 

Just hope everyone gets home safe and sound.

Lads we’re 90 minutes away from the European Cup Final! Think back to where we were under Hodgson, and then where we were after Suarez left and we were humiliated in Europe.

 

90 minutes away from the final.

 

I fucking love it.

Under Hodgson! I don't need to go that far back to his 3 Month tenure.  Having to endure Rogers the shithouse for years is enough of a reminder for me.

 

edit:  Ah you mentioned after Luis left.
