There’ll be a fucking riotIf Sissoko is fit, don't mind to see him in the midfield. He always seems to raise his game against the best teams.
Isn’t he (Sissoko) better than Dier this season?!There’ll be a fucking riot
Need Sissoko clatter Messi for a repeat of this.If Sissoko is fit, don't mind to see him in the midfield. He always seems to raise his game against the best teams.

Sissoko is an incredibly limited player but in the games against Madrid last season his mobile and athletic presence was useful. He kept it simple and helped us a fair bit. Obviously if better players are available then he shouldn’t be involved but in the worst case scenario where Dele, Eriksen and Dembele are all missing then we may need him.

The fear in Noble's face is what I feed off..Need Sissoko clatter Messi for a repeat of this.

they still chose to 'rest' Messi and Busquets at the weekend.

Alex Ferguson always said CL qualification was all about getting 10 points from your six fixtures. We should have three on the board by now, and be able to enjoy this but, well you know what happened in Milan.

This now means we HAVE to beat Inter at our place and do the double on PSV. And that still means we need a point from our two ties against Barca.
Camp Nou will always be a tough place to get anything from, so from a mathematical point of view we need to get something on the board in this fixture. A draw wouldn't be a disaster - but a defeat would mean we have to take points in Spain.
Heart says 3-1 Spurs; head says 1-1 is good enough for now.
10 point assertion stands on basis of Inter getting points off Barca (likely but not definite)
It's also presupposing PSV are the lambs to the willing slaughter. I would think PSV might have a thing or two to say on the matter.
No way Barcelona are as good as they were 3 or 4 years ago but neither are we as good as we were last season..
Not a game I am worrying about as I see the Premier League as far more important and the Cardiff game one to worry about more.
Nothing will be decided on Wedbesday.
DAMMIT... for a moment there, I thought you'd stumbled upon a solution!!Handle Messi and half the battle is won. Unfortunately, after 15 years no one has managed to handle him.
"Wait...hold on. What if we DON'T let Messi score curlers, make inch perfect passes, and dribble past our backline? Why did no one think of this before!"DAMMIT... for a moment there, I thought you'd stumbled upon a solution!!
Don't mind the score as long as we show up and play positively. None of this negative defensive Mourinho circa 2010 semi shit
