Roma (A) | 5th May 8PM - UECL Semi Final 2nd Leg - Pre-match Thread

[Wymsey]

It's going to be an emphatic win, and Jose will act like a spoilt child again, isn't it..

[justfoxes]

LEICESTER will be victorious in the Roman Arena taking down those Cocky Maureen’s boys by 1-3 DAKA to come on alongside Vardy to grab a brace !!😉 Maureen will then roll around on the floor like a petulant child screaming biased officials conspiracy to make Leicester win the whole Competition!!

They say Rome was built in a day, but from what I’ve seen they’ve not got round to finishing it yet. Absolute shithole.

Bloody hell, just the thought it happening to us tomorrow is giving me palpations

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Hope Brendan watched the Real Madrid v Man City match.....and saw how Pep f***ed up with his tactics.

Brings off his forwards and becomes all defensive....and the goals come flooding in at the end....abit like what happens with us 😟

I don’t know why but I’d start Hamza over Youri tomorrow. Never thought I’d ever say that but I think we’d benefit from having a proper DM tomorrow. Youri has let us down in both of the last two European games and that may be due to where he is playing. 
 

We need Maddison on that ball and in the centre. 
 

Really nervous now.

I agree with this, but I think Rodgers would rather play with 10 men than put Hamza on the pitch.  We certainly must have Maddison as a true number 10.

Tbf the McDonald’s near the Spanish steps absolutely bangs  

 

Love Rome. Hope you’re having fun everyone.

And it's there the All Stars end?   

[trabuch]

Be careful crossing the road.

[Bugg]

Any of my fellow Manchester based supporters know a good place to watch this in town tomorrow?

[TheSomersetFox]

All the best to the lads who make the trip. Do us proud win or lose

[KFS]

Anyone else preparing for a spanking just to be emotionally ready?

I have continued my tradition of only getting up for the 2nd leg.. which clearly has seen us progress... so... we are going to the final 
:)

[whoareyaaa]

I'm sure the day will drag today waiting for this.

[FosseSpark]

Definitely setting expectations at 'low' and hoping for a magical outcome not unlike the FA Cup or Community Shield where we were up against far superior opposition and managed to come through.

We will need everyone to have a blinder and for lady luck to smile down on us once more, but if we hadn't beat really decent Rennes and PSV sides we wouldnt be here would we so they should take some serious confidence from that.

Need to quieten the crowd, in an awful cliche, but they are 5th in the league and so nil nil after 30mins or 0-1 will see them jittery and take some of the advantage of the studio olimpico out of things.

 

Really looking forward to it whatever the outcome.

 

Another big game for us to enjoy.

[Illusion35]

I so wish I was in Rome, but I’m a teacher so it’s not possible as I have to work. Would love to come home to lots of pictures of people out and about in the city before the game
