Enjoy the night off [emoji26]

I never said anything about getting someone. You only mentioned Koln & Hamburg, so I addressed that.

He did the business against Atalanta. A team that destroyed Everton on their own ground

Conte is paving the way for his exit if that has any truth

Him missing a sitter didn't help either

I agree. Conte can save a defensive line up for the away leg

I don't get this sort of attitude at all. We certainly aren't favourites but we should be going for the win at home. Conte has to field a front 3 tonight

He did the same this season and it hasn't exactly worked wonders. Hazard as a false nine is the last thing any of us wanted to see

Hope our big players turn up tomorrow and we end up with a positive result.

They didn't need to exert themselves over the weekend. I agree with the fact they are a completely different beast now and aren't anywhere near as attacking as they once were. The first goal tomorrow will be a deciding factor in the tie. Barca haven't been behind in many games this season, so it will be interesting to see how they fair should we take the lead. I do. We all know Barcelona struggle against physical teams, so he is the ideal choice in that regard. Morata is more suited to the away leg where we are hopefully still in with a shout and looking to hit them on the counter.

Isn't that the case before every encounter against Barcelona? He's the better of the two options we have. Watching Alonso getting outpaced all game would not only be tough, but probably be the end of the tie inside 45 mins.

Talk of him possibly playing for England now. Watch his price rocket if he earns a call up.

That might be the case but he just seems so raw. Lacks a decent touch, awareness and his finishing is quite bad as well. He's turning out to be a lesser version of Ramires, which is extremely disappointing. Hope he can turn this perception around though.

Fair enough. Bakayoko needs to regain any sort of form away from the club before he can make it here.

I'd say he does more right than wrong no matter how little or large his impact is. Just don't see him being detrimental unlike the latter. However, it's fair to say neither should have been signed in the summer.

Those are bold words. Drinkwater has his limitations but I don't think his commitment has ever come into question. Bakayoko's performance against Watford might as well have been at the park.

So do I. Just a shame that means diddly squat to the manager, seeing as Baka & Cahill have played the majority of games thus far.

It's called, going by history.

Can't field a team without a British representative

Let Drinkwater fill the English quota

I certainly hope so. Anyone is a better option than him

Conte has a simple decision to make

I'd be more worried by Suarez tbh. One f up from Cahill and he will gobble up the chance

I hope he's slowly pushed into our starting XI. His mobility alone makes him a more adequate WB than Alonso

No way on earth Dortmund are shelling out that type of money. Sold Auba & Dembele for almost £200m and they ended up getting a CF on loan
