Hate having to watch shit sides like Arse and United for hours before we kick off.

My goodness that's a shit side. Which makes me fucking nervous.

I actually think City will beat Southampton comfortably. This will be the start of their gradual slide away from the top of the table in my opinion.

Hopefully our first "bad" result doesn't come next week against that rancid Spuds side. Not sure I could take that.

Don't think I've even watched Sunderland once this season so I have no idea how they play these days in terms of play style and tactics. What can we expect here? Will they be a parked air craft carrier or what?

So we have to pay to see press conferences now? Wtf?

This will obviously never happen but LOL at people actually saying they wouldn't have the greatest player on Earth here. I mean, come on! Mourinho does want to build a 10 year dynasty and emulate Sir Alex. With Messi added to our current side we'd have the Premier League locked up for at least the next 5 years guaranteed.

Wasn't Cesc his best friend at Barca? I know Cesc's wife and Messi's girldfriend are best friends. Just saw an article in the Mail this past week about Cesc and his wife out in London with Messi's girldfriend. Not saying it's possible or probable, obviously.

Yeah, I keep seeing people saying he got injured.What a way to potentially spoil this night.

Has lionsden or nono stolen your TC password? This is the most frustrated I've seen you, Barb. I think Schürrle and Drogba are enough firepower off the bench if necessary.

Same. Also, Remy re-injured?

Excellent team. Would be just the match for Andre to gain his confidence back.

So with their best player out injured there really is no excuse if we don't win tonight. Yeah, it's a CL away match and anything can happen, but in the form we're in and with what's at stake here I'd be massively disappointed if we don't pick up all 3 points.

Anyone else? Can't find much on Twitter.

So is Draxler injured or not?

Once he hooks up with the best medical department in world football here he'll be fine.

Need a 3rd goal without conceding so nothing ludicrous or insane happens. Not celebrating victory yet.

Oscar my pre match pick for MotM.

I wish I was as confident as you are. These are the types of games I worry about. Teams we should be far too good for but who raise their game to ridiculous levels far beyond what they normally show.I'm much more loose and stress free before the big games because I know our boys will be well up for it. Against these I feel like our players sometimes think they can just show up and win based on their talent alone.

Anyone else expecting a lazy and frustrating start? Think this'll be one of those first halves where we see a super grumpy José on the sideline who will have to light a fire under our guys at halftime. Hope I'm wrong and we smash them. I actually want to sit back and enjoy watching Arse v United stress free which I won't be able to if we drop silly points or lose.

Yeah, the Varane rumor needs to die. Zero chance of him leaving Madrid.

Reus strikes me as the kind of ambitious player who wouldn't move from the club he supports just for money. For that reason I'd rule out PSG. I think he moves to a club who plays in a top league for a side that's ready made and stable which has conditions to win everything straight away. Can't see him joining a "project" or a side in transition. When you look at the teams that would normally be in for a player like him there are a LOT of things that go in our favor. -Bayern have world class players in his position and he would'nt fuck over Dortmund like Götze did -Real Madrid have absolutely no space for him -Barca has the transfer ban and even without it they have Suarez, Messi, and Neymar -PSG are in FFP trouble and play in a shit league -Man United surely wouldn't buy another super expensive attacking player and will strengthen their defense That leaves me with 3 feasible destinations: Chelsea, Man City, and Arsenal. Only reason I even put Arsenal in there is because he'd have a lot of German mates. At the same time, though, they have Sanchez and Walcott already in wide positions so you may be able to rule them out. Ourselves and City can offer similar incentives in terms of squads. He'd slot in seamlessly and make great sides even better. We have a much better manager, a ready made and stable defense, and the glamor of London on our side, though. It really would be the perfect transfer. When a player as good as Reus can be had for relative peanuts you have to act. It would be a Lewandowski-to-Bayern esque deal. Our attack would seriously be unstoppable. Just imagine Hazard and Reus on the wings with Costa in front of them and Oscar and Cesc behind them. Good lord!

Zero chance.

Good that it doesn't seem too serious. Nice that he and Diego will get a nice recovery period. I'd consider giving him even more by resting him against West Brom. Ramires and Matić should be enough to see them off at home.
