Not a joke you just need to have the necessary points and / or be in a branch....always a pain in the arse when they don't use paper tkts - unfortunately

A joke that:

1) we've only got 1800
2) the only ground in the WORLD that are arrogant enough to write names on tickets and enforce it. Who has a ticket in their actual name outright? Kids, those in non North West supporters clubs.. what points did it sell on? Only ground with the name check shite or I'd be there. Turns out in the end loads aren't named this time.

Militao (CB) suspended and Mendy (LB) injured which helps. Not sure about Ceballos, a midfielder. Presumably Akanji will play LB in preference to Laporte. A draw would be fine. Playing at home second is an advantage.

Had the same in Naples a few years back never going to check all the names but its a risk if its not your ticket

Real have had some strange results of late, and they wont have played anyone like us. So if Pep picks the strongest team (which virtually picks itself) and we're at it, I can see us winning. I'll go for a 1-2. Which would be fantastic.

He's the ultimate bellend. And fantastic evidence that you can, in fact, judge a book by its cover.

We should have learnt our lesson from last year. We are a better team as we proved against Munich. Strong performance required and I believe we will have too much for them

Hopefully Walker plays and has a good game against vinicious Jr and Ed has a good game. 3-1 City win. Come on you Blues!

This will be tough tonight, especially given our recent dip in form.
Hopefully City will be ready.

That's the spirit.

I think we'll lay waste to them.
