Honestly no sarcasm. I think Pirlo is gonna beast this. Not got that Scottish wit down as well as you thought ;)

Feeling good about this game. Vidal Lichtsteiner and Pirlo are gonna put in beast performances and Tevez is going to find and exploit all the holes in their defence like a shark smelling blood.

It's pretty good. Got me more excited myself

Just ONE MORE SLEEP. Don't recall the last time I was so excited for a game.

You're right. I'm changed my mind and I'm with you now - Pirlo playing is the right call. He's going to decide this game in our favour by generally dictating the match. Forza Andrea! - - - Updated - - - I've also got a good feeling about Vidal in this game. I think he'll come out all guns...

"Do you think I'd still be playing at the top level at 37 years of age if I had any weaknesses?" Dayum!

Probably not the best game to test Barzagli's fitness...

I watched Dortmund's game against Stuttgart on Friday. They looked surprisingly ordinary and besides their goals they only created a couple of other chances all game. Their defence wasn't really tested but looked less than solid. Stuttgart played with a deep defensive line and allowed Dortmund...

The nerves are away for now and all I can think of is how much I'm looking forward to this game. Huge fixture. - - - Updated - - - Good man! I'm more concerned about our attack too. Dortmund's defence looks less than solid though.

I'd reset yellows after the group stage and before the final. If somebody gets a red card they'd still miss the first last 16 game or the final though.

Jesus so it runs from the group stage till after the quarters? Seems a bit long.

Does it get reset after the last 16?

That's what I was thinking. As @GrandeGigi said our 4312 looks shaky. If we're going to play with Pirlo I would much prefer having more players around him. Giving him more options to pass when he's being pressed as BVB are sure to do is a good idea. Llorente did far better last year than this...

If the general advice is for us to stop Dortmund from playing their game by putting the lock down in defence and midfield...what about us playing 352? It might make us far less shaky than we have been while giving Tevez all the space loves to use and could even make Llorente click again...

Here we fucking go!! The big one! Let's fuck them up! - - - Updated - - - Starting to feel real now that the thread is open...
