Morata the CL killer might actually start then.
Nah, not over Zidane's favourite nephew, Eczema. Morata didn't get a minute in the two legs against Bayern.

Everyone said that about Portugal when they played the final but they went there and won so it has to be two players. I chose Modric, feel free to pick someone else if you want.
Modric would be good too, but I think Ronaldo and Ramos are their most influential players.

However, we can triumph regardless.

City and Dortmund can't defend.

If we stopped Barcelona's attack, we'll handle Monaco. It won't be easy but we'll go through.
:agree:

We've scored 17 and allowed 2 goals in CL. +15

Monaco have scored 21 and allowed 16 in CL. +5

People are overrating them beating mediocre City and Dortmund teams. Both 4th place in their respective leagues. And they hardly beat City. 6-6 on aggregate.

We are massive favourites and rightly so. It's certainly possible we lose, but it would be a colossal failure.

It makes no sense to build them up to be some insane team. We are better. By a mile. But they are decent and have a couple of promising players. Our players need to be focussed and not act as if they're in the final already.

But all of that really is something Allegri and our players will work on and because it's a semi final I have no doubt that they will take Monaco seriously. I expect us to go through after two solid, fairly uneventful wins.

It's ours to lose, if we approach both games in the right attitude I don't see any reason why we should not start planning a trip to Cardiff. Key elements being focus and humility.

This only truly because it makes you lose concentration and Monaco are capable of hurting you when you are sloppy.

just read this:

"fuck, it's juve", "worst possible draw", etc. so many gary neville's out there :touched:

it's the best draw for us, still, they are so freaking fast, unpredictable, they got nothing to lose, it won't be easy by any means.
Just took a look there and they of course admit that we're strong but they wanted to avoid us and were irritated with the draw because... they believe they gonna be fucked by the ref. RUBEEEE ::lol3::

Last game we played with them - they were fucked by the ref with non existing penalty. It was very tough to play with them.
