@Fred can you give us a little portrait of Monaco please, main formations, stars, weak spots etc

I think one of our main advantages over them is that we have +8 in the league while they are level with PSG and have everything to fight for in Ligue 1, they can afford 0 slip ups, we can afford several

I think we will start by 3-5-2 and let them consume lots of energy hitting a wall and switch to 4-2-3-1 midway in the second and finish them off. That way Marchisio can start and depending on his condition we make the subs.
I would be inclined to predict the first leg to be the most boring game in the history of 2017

We held a superior attack to 0 goals over 2 legs. Not taking them lightly at all, but if we can't progress against a team who start Andrea Fricken Raggi in their central defence, we don't deserve shit.
Indeed thats why I'm really confident to proceed. Mpappe, Lemar, Silva and their gunho fullbacks will be a handful, but they have really weak defense and no one in the team have experience really besides Moutinho (I mean at this level, Falcao is experienced, but not in CL lol).

Yeah as sad is it to say, his physicality might be more useful then Marchisio at this state.
he'll go into crazy chicken mode like he did when we gave him minutes against Barca, I think it speaks volumes that the only change Allegri made from first to second Barca game is not letting Rincon play

Let's clear up the misinformation... from UEFA's site:

Exceptionally, all yellow cards and pending yellow-card suspensions expire oncompletion of the play-offs. They are not carried forward to the group stage. Inaddition, all yellow cards expire on completion of the quarter-finals. They are notcarried forward to the semi-finals

So it's 3 yellows to miss a match? Meaning only if you receive a red card you can miss a match after the quarter finals?

so khedira won't play the 1st leg, but potentially we'll have a full squad in the final, unless somebody gets himself a red card suspension from the 2nd leg.
