t00nt00n313 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) I had a check at the table standings. If we can get a draw to psg then regardless of what happens at dortmund Vs Milan we're going through assuming that Dortmund are able to get at least a single point to psg at home (so as long they don't lose their home game), and we also beat Milan at home. The only part of that I think is unlikely is us getting a draw away to a psg team that's out for blood with half of our squad injured. So if we do somehow managed to get a draw it will be massive.

But after GW6, there will be no European matches until mid Feb, so plenty of time for everyone, bar Tonali, to return. Yes, with our intense style of play and fixture list, there will likely be more injuries, but that may well be the same in future years and you'd always want the team to do as best they can.

As long as our chosen 11 are a strong first team of high quality players, as they were against Chelsea last weekend, then we will give a VERY good account of ourselves tonight.

Paullow Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 That said, I'm just not really feeling tonight for some reason. The injuries and back to back losses against the supposed weakest opposition has deflated me a bit, and I am expecting a routine 2 or 3-0 loss and will be very pleasantly surprised if we get anything. After the euphoria of the hpme PSG match, the competition does kind of feel like it's passed us by with those two losses, early kick off times and the hardest match on paper, by far, still to come. Away at Milan and Dortmund we were fairly equal odds of circa 6/4, yet barely laced a glove, whereas tonight we range from between 4 and 5/1 so it will be extremely tough (we were faves in the home PSG match, but away is a totally different proposition). If we do go 2-0 down then I may actually switch to the Milan Dortmund match in the hope the former doesn't win so that our European journey doesn't completely end tonight. Even if you think we may be better off finishing 4th than 3rd (I don't), you'd surely want that last match with Milan to be somewhat live - it would be gutting if we were out of Europe altogether, which I suspect we will, with one match still to go, especially after topping the group after 2 games, and many expecting 4 points to come from the Dortmund double header. Hope I'm wrong, and apologies if I am bringing gloom to what should be a positive thread and occasion for the club, but I'm just not really feeling it.

Absolute massive game for us and this is the mind set man I understand it though. Let’s face it a victory there would be remarkable if full strength. We are down to the bare bones and it would be miraculous to turn them over with the squad we can put out. That said, thought we’d lose against Chelsea (for the same reason) and we battered them. So adopting my usual hoping for the best, preparing for the worst kind of approach to tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
