I doubt this goes to pens but if it does who do you lot think takes them?

 

Only player I feel comfortable taking pens is isak. Maybe Bruno as well if he wasn't having such a weird season. Id have added Gordon to at list also but he's suspended

I don't know how I would cope if it did. Schar took a good pen previously hasn't he?

Obviously depends who's on the pitch but I'd think the 5 would come from Isak, Wilson, Schar, Bruno, Tonali and Trippier in some order.

Not sure what Isak will look like after 120 minutes or Wilson after a potential half an hour+ mind

(Class feet by ASM for chance at 0-0, would've been such a good goal)

 

Forgot how lucky that 2nd was - did it go down as an OG as it was clearly off target?

 

Also, their first was a soft foul by Bruno for the free-kick - twats!

[Unlucky Luque]

Don’t want Bruno anywhere near pens, tbh. Way too emotionally invested.

Rather have the blandest, most milquetoast players stepping up, your Krafts, Targetts 

[Superior Acuña]

In Forest shooutout Isak, Gordon, Bruno and Longstaff scored, Joelinton missed.

 

Bruno skied one v Palace on road to last final.

Initially went down as OG but was given to Rashford.

From what I have seen of Liverpool, and again in moments last night, yes they have undoubted technical quality, but alot of the time it feels like forced chaos. 

 

You see it when Salah bulldozes his way through, or Jota, they just play at such a frenzied chaotic pace that the ball seems to just ricochet their way most of the time and they force errors. 

 

I watched a few of their attacks and if it wasn't for PSG having incredibly athletic defenders, Liverpool would have scored far more. Some of those chances if they are up against Burn or Schar or Trippier will be heart stopping. 

 

On the flip side, it looks like the only way to get at them is to be on the front foot and try and get down the side of them and stay away from VVD who is like a magnet and reads the game so well. 

 

We are going to need Tonali to have the game of his life and mop up every counter attack if we don't park the bus however.

Fabian Schar takes one, he's excellent at them

Anyone know of anything NUFC related happening down London Friday night? Saturday and Sunday (obviously) sorted but at a bit of a loose end Friday night 

[Sibierski]

The best thing about last night it going to pens, is Liverpool losing on them too.

 

Winning, the mental boost that gives overrides tired legs. Now, they’re going to be mentally tired after a set back which will add to their legs feeling more tired. Gives us a great opportunity if it’s level after 60, to really push it and win it in final 30.

 

Our midfield has to be all over them physically.

Isak, Barnes, Schar, Tonali & Burn

Anyone still needing trains? Or know anyone else needing them? Mate's old man has decided against going as he didn't get a ticket and has the following journey booked. £168.99.

Fair play for the name like

[buzza]

I think willock would be more useful in this game than barnes. We will be on the back foot for most of the time and speed on the break will be essential.

He also tracks back a bit more.

Barnes on for the last 20 mins if we are in need of a goal
