Too bad that Alderweireld is not playing in this match. We will miss his leadership and composure in defence. We need all the available players to be at their best against Juventus. We need an early goal to help settle our nerves and put pressure on Juventus. Let's hope we will put up a good performance and get a good result in this match to go into the 2nd leg in good mood and advantage.

Do we know who have traveled?
Edit: Found it. Only Foyth, KWP and Toby didn't travel.

 

[Ade's folks are ok really]

Still don't get this "Foyth hasn't travelled" flip coming out of the media...was'nt he dropped along with GKN to make registration space for Lamela and Moura??

"Kane is now among the elite players in the world. Over the last years, with the goals he has scored, he has been on the level of the best," the Juve defender said ahead of his side's meeting with Tottenham in the Champions League on Tuesday.

"Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar – Kane has been on that level.

“You want to know the names?” Miralem Pjanic asks after it is teased out of him that on two occasions he turned down the opportunity to join Premier League clubs. “They were Arsenal and Tottenham.”

Yes

Watch out for Lamela against Chiellini tonight. Bad blood there. A 19 year old Lamela was sent off for kicking him in a Coppa Italia game after Chiellini provoked him.

ah ha, I've not seen the second part of that criteria before

 

[Charlie]

They are an aging team. We need to keep the tempo up and outwork them throughout the game.

I think they've conceded 1 goal in their last 15 games. I'd love an early goal or any goal for that matter but they are a tight old bunch.

Another Good Performance Would Be Wonderful!

I'd happily take a scrappy performance with the right result away from home

I'll take 4-0 and a man down at half time, a Kane hat trick in the second half to make it 4-3, and a taxi for Chiellini in the return leg.

That's old we have seen that before ... how about a 0-5 pumping and they have their strikers sent off ...

 

[Rorschach]

I'll take a win.

Blind optimism is great. Even just plain ol' simple optimism is good. Being hopeful also works.

But i'm a pessimist. Sorry people. Even when our recent form all points towards the contrary.

So i'm going 2-0 Juve.
They'll shut up shop after the second and we won't quite know how to react to the scoreline, risking conceding a third by pushing for an away goal, or take a 2-0 hit and try to do a big job on them at Wembley in a fortnight.

Higuain and Pjanic.

...Just being honest.

Juve are one of the most accomplished clubs in the world. I think 'our' pessimism is well founded.

2-2 im going for.

Kane and Son.
