Steady line up. Stay in the tie and nick a goal methinks.
That's what it looks liked to me. Almost the same as last week with a small sprinkling of ambition this time and a full house behind us.

Aribo though the middle? Who from the midfield is going to support the front players?
Looks like Gio has set us up to stay in the tie.

Regardless of what happens tonight I hope the fans are there until the bitter end. The team deserve a full house no matter what. No empty seats at any stage!

I'm sure he has a suit (Ramsey is pictured in one) but there must have been a technical issue.
No biggie as the lad is clearly upset in another photo.
Not a criticism. Just an observation 👌

Trying to pick the starting XI for tonight isn't an easy task.
Balogun may feature for his pace but do we drop Barisic who's crossing was so vital v Braga? Midfield three could/should have Davis instead of a jaded Aribo?
Sakala, Arfield or Wright further forward to complement Kent? Surely Roofe has to start if fit but will Ramsey surprise us too?
So many questions, not enough cold beer.
The Bassey-Balugon-Barasic Conundrum... Sounds like an episode of the Big Bang Theory...

Really hoping this is true. You have to think that even if he's not quite fully fit, playing him is a gamble worth taking given what's at stake.
Roofe is a fighter and suits games that are tight with little breathing space. Even to get 60/70 minutes from him would ne great. Sakala and Wright (to a lesser degree) are better later in games when the play is more stretched IMO as evidenced on Sunday at Parkhead.

The word on the street or Edmiston Drive is that Roofe will make it tonight. Unconfirmed as yet...

Amazing the confidence coming from the gers support regarding this one. Even me who is a negative nancy fancies us to do it.
Why shouldn't we be confident? We've beaten some top class teams to get here and we deserve our chance. It's 90 minutes at home with a achievable deficit. The confidence is based on the evidence of what we've seen this season in Europe as well as as what we've built over the last 3/4 years. It's measured and quantifiable confidence as opposed to over confidence IMO.

really good team that.
With Arfield, Sakala, Wright as impact players later on if needed

It's quite a versatile line-up: Lundstram can drop to make a back-three; FBs can play higher or deeper; Aribo and Ramsey can swap and either drop deeper or get further forward; Kent can play higher too, or up front as a two...
It's probably a big part of the success we've had.
Versatility is what we'll need tonight to progress IMO

Do you know that you can centre your text?
Like this.
Or Align right.
It's in the toolbar at the top of the box where you post.
Makes it easier to post line-ups.
Although, the way you've posted it, you've got a 2-2-2-1-2-1 formation going on...
Apologies. Doing it on a phone. Anyhoo, Madame Secretary, whit about the line up?

10 and half hours and counting...
So, who to play? If declared fit, it has to be the team that started V Braga for me.
..................McGregor................
........Goldson........Bassey.........
Tav....................................Borna
.........Jack........Lundstrum.........
.....................Aribo.......................
......Ramsey...................Kent......
.......................Roofe....................

What did he get wrong other than the early let off of casimero? I think the pen was a little dubious in that Dias didn't make contact with Benzema but VAR would have checked.
Delighted to see city out, a soulless club. 1st leg a stadium full of people filming the game on their phones. Didn't see much of that tonight in Madrid
How he failed to deal with Casimero was awful enough as he set a standard he could not maintain. This ultimately led to players getting booked for very little compared to Casimeros challenges. Other incidents of note were Modric failing to be booked for raising his hands and grabbing a players throat. Foden being barged from the back by the CB then being penalised. Adding 6 minutes of added time? Ok Walker was injured but 6 minutes was ridiculous. It was almost as if he wanted Real to score. He then failed to add enough time in ET to accommodate the antics of Militoa who was deliberately put on in ET to waste time.
If we get a ref like that tonight I'll be raging. I've no love for City and how they've risen through the ranks but let's not put Real Madrid up there as a some paragon of virtue. There is a reason they have 13 European Cup wins. They have bent and massaged the rules for years with their finances to ensure their position as a premier European force.
Anyway, I hope Liverpool destroy them.

Roofe has recently posted a pic of him applauding the fans after Braga game (I think). Maybe a sign that he's going to make it?

City bottled it again but tonight's ref was a shocker. Genuinely hope Liverpool destroy Madrid in the final and get revenge for 2018. Real are an odious club.

Mixed the grape and the grain last season at some point and had a very bad hangover the following day. Schoolboy error!
Needs must. Went from sipping Rose to knecking it like water after Brava scored 🤪
