I have this horrible sense of impending doom about tomorrow. I really hope I’m wrong. My last two nights have been f**king ruined. I don’t need a third one on the spin. 

Sarri has to get these c**ts up for it and wired from the start. We need to blitz them and get this game out of sight as soon as possible.

The Blitz will come from the Germans while we do our usual ponderous play and fail to take our chances. 

These past 2 days have drained all football hope from me.

 
The last 2 days have been a horror story. If these ******* dont show the heart that liverpool or spurs showed ill be furious.

 
i got a bad feeling about this one, they are no push overs, and even if chelsea are bang on it,  going to be a very tough game

 
The two w**kers in the CL have had unbelievable nights followed tomorrow by the Chelsea and Arsenal having horror stories, well lets hope so for Arsenal anyway.....a nice to have trophy tucked in the cabinet but really as long as Arsenal or Spurs don't win a thing I'll be happy....still can't get over Spurs getting to the final....Liverpool should blow them away or it could end up as an EPL league game and end as a stale mate and penalties...God please do not let Spurs win a trophy :face_palm:

 
I don't think Frankfurt are really capable of a gameplan involving parking the bus and hitting on the counter attack, AFAIK they are a very attack-minded team, so should be another entertaining game.

If Hazard starts, as I assume he will, we should be more clinical in front of goal than the first leg.

 
Even though Chelsea and Arsenal are both in decent positions after the first leg, it is hard to imagine 2 all-English finals. UEFA will no doubt be doing everything in their power to avoid that scenario. We need to be on our game tomorrow.

Why exactly?? 

 
I don't buy any of that. What would be their goal in that? Manouver things so only 3 English clubs are in the two major finals instead of all 4. If you are softening the possible blow for tonight I get it but come on people. 

I don't like the idea Kovacic is playing in Kante's position. Otherwise we should be starting with the best 11. Kepa, Azpi, Christensen, Luiz, Emerson, Kovacic, Jorginho, Ruben, Hazard, Giroud, Pedro. 

 
After last two nights going expecting nothing, crowd will be flat as a pancake and full of tourists (same as usual) while Germans will invade the bridge in massive numbers, reckon it will be 2-2 with them equalising in 90th minute!!! Apart from that it's Friday tomorrow.

 
So far this week has been really, really sh*t. I am not holding out much hope for tonight being any better. We've secured at least a 4th spot in the league and I have a feeling the team will now be on the beach. Please, please prove me wrong lads.

 
I am concerned that Sarri doesn't know how to beat a team that has to attack. Frankfurt have to score and at some point in the game they will be pressing us playing out from the back. I have concerns with Luiz and Anderson making errors. The dynamic of the tie would change if they got an away goal so it is imperative we do not concede.

Apart from that I think we can score and there's no way Hazard will not be up for it. An early goal would settle the nerves but the players will really have to be on their game tonight.

A big atmosphere should help blow Frankfurters away.

COYB!

 
Great chance for us tonight, we've got a great home record in Europe so should be feeling pretty confident of getting through. 

I'm hoping Sarri doesn't play safe and looks to take the game to Frankfurt who are going to need to commit numbers forward to score. 

Team I would like to see tonight:

Kepa

Dave - Christensen - Luiz - Emerson

Barkley - Jorginho - RLC

Pedro - Giroud - Hazard

If we can get a goal in the opening 20 minutes hopefully that will knock the wind out of Frankfurt. 

 
Nervous, but at least we have champions league football next season no matter what!

 
Top 4 secured and Hazard's last chance to win another European cup with us, no chance we don't qualify here at home. We wore them out with our passing in the first half last time, so should be able to do the same this tie round.

Kepa​

Azpi Christensen Luiz Emerson​

Jorginho​

Kovacic     RLC​

Pedro    Higuain     Hazard​
