Cordoba out for 2nd leg

Play crouch and kuyt, basically to keep the defence busy dealing with crouch in the air and chasing dirk everywhere. when theyre knackered because the defenders cant join in the forward play, put torres on to capitalise..............just a thought, shoot me now if you want!

Were massive favourites now

Over confidence KILLS!!!

I`d start with a 4-5-1, with Torres on top and told Babel to stay bit higher in midfield to hit them on the counter-attack. It`s easy to take out one player with speed, it`s much harder with two quick ones running into the spaces.

No i dont agree. With the defensive quality we have we can stop them and keep them at bay. As time goes on they will become more desperate and start committing more and more players forward. Thats when we will be dangerous and can hit them on the break and kill the tie

I'd tend to agree with you, although it's a bit of a dangerous game to play.

If they go 1-0 up at any point even within 60-70 mins or so, we'll be hanging on very nervously. Obviously, if we were to sneak one at any point, it's game over.
