    I'm guessing it will be 4-3-1-2 with Casemiro-Modric-Kova and Isco in midfield and Ronaldo-Benzema in attack.

    There is really nothing to hide for Zidane. If PSG go all out early they will know what's coming to them later when everyone is tired. If they play it safe in the first half then our players won't be too tired and we have even more options in the second half.

    I love how the media (and barca fans) are all riding Di Maria HARD as if he is going to kill us or something LOL.
    While I agree he is Dynamic, his pace has decreased, he is 30 years old already and he isn't the same Di Maria that was in Madrid.
    I will say another 3-1 win.

    Real just don't know how to defend properly at all. I believe that we all remember the return leg of last season's half finals and how Atleti managed to score twice in the first 20 minutes. PSG is going to press hard in the early minutes and try to score asap. PSG on Park des Princes is a totally different beast. I expect ADM to step up and show Perez & co. that selling him just because he couldn't help much in marketing (selling shirts) was a mistake.

    I'm sure that PSG is going to win the match. 2:0 is a viable result that could get them through.

    How people keep saying PSG is a diffrent beast in France and use the 4-0 vs barca to prove it. As if this were anything like last years situation. For me, if we fail tomorrow, we are just as bad as they are. We have everything in our favour and Im sure that more than before, Zidanes job rides on the ticket through. Really cant see us messing it up.

    The thing about Madrid is that "not foreseeing " them messing this up, is a good indicator of what's possible....

    This Madrid side are very flakey.... Madrid do tend toi score though - so, as I can't see them getting lacerated 4-1, the scenario of a 3-1 and then extra time isn't exactly impossible.... A lot of the PSG players have something to prove without Neymar..

    I'm pretty sure Lucas will start. Casemiro, Kovačič, Lucas and Isco if Modrič and Kroos are only 50-60 ready, if not, one of them will start instead of Isco.

    Wouldn't mind starting with Lucas and Asensio out wide with Benz and Ronaldo up front and Kovacic and Casemiro up the middle. I don't think I'd start either Modric or Kroos unless they are 100%. Risking an injury 30 minutes into the game and having to waste a sub is suicide here. Isco, Bale, Modric and Kroos on the bench to change the game in any way you want.

    Kovacic worries me a little. He's deserved the chance to start in a big game, but he doesn't have the experience of Luka and Toni, and keeps making silly mistakes. He needs to be a bit more conservative and earn his way into a more consistent rotation with Toni/Luka.

    We will definitely concede and it might even be in the first half. That is when we will miss the cool, calm heads of Modric and Toni. One thing this team has more than any other is the calmness that comes from winning so much. They don't panic even if they go down a goal.

    If we score 1 we will be OK, I think. Ronnie has been playing well. Benzema has been playing well. We'll be OK.

    Do you guys see how much focus has been put on the ref? We knew this would happen and PSG have deliberately done that since the first leg. Only thing that will really piss me off if we go out because of refereeing decisions.

    Damn...... dat bench!!!!!!

    I wouldn't start Modric or Kroos either because if they are just 75% they won't be as effective. Just because its Toni Kroos out there isn't enough. He has to play like Toni Kroos. We'll be fine and we can bring on Modric in the second half regardless of the state of the tie.

    Putting Isco AND Bale on the bench might be a big call. Zizou has the balls to do it. Zizou has earned the right to make that big call though. Whoever he puts out there.......... we'll be ok. What gets lost in all this is that we have a 2 goal lead.
