    Clean sheet tonight. Keeping a clean sheet in Amsterdam is nigh on impossible.

    The key tonight, I feel, will be down the flanks. Need big, big games from Rose and Trippier as creativity and drive down the middle is at bare minimum and we have seen so many times that Llorente struggles to keep up with the ball to feet football of our other attackers. Get some decent early crosses in for him to attack and their wide men will already start thinking twice before pushing forward.

    The rows from 15 back in the lower East Stand are all marked reserved for Guests. Presumably all for UEFA?

    Nervous doesn't even begin to describe my feelings tonight. With whats available the formation with 3 Centre backs makes sense. But we can't sit back and let them run at us and and dictate the pace. Someone has to stop De Jong from being their kingpin and maybe that will Deles job tonight, Lucas will need to be at his very best and we must give Llorente the service that suits his game.

    Can't predict the outcome, just hope that we raise our game tonight like we did for City, if we do we can win

    We need an Eriksen masterclass and Dele circa 2016/17 tonight if we’re gonna unlock this Ajax defence.

    This. <ok>
    I think Trippier is gonna need to have a performance similar to one of his better ones last season. I have a nasty feeling he’s going to be the target man for Ajax tonight.

    Ok time to be honest... I’m cacking myself about this game. We need so many big performances in key areas. Any weaknesses and we’ve got problems. COYS give it everything!

    Good luck tonight. Great achievement for the club and even though I have always had a really bizarre dislike for spurs (no rational reason) - the club has been built in the correct way imho
    The football you play is exciting
    And you have a top manager down there
    Oh and your new home is great too :)
    So hope to see you in the final (I don’t think we will cause Barca untested so far so not sure if we have seen the best of them yet)
    Should be a great two games for you and Ajax :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Lots of warm embraces in the tunnel. Must be a strange occasion for our Ajax contingent.

    Looks more like a family reunion than a sporting rivalry!
