Not exactly convincing but a quarter final to look forward to. Gonna need to be much better to beat Frankfurt, hopefully Kulu will be back we missed him tonight.
Gwaaaaaaaarn. Big win. Not the best of performances but a big, big result and that’s all that matters.
One month to get things ready for the QFs. Until then, pray to the gods of international break for no < standard > events.
I’d like us to play our reserves and fringe players in the rest of the premier league games and keep our strongest team for this competition
Bloody hell TNT have really rammed the women’s champions league down our throats tonight, like anyone even cares!

Watching the Fener game now. One of my best mates is there along with about 30 other lads he’s introduced me to over the years. Great bunch of guys albeit complete lunatics… as you’d expect with them being Turks
Eintracht Frankfurt next Who beat Ajax 4-1 tonight and 6-2 on aggregate, and clearly prioritising Europe over Bundesliga form with them in a comfortable 4th place ...great
That’s no good bro That cup final vibe energy will be for their fans in the 2nd leg we have to play the 1st leg like it’s a one-off do or die imo This team and tactics can’t do a structured game plan so I believe we need a 2 goal lead to take to their place
