Chelsea and the Pool game is not the priority in my opinion because Arsenal will drop points to and I fully expect between 2 and 6 points for those games. The fact we never got an away goal is quite worrying and I am not sure we will qualify which would be a disaster. We need to win that game but we have the talent and home support to do it. Its going to be tight and I think we might lose a goal. What do you think?
Based on our home form we should be fine, but I still have flashbacks to Monaco in 98 when we thought we had a strong position and then shipped an away goal at home and crashed out...
We're lightyears ahead of that 1998 team nowadays though. Maybe not in terms of actual personnel, but definitely in terms of European experience, tactical awareness and all round nous.
