***Champions v Leeds Official Match Thread***

Tough game this one. Has Pep met his match in BFS?!

But seriously, this is a golden opportunity to win and win well to put more pressure on Arsenal before an already tricky fixture in Newcastle away. And to give us a timely lift and boost before the Madrid semi on Tuesday.

The games are coming thick and fast as they always do at the business end so rotation will undoubtedly play its part. But we have got virtually a full strength squad to choose from which is as good as it gets to be honest.

As the Kaiser Chiefs(from Leeds by the way) once noted: I predict a riot

5-0 Foden

Just keep it going boys - we all know the drill and what is required. Expect Leeds to sit deep and stay in their own half. An early goal for us changes their game-plan so let's get after them from the start. Be a tough game all the same

Should batter them.

Thing that worries me is the neanderthal fat fuck of a manager might send his lads out with a message of "stick one on them, let them know you're here"

Heart says we batter them because bielsa taught them to play football, mind says we escape this with a goal win but a few injuries.

That would enable us to focus on the cup final and get a breather. Let's focus on today, get our job done and keep the pressure on arsenal

Very dangerous game to be playing fuckin around with the team so much. Just play the best players until we’re a few up and then make changes

One further change then. Gundogan for Rodri. Can see why. One eye clearly on Tuesday. Alvarez and Kevin as two number 10s behind Haaland?

Should be strong enough to win. Let’s start well and get our noses in front. Can relax if we’re a few goals to the good in the second half
