Bring it on!

For me people wanted to avoid Roma for 2 reasons, first of all their style of play is not the easiest for us to deal with, we knew that Bayern or Real would attack for which we could set up for the counter.

However the second is phycological reasons. We thrive at being the underdog.
Through the entire contest it has been 'the aim is to get out the group' which meant Porto was a free swing.
After we beat them we drew City, again leaving us in a 'nothing to lose situation'. We have not had the pressure of expectancy throughout the competition.

But now we find ourselves in a position of favourites for the tie, and this sits uncomfortably with some of us.
However what I would like to point out is the team have earned this 'Tag'. We want our team to be the best and with this comes the weight of expectancy.
This is a hurdle the team now have to overcome and I am confident they will.

Bring on Roma and Bring on the 26th of MAY!

Kolarov vs Salah is the biggest confidence boost we as fans could ask for.

We can definitely win this tournament this year, not saying we will, but it's there for the taking and in our own hands.

Of course it's never an easy game in Europe, but if we keep injury free, we can definitely do this.

So many players have proven, or are proving the doubters wrong:
Karius, Lovren, Milner, Chamberlain and so on - they should be proud of their achievement so far (I remember last summer people doubting Salah and the summer before Mane, I doubted Firmino in Aug/ Sept, but he's been a star and I'm delighted he proved me wrong) .

So should the fans be very proud, they have really come into their own again recently (not the Man City bus incident included) .

Should be an interesting next couple of weeks and maybe even an interesting night on May 26th, with a little luck.

To be in with a shout of silver wear atbthe business end of the season and be in control of our own destiny for top four is great.

Olisish, at this point any of the 4 teams can win it.
