    Falcao and Reyes on the bench could be game changers if they need them .

    Think we might get a draw here 1-1 2-2 Do not see us having enough to nick a win .

    Even without Falcao and Reyes Ath Mad Front 4 is very dangerous .

    Salvio ain't all that and Diego is inconsistent. We don't need to fear this team. We're at home and we can beat anyone.

    The extra man in there isn't going to help us against them in midfield. It's Ki. They'll dominate the middle regardless. We should have went into what is a must win match with our best team. We haven't. It actually looks like he's playing for the draw.

    Yees because playing St. Mirren is the same as playing A. Madrid :97:

    Would Ferguson put out a team that beat Wigan to play Barca? No he would not.
    It was a nessa

    We've dropped Hooper to play an extra man in the middle. With Ki, Kayal and Wanyama in the middle I think we're much more likely to do that. Sensible decision by Lenny I think.

    It was a vital tactical decision.

    Ki is exactly the person to play if you want to retain the ball.

    Watched him play for Benfica last season and he was great. Ripped PSV a new one.

    If Diego is given space he will punish us, no doubt about it. Inconsistent or not.

    Disappointed that Neil hasnt shown the confidence to continue with the side that played so well on Saturday. However, we will hopefully still be good enough to win.

    I know he is. What I said is they'll dominate possession anyway, as you'd expect from one of the best teams in Spain. Ki or no Ki. Yes, when we've got possession Ki will be vital. However, when we don't have possession, Ki will be as useless as Hooper would have been.

    If we played the same team as Saturday, Athletico would absolutely dominate possession. Even in the first half against St Mirren we struggled to get a touch of the ball at times.
