Most important game of the season by far. Both from a financial aspect and a footballing one

All we need to get through is a draw, if we mess this up there is seriously no hope left for us

Needing a draw is unfortunately the worst psychological mindset to go into a match with.

Quoted for truth. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) It's Ajax for crying out loud, they can give us a regret or two to remember anytime!

Urby suffered a knock today in training, his presence for the game is in doubt.

This is a bad situation. Not the best prepared setup to go into the game, but let's hope we can pull it off.

Needless to say, if we lose Allegri must be fired. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Interesting team tbh, if remotely accurate. Problem is these outlets, as you know, get it wrong 100% of the time so that won't be the team.

I won't even try to guess what the team will be.

Problem is this is an Ajax team in the ascendancy. Second in the Eredivisie, last 6 matches have been excellent wins including beating Barcelona.

They're suddenly on a hot streak and won't be pushovers.

If we get the draw I'd be overjoyed.

I don't agree. A draw would be the minimum requirement. It doesn't matter if Ajax has been winning non-stop lately. We're playing at home, the most important game of the season, with all our best players at disposal. We should aim for the win, and we should get it.

A draw would see us qualify? Then Im all for it. What is important here is to qualify.

As for Allegri leaving ... Where have I heard that before (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I stand by my point. We need a draw, and that will play on the players' minds as being the requirement. It's a terrible mindset because what do you do if you're 1-1 with 3 minutes to go and Ajax are dominating?

It's a horrible result to need because your mindset is not focused on victory.

And before you say 'it should be', well, that's the problem. It isn't.

As for our best players, we may well have all our players back now (more or less) but you and I know Allegri will not start them all.

Allegri's never leaving. We're actually all living inside X-Offs nightmare.

Imagine Kaka does an '07 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)

Then max will become "champions league winning coach Allegri". Then an extension would obviously be in order

Won't know if to celebrate or jump off a bridge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

It's one freaking long nightmare, then. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

It's the Champions League. I'd personally give Allegri the extension if we win it.

I can just see Muntari scoring a Hattrick in the final.
