Yes. I don't Always complain :D. Last night cheered me up as we looked dead and buried but what a comeback from the boys restored some faith in some silverware this Season.

:buttrock.

We need to go on and finish the job now. It's our destiny.


Ajax, if we do lose again I don't want to lose to another English club, we'd never hear the end of it. Besides it's not the same when you play another English club in Europe, a bit of the romance goes out of it for some reason.

Definitely Ajax , the advantage we will have by being last years finalists will be negated playing another English club

Ajax, knocked out Real Madrid and Juventus along the way, could be a toughie that one, whereas spurs always give us a tough game.

Either way, we will have to be at our best to lift no 6.

Yeah , I hope Ajax get through, not a comment on the quality of Ajax or Spurs but if Spurs got through for me playing another Premiership side somehow takes away a bit of the sparkle of a truly European CL Final.

I'm a chicken, I'd rather have Spurs without Harry Kane and also going through a dip in form. Better the devil you know.

Ajax are a good young team, it'd be like playing ourselves to some extent.

Barca was never really challenged in Spain, at least not in the way we battered them yesterday with heart and sweat. Most team just looked at their team sheet and bow down expected to be rolled over. Our win yesterday will have them doing a lot of soul searching and quite possibly a rebuild in the coming months

Now we know why Real Madrid targeted Mo in last years CL final, to eliminate the heart of the machine. This year we descended on Barca like a swarm of bees and left them with no answer.

I don't want to lose this now.. I remember the big comeback vs Dortmund a couple of years ago and the devastating loss in the final. We can't let that happen again.

Ive enjoyed watching Ajax they are a good young team.. But I think we can run them straight over.

I don't want Spurs.. They show up one every 3 games and it would be our luck that they turn up against us.

Spurs dumped Man City out, and would give us a more tough physical game, like a premiership game, I would prefer Ajax myself.

They are a good side, but I feel we can steam roller them if we come out at a high tempo and pressing etc.

I hope we do it..

Spurs or either Ajax makes no difference as both have qualities thay could give any team a good match. Both could be tough but i think we will be too much for them and also to add we've got a side that has been there before. Ajax or Spurs will have final jitters, our lads will be more composed.

With Big Mo back for the final who replaces Bobby and is Divock back on the bench? Is Shaq the Bobby stand in?

I wanted Spurs to win tonight just because we get to wear red for the Final

I wanted Ajax to win tonight just because it will feel like a proper European final
