PSG vs Aston Villa - CL QF 1st leg - pre match thread

[Jon Crofts]

I'm nervous about the first leg. Not because going out at the Quarter Final stage is such a terrifying prospect, but because I really really want to experience all the fun of a Champions League Quarter Final at Villa Park, and it'll be way less fun if we go into the home leg 3-0 down. I think we'll lose 2-1 in Paris, which I think I'd take.

I wouldn't .
We need to be level or ahead coming to B6 .

Rubbish, Villa Park under the floodlights, Plastic Saint Germain will crumble.

[Nunkin1965]

Not nervous at all.

I have full confidence in the team and Unai.

We're winning away in Paris.

And that is a Smirker guarantee.

Brilliant post and this sort of game is made for our manager.
Really looking forward to seeing how it plays out but it certainly won't be finished after Wednesday.

 Just watched the UTV  YouTube video with a PSG fan. Very interesting and has made me absolutely buzzing for the game. Can't wait to see us come out to the champions league anthem in Paris.

Just hope we the the game to them.

Statement win in Paris. They're a great side. But we're better. Unai ain't losing this one.

Bit of nervs now, no-where near the play-off final though...something riding on that.

Brighton last week was the most nervous I've been before a game for a very long time.

Yep, been a while since I was this nervous two days before a game.

I was quite confident about that match.

[PaulTheVillan]

Just don't lose.

Think it will be 2-1. Need to stay within a goal. Type of game you wish you had 2 Kamaras sitting in front of the back 4. Picking the side is going to be horrible, but I reckon we can hit them on the counter. Rashford left, Rogers right for me.

There's an official half and half scarf being sold for this!

Vomit.

[London Villan]

I kind of get it for this match. It's arguably the highest profile match in our recent-ish (last 40 years) history...

[Duncan Shaw]

Had I decided to go to Paris and sit in the home end, I'd have probably bought a half and half scarf (even though I detest them) as it would have been one way of wearing Villa colours in the wrong end!

Think I'll wait and get the Villa/Madrid one instead.

The ONLY time I would even consider one of these monstrosities is for a cup final.... and even then, only if we WON.

I’ve still got my 82 Champions of Europe scarf….I’ll wait for the 2025 one.

At Dublin airport waiting for flight to Boovay.(Beauvais). Brilliant, just love it, thank you Unai.
