I agree, Swansea are in good form at the moment. Wouldn't surprise me if we had another replay to be honest!
Since we played Juventus, they have played 3, won 3 and scored 3 goals. Conceded 0.
We have played 4, won 3, drew 1 and scored 11. Conceded 4.
Swansea have won 7 on the bounce now at home i think.. Since we played Juventus, they have played 3, won 3 and scored 3 goals. Conceded 0.

The Juve game will be fascinating, i think our result over there has probably given us the draw but Italian teams are renowned for tactical 1-0's.
All i do know is these are the nights ive been waiting the last 25 years for!
It all depends on which Spurs turns up. They've had a decent run of performances of late, especially at Wembley but they always have it in them to pull a woeful performance out of the bag at the worst possible time.
I can usually tell within the first 10 minutes which Spurs have turned up. If the good Spurs turns up, we will beat them but if we are even a bit below par, Juve definitely have the quality to pinch it.
Looks like Toby is still out but Verts should be back. I hope he plays Trippier plus Sanchez and leaves Aurier and Dier on the bench. Aurier is too reckless and Dier just looks tired and is making too many unforced errors.
I also hope he gives Moura a decent run out, I think he and Son could really hurt the Juve defence with their pace.

The Juve manager said that Spurs don't have as good a defence as Lazio, despite Spurs having conceded 10 less goals this season in a far harder league.
No matter, Spurs have got to play this game like they are a goal down from the first leg. Intensity will ensure Juve don't get a foothold.
Beating them would mean we've beaten both last seasons finalists.
However, get through this and the next round is going to be proper scary

Xhaka, blatant dive in the penalty box without being touched. Lets hope the FA look at that. They scream loud enough when Delli Alli gets tripped about how he's always diving.
Kolasinac should have been sent off. Went in for the hard challenge just a couple of minutes after complaining the Brighton player had fouled him. Already on a yellow from the first half, he wasn't going for the ball but the man, went in with shoulder/arm completely.

in fact the game im worried most about losing is actually Swansea in the cup.
This x lots.Juve is a lovely glory tie but lets be honest we are not going to win the Champions League this year.
The FA Cup is our best chance of silverware and Carvalhal has really turned things around for Swansea. Their spirit is good, they are playing decent football and they are getting results. We underestimate them at our peril.
How cool is this?!
