We try and predict Enzo Maresca’s starting XI for the round of 16 first leg tie. Elsewhere, we take a deep-dive into Simon and Liam’s big read about the club’s efforts to get over their recent slump - and the role that some of the senior figures have played in uniting the young squad.Over in the WSL, it was an incident-filled 2-2 draw for Sonia Bompastor’s side against Brighton on Sunday. Jessy Parker Humphreys was there to witness Naomi Girma’s long-awaited debut. We’ll be back on Friday to run the rule over whatever happens in Denmark AND to look ahead to Sunday’s visit of Leicester City. HOST: Matt Davies-AdamsWITH: Simon Johnson, Liam Twomey & Jessy Parker HumphreysPRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Hosted on Acast.
