neil neil though would put a seam allowance and that makes barclays game plan straightforward. as well but the most important of all i think this is the most important game so far this year because if we want to remain in the champions league we need to win this is a final nor room for mistakes and it is difficult to manage stars because we score first we need to persist and score more goals with a run the result yourself in every single moment so you don't need to attack a lot but also remain vigilant in our area. but when i got another taste of the new camp during a training session on monday the last time they were here was in september when they treat c c with barcelona in the group stage and their captain is demanding another brave performance from his team mates. to morrow's game will have to be pushed the courage because that is you only way to face barcelona the face them one needs the game position of the ball and all the rest comes in second place to come to the stadium and face barcelona with bravery is the first thing to do in football to anything could happen and it's important that she says of the quarter final dynamic host marsay the german side they clear favorites for the two goal advantage from the first leg and they're in a rich vein of form after winning their last seven games however they will be without the suspended bastian schweinsteiger and their coach thanks it's where they're not three me yet. run assistance is roman from the results from the first leg is good but we haven't reached the next round yet i mean to be just like we scored two must see if they can score here so we have to sleep very focused will have to show the same quality as in the last game of it over the last few weeks and then i'm sure we'll get into the next round some of us have our own we want to but whatever he says not say have it all today they are only a terrible run of results and i mean having lost eight of their last nine games however their league game against montpellier last last weekend was suspended to allow them proof to prepare for this day i managed to get here to show i'm still believed this day and cause an upset. silverfish actually get chosen if we want to achieve something all parts of the team have to play at their limit and you both collectively and individually like an average match but have our ideas of what we would like to do but of course we have to implement those norms are failing. clearly martin the talian city a footballer has been arrested as part of an ongoing investigation into match fixing has landed defender and their massey yellow was taken to a bar in cross you can use his office yesterday and italian prosecutors say eight of his former barry teammates are also under investigation barry's last nine matches in syria last season are being looked into including the darby in which the c.l.o. own goal helped elect cheney win to neil to avoid relegation news agency and say claims he scored it on purpose in return for one hundred eighty pounds and your rights. elsewhere as a golf fans have had a sneak preview with the stars preparing for this week's masters at all gus that is the first major of the year for time champion tiger woods is considered the favorite again after recently getting his first win on the p.g.a. tour for over two years he knows the course well and the hot warm conditions are likely to suit him although fellow american bubba watson believes any one of five could win this year's green jacket as we know over the last three years anybody has a chance they've been in one and if they're playing well there's about five guys at one point great all year obviously with tiger just winning titles will be up there again everyone is going to cheer for tiger tiger knows this course pretty well it's another course he's won a few times so obviously he's going to be appearing at least there's about five guys that
