That's why I'm so positive and enthusiastic about our Champions League aspirations and think our players will be brimming with confidence, drive and enthusiasm at the prospect of playing a game on a level playing field. A defender manhandles Mo or Mane in the Champions League, grabbing them and dragging them back, they might get away with doing it once, do it twice and they're in the book, then they can't do it again the rest of the game, as it should be
