I love Leah being grumpy over her name. Whenever I read Emilia, my head sings it to the tune of Oh Cecila.

Emilia, you're saving our hearts,

You're shaking their defence daily,

Oh, Emilia, we're up on our feet,

Loving you more than you kno-ow!

listen here

i actually love this - this is such a great chant for her as well

Poor Alessia, she can't leave them alone for five minutes without something happening

Emy always shuffles into the room where they're filming and tries to clamber onto the couch with them, she doesn't quite understand that her mums don't want her face being seen and there's outtakes upon outtakes of Leah trying to bribe Emy to leave the room

Emy wins. She hides her face or something purely so she can stay with them

often there's so smart cropping because emy is snuggled up against tooney or lessi. other times leah puts her in a dino costume/onesie or something that completely covers her face with only little eye holes so people can't see what she looks like but mostly they just crop it or release video clips with emy in and the rest is in a podcast format. emy doesn't really understand the difference between cameras like she allowed in a camera when her mums and their friends are holding it but not any other time. she doesn't quite get it until she's older and that's why they hide her face because she can't grasp the impact of it being shown

After the announcement of Tooney and Lessi having a podcast coming out, imagine little Emy interrupting and just rambling to Lessi and her auntie Tooney 😭😭

her face is kept hidden but alessia will hand her the microphone... there is a ten minute segment in one podcast episode of ella just trying to coax emy to say tooney and she just keeps repeating mama mama mama mama almost as if to taunt ella

after the spurs incident, alessia leaves the room for five minutes and there's outtakes of ella finding emy and getting her to say it again with leah cheering in the background. alessia finds it too awkward to watch herself so she only finds out when asked about it in a press conference and sighs and says it's like she has three children not one sometimes

we're back at it because barça stressing me out man so...

my optimal barça line-up and game plan (v ch*lsea)

warning: controversial BUT i justify all my choices

yeah i forgot to change keira's number and made a typo in paralluelo sorry

My Game Plan:

Okay, first of all, if Graham Hansen is not fully healed. I want and need this instead and because I cannot have a conversation with medical staff, I will be justifying both of these line-ups.

The Wings:

Left: Ona Batlle and Salma Paralleulo

I think one of Jona's big mistakes last weekend was not having these two on the same wing. It has been deadly all season down that left-hand side for both Spain and Barcelona. It is better on the left but I also will take it on the right-hand side, especially, if Graham Hansen is injured and Rolfö is playing in place of Bronze.

The combo of both their speed is almost impossible any defender to handle and if you think about the Ch*lsea back four that H*yes is likely to put it, their speed combination will be difficult for Charles or Carter to handle as their speed historically has not been able to match the speed of Paralleulo and Batlle. Ultimately, Barcelona's best chances on the weekend came from fast counter attacks and speed getting into the box and, from the past, we know that is something that Paralluelo and Batlle can reliably combine to do either down the left or the right (down the right if Rolfö and Pina are playing)

Right: Lucy Bronze and Caroline Graham Hansen (if fit) / Fridolina Rolfö and Claudia Pina

Honestly, the primary motivation for picking Bronze and Graham Hansen as the preferred starting players is because I would prefer to see Batlle and Paralleulo on the left, however, I am pretty flexible on this wing and would like the fittest players to play and it's obvious that Graham Hansen has been dealing with some sort of injury. If Bronze and Graham Hansen start, I want to see them subbed off for Rolfö and Pina and vice versa.

Ultimately, Rolfö and Graham Hansen did not link up well on the wing last weekend and due to injuries they haven't had much time to gel. The better partnerships and pairings in my opinion are Rolfö and Pina and Bronze and Graham Hansen. Bronze was one of the best players as a sub on the weekend and has a lot of experience in these situations and against Chelsea, I think it would be good to use her.

The Defence:

Goalkeeper: Cata Coll

The obvious choice, clearly, the stronger Barcelona goalkeeper at the moment. Confident with her ball at her feet and a good ball-playing keeper with the ability to come out of her goal and act as an eleventh outfield player to overload a Ch*lsea midfield and progress play down the pitch.

Centrebacks: Irene Parades and Ingrid Engen

Taking Ingrid Engen off the pitch at the weekend was a crime, she was the best player and I think if she plays like that again, the only way she is coming off the pitch is surrounded by a medical team. I am serious, she is so fucking good and underrated. Her and Parades are also the strongest centreback pairing that Barcelona has put out all season, there is no doubt in my mind about this and judging my who Jona is resting and playing, there is no doubt in his mind either.

The Midfield/Forwards:

Defensive Midfielder: Keira Walsh

Solid for club and for country in every match. Most underrated player on the pitch and one of, if not, the best defensive midfielder in the world in terms of her ball recovery and blocking the passes. It was clear that Ch*lsea's tactic was too partially mark her out of the game and she needs to be brought into the game more likely by Engen overloading the midfield as an extra player with some forward movement out of the backline.

Central: Alexia Putellas, Aitana Bonmatí and Mariona Caldentey

Alexia and Bonmatí were two of the best players on the pitch on the weekend. They have so much combined experience and talent and are a deadly midfield pairing in the centre of the park. Alexia should've started on the weekend, she changed the game when she came on but there is only so much one player can do. Both she and Aitana have a bad match and come back better and fighting. They live and breathe Blaugrana and seemingly contrary to popular belief play really well together. Their combined fluidity allows each other to have a lot of freedom in the midfield.

Mariona is the strongest choice in that central position. She is best placed as a nine or false nine other than the wing that Jona had her play on the weekend. That position can also be fluid with her ability to drop into the midfield and Alexia's talent or playing that false nine position. She is better at being in the box and finishing chances than anyone else on the team and has a talent for creating space.

I would like to see Patri, Brugts and Vicky come on into the forward/midfield line as subsitutes but given the match could be 90 or 120 minutes, I don't want to apply exact timing as to when those substitutes should be made as that would depend on how the game is going and how it needs to managed.

Due to the fact, I will be in the stadium (in the home end (undercover and still firmly hating Ch*lsea)), I will not provide updates about the subs I think should be made. Only the friends who will likely regret going with me will hear my wonderful commentary and yapping on a level that has the ability to compete with Mapi Leon. But I am taking my camera so you will be all be blessed with some pics (if they are any good).

does emy have a chant??? 👀

(i am the best at chant creation at all but...)

when she makes her debut, it's a bit of a surprise so the fans go for the classic "she's one of our own" because she really is... leah just has one problem with the chant

SHE'S ONE OF OUR OWN, SHE'S ONE OF OUR OWN, EMY RUSSO, SHE'S ONE OF OUR OWN

there weren't enough syllables to get russo-williamson and make it sound good. leah is a little grumpy until someone reminds her that it's her chant they are repurposing (she doesn't remember it's a very common footie chant till a lot later she's too distracted by emy's debut) they also do the classic (and kim's chant)

emy emy emy OI OI OI emy OI emy OI emy emy emy OI OI OI

Lotte calling Emirates stadium 'the Emi' in her most recent insta.

After all the Arsenal baby clothes and toys, how long is it till Leah oh-so-casually mentions that Emy could be short for Emirates - mostly because she know the suggestion will make Alessia SO annoyed.

i feel like leah doesn't make the link until lotte casually calls the emirates the 'emi' one day on the coach and alessia just turns and glares leah, asking her if this was her plan and leah has her hands in the air arguing that she didn't even think of it (but this would be a perfect excuse to find a baby safe model of the emirates for emy's room because obviously the lego wouldn't be appropriate for babies)

(matty's favourite instrument is the drums because of a gag gift by katie)

Ha unfortunately nothing that cool. Although I do know Jodie, and in my mind use her for the six degrees of separation to Leah (I know Jodie, Jodie worked with Olivia Coleman on Broadchurch, Olivia Coleman was on Graham Norton with Leah 🙈)

It's just in reference to 99p tesco ham sandwich no mayo 🤓

valid that makes sense... 99p ham sandwich i miss you
