We asked CJ staffers for some pre-match perfection and, like a sumptuous through ball, they delivered in style

Issue 13

1. For Whom the Bell Tolls by Metallica

One to get the feet stomping on the terraces. With Dane Lars Ulrich on the drums, it almost feels like a European away day. 

2. Theme from Sparta F.C. by The Fall

Both Chelsea and Galatasaray get a namecheck in this classic from the Manchester band, apparently written from the perspective of a Greek football fan.

3. Thunderstruck by AC/DC

We’ve had heavy metal and post-punk, so why not some rock? A good one if your team is the underdog, as it gives you the feeling you could run through walls. 

4. Hey Jude by The Beatles

A sharp change of tone here, but a welcome one. By the time everyone has joined in with the chorus, it won’t really matter what the result ends up being.

5. Let's Do It Again by Jamie XX

A modern flourish to finish, courtesy of a dance track recently released by Jamie XX. Given the title, it’s perfect for a season-ticket holder off to another game.
