Champions League Quarter Final Games 12-15th August

Btw Bayern play this high line against everyone when iv watched them in the bundesliga they always have this high of a line alows them to press high for the ball
 
Bayern look like a machine tbh and it’s going to be a massive ask to beat them but there defence can be got at but if we beat Lyon and that is a big if then we have to be as clinical as we can be.we need to make sure. We don’t waste our chances because if we are wasteful this team will destroy us . Barca look an absolute mess and Eric Garcia will be thinking I’m gonna be first team straight here .

He might be on the phone to Txiki asking please send me that contract to sign
 
That first goal knocked Barca's confidence. They've been shambolic since. Making Bayern look good imo.

Bayern are also there for the taking. Barcelona have lost the midfield battle. They can’t retain the ball (something Busquets and De Jong are lauded for; possession), and there’s no organisation at the back.

Their goals look like it’ll possible come from Alba, Messi or Suarez with the rest making up the numbers.
 
If that is the issue, then we haven’t got much chance considering how we tend to struggle against the dippers, (unless we pull off a masterclass). Lyon game comes first.
Watching Bayern bus worrying. They play like Liverpool. Except their midfielders are far better. They'll be a tough our for anyone.
 
We are better than Barca in every department except for having Messi but we play the same way and Bayern would attempt to do this to us as well. It might not be as easy for them but they’re certainly capable of sparking us too. It’s reminiscent of how Liverpool play against us, they’re not quite as good at the press but they’ve got better players all over the pitch. Pep would have to put in place some specialist tactics to get us through. Need to do the business against Lyon before we are concerned with that though.
 
In order to play such a high pace beautiful game you have to leave your defence vulnerable, this is nothing unexpected.
I dislike Bayern deeply but great credit to them with the way they play.
 
You are confident there will not be any referee indiscretions favouring Bayern in a UEFA CL final against City of all clubs (if we get past Lyon)?

I doff my cap to your confidence.
We have to be better than any bent refs can change the result of a game. I'm sure Pep will have the lads fired up, shout we dispose of Lyon first.

David Silva and De Bruyne masterclass beckoning; )
 
Keep hearing from the press that we are favourites - not sure how when you look at Bayern?
 
bayern played like this against dortmund, they rely on the pace of davies to get them out of trouble.We can exploit that high line massively
