FC Copenhagen (A) - Tue 13th Feb, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

From Dallas or is it Dynasty?

Logierait, Perthshire - as Scottish as Big Dunc!

 

[BringBackSwales]

Ederson
Stones
Dias
Ake
Gvardiol
Rodri
De Bruyne
Foden
Bernardo
Grealish
Haaland

Although I like that team I would imagine a rested Kyle probably starts?

 

[Stoned Rose]

I’d go strong and look to get the tie dealt with before the home leg.

 

[Fordyboy46]

Ederson, Walker, Dias, Ake, Gvardiol, Rodri, Kovacic, Bernardo, De Bruyne, Foden, Haaland

Yeah I would imagine so as well mate, I’m just trying to get Stones in the team again ;-)

 

[Buckshaw Blue]

Got a feeling this might be tougher than some imagine. 2-1 City and hopefully avoid any injuries.

If they play anything like they did against the Rags in Copenhagen we will win by at least 3 goals.

In that match they were scared to come out of their own half until Rashford got sent off and basically they still should have lost if the rags were even half decent

They are also coming back from a long winter break

 

[Haaland94]

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Stones
Gvardiol
Rodri
De Bruyne
Foden
Bernardo
Grealish
Haaland

In many ways, team picks itself, and based on yesterday.

Looking forward to this. The lineup vs Time Wasters FC yesterday suggests we had one eye on this game and wanting to get a big advantage in the first leg and taking them seriously.

Copenhagen aren't bad at all, better than the sum of their parts I'd say, but we shouldn't have any problems, especially over two legs. It would be nice to have a healthy lead in the first leg though.

Looking forward to this
2pm flight tomorrow

Why do people say go strong or rest? In the CL Pep always plays a very strong team.

Copenagen are about Forest standard.

Copenhagen's home record in the Champions League is pretty incredible. It was only somewhat recently that their 'longest European streak without conceding multiple goals in a game' streak was broken.

---------------Ederson
Walker---Dias---Ake---Gvardiol
---------------Rodri
-------De Bruyne---Foden
Bernardo----Haaland------Grealish

 

[Ken92]

Hopefully we get it wrapped up as early as possible and get some rest in for Kev and Erling before Chelsea on saturday.

 

[dickie davies]

---------------Ederson
Walker---Dias---Stones---Gvardiol
------------------Rodri
-------De Bruyne---Bernardo
Foden------Haaland------Grealish

use Bernardo to create overloads out wide and Foden to drift inside occasionally

A very comfortable 4-0 win, with numerous players withdrawn before 80 minutes

That’s the side I would go for. Gives us control and creativity.

 

[uwe rosler 28]

Ederson

Walker
Akanji
Dias
Garvidol

Rodri
Foden
Kdb

Bernardo
Haaland
Grealish

Would be my guess

 

[Gundoggin]

Momentum is the word at this stage of the season isn’t it ;)

 

[Franny 1234]

In recent seasons peps aim as been don't lose your away leg. So I fancy another cleansheet undecided 2-0 or 3-0 City win. CTID

Not surprised by this stat.
I was at the game last season and the home atmosphere was incredible.
The fans were also very friendly before and after the game.
