Not showing City v Juve?
 
The latest TV guide from C5 says they are.
They seem to be ruling with the punches.
Some big matches are not on Channel 5 including PSG v Atletico. The Juventus match is currently not showing on Channel 5 while other group matches in that round are there.

I downloaded in DAZN app onto my iPad and it works fine for the Al Ahly v Miami match. I will attempt to install the app on my TV tomorrow.
 
Kind of surprised to see Rodri in so many predicted XI's. I know he's been training with the squad for a little while now, but part of me thinks he won't even play in this tournament. I reckon Pep doesn't risk it even if the prize is however many tens of millions.

I have zero idea how we'll line up, but I don't imagine players who played a lot for their countries will start. I'll go with:

Ederson
Nunes Khusanov Stones O'Rieley
Nico Reijnders
Bobb Foden Savinho
Marmoush​

Very confusing so as this is the schedule I have seen.
Maybe they are waiting for the first 2 league rounds and then deciding on what 3rd match r to show.
 
Unashamedly excited for this with the new signings.

I don't think Rodri will get many starts but will get minutes off the bench in most games. Especially against the 'lesser teams' that we should piss.

Think Bobb will be given a proper chance, Pep has just watched a season of Savinho/Foden/Doku/Bernie so might use the CWC to give him more time - two birds, one stone to get him game time and see whether he's still as sharp as he showed last year.

I'm intrigued to see who starts in net too, out of Eddie and Ortega - I reckon it'll be a mix.


Eddie/Ortega

Lewis
Stones/Khusanov
Gvardiol/Dias
Ait-Nouri

Nico G/O'Reilly
Reijnders

Bobb
Haaland
Cherki
Marmoush


That's without Rodri, Akanji, Kovacic, Gundogan, Bernie, Savinho, Doku, Foden. I'll probably be missing some too.

The squad is bloated, think it'll be trimmed quite a bit before the start of the season.
 
Al Ahly are a very popular club in the middle-east. My Dad is Iraqi and told me that as a boy he used to follow Egyptian club football. The 2 major sides were Al Ahly and Zamalek and there was a lot of violence and huge crowds. The strongest impression I had of the opening game was that in the Inter Miami stadum, there were more Al Ahly fans than Miami fans I wonder whether there will be many Morroccan fans following Wydad. Less likely. I wonder whether this fan participation will be a one-off or whether it will be a feature of the CWC.
 
Does anyone know if the DAZN app is available through an Amazon firestick?
You can just watch it on the DAZN website but be careful you don't sign up to their premium plans. You can watch for free. I watched last nights game on Channel 5 because the coverage started an hour earlier and I just stuck with it.
