Bayern Munich (H) - Tues 11th April, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Constantine]

How could he have disagreed with my analysis of why Pep may not have played him tonight “more often”?

Never mind. I feel he will have a big role in this tie anyway.

 

[Bald fraud]

I am nervous

Yep

 

[mccity]

Interestingly, no Muller for Bayern.

 

[grim up north]

I don't know if am alone in this , who actually rates Akanji I dont have nothing against him but seen he can't win duels in the Liverpool game he let Jota turn him but Dias came to the rescue to make the block .

It was 4~1

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Mahrez played himself out at the weekend, possibly.

Looks like we are wedded to this new system and why not, it's pretty fucking effective.

They are clearly wanting to isolate our full-back areas, but we don't need to get dragged out and they can't hurt us if they don't have the ball.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Forlorn.

 

[Elliot houghton]

Does anyone think we may have to go long tonite and turn em around, instead of our usual playing out from the back…

Keeping it on floor probably be best option

Surprised Mahrez has been left out , he likes this cup and a big game player ,but Bernardo is a brilliant replacement and will hound the Bayern midfield and chase their coach all the way back to the airport after the game. Bring the German's on.

No qualms with either of them starting. Both give superb control. Bernardo probably a little fresher and bitier of the two

 

[Skyblue98]

What’s not true?

That they dislike Pavard

 

[It'sBlue93:20]

Forlorn.

I’ve never heard a better time to say the phrases “the grass isn’t always greener on the other side” than now
