Borussia Dortmund (A) - CL QF | Post-Match Thread

I mean we have a striker.

But beyond that, yes, a second player to be a striker who has a knack of scoring many goals would be beneficial in many ways. But we don't NEED anything. We're on the verge of winning our 3rd league title (and possibly trophies galore) with a midfielder at LB. The idea of basic positional roles is not as rigid as it used to be with Pep as manager.
Yea we are doing awesomely but yes we do need another sticker. The 2 things aren’t mutually exclusive
 
Bellingham this, Bellingham that, blah blah blah. He was so good they took him off! Great performance once they had scored. Not sure we knew what to do before but once we went behind we were immense. They barely had an attack second half whilst we just kept on coming. PSG will be a big test and a lot depends on who is fit. I assume that given we play on the Sunday against Spurs that the first leg will be the Wednesday. Next up Chelsea and don’t be surprised if Pep rings the chNges again to keep players fresh.
 
first leg already on 27th or 28th of April, we start away from home.

Chelsea (FA semis), Villa, Spurs (Carabao final) until then, quite busy as usual.
 
English lad decides exciting, high quality QF tie, scoring the key goal in both legs, delivering two performances of outstanding skill and verve... culminating in an emotional moment between him and his coach, Europe's best.

So why do I have the feeling the big story tomorrow will be Liverpool going out of a tie they were never in, after a dull 0-0 at home?
Well we definitely know the dipper scum smashing up Madrid’s bus won’t be.

He was excellent over both legs to be fair, i would have him starting alongside Mount for England this summer with Phil on one of the wings.
 
No but it does mean we rest players v Chelsea on Sat
I can see us resting them against Villa.
To be honest apart from the performance against Leeds any player who starts should be good enough to get results.
Sterling, Torres, Cancelo, Fernandinho Laporte, Ake, Jesus could all feel that they should be starting more regularly.
 
If he doesn't put his arm out the ball goes passed him. Can knew what he was doing. More a penalty than most.
Was watching it with my stepfather on zoom who's the most biased blue in the world and he didn't see it straight off but I was screaming penalty looking at the line of his arm. I was right, ref was right, VAR was right.
