Has any team ever won it without a striker?

Another first?

Pep won it with a false 9. Liverpool won it with Firmino.

Zinchenkos lack of pace worries me.

He's no slower than most of that XI

Agree with others regarding the lineup. All I ask is that Pep makes any changes with plenty of time for them to make a difference if it isn't working. Whether they be subs or tactical.

10 minutes in on the match day thread ‘ffs change it Pep it’s not working!

I can’t see us being allowed to progress no matter how good we are. You only have to look at the comedy spuds game.
UEFArce will want their cash cows RM & PSG in the final. They won’t want to risk us upsetting the applecart.

I was counting Messi,Mane,Salah as strikers? I guess they are just as much as Jesus.....oh well.

firming is not a false 9 but rather false brazilian lesbian.

Gonna miss the first half because of work so I'll wait until later tonight to watch it. Happy with that lineup though.

Line up looks like it is the one to hold onto the ball with some pace at the back too.
Fingers crossed we can score first!

That's a good word to use, 'expectant'.

Really are running out of excuses not to perform at this level, the players are more than good enough to create history this season.

We need a bit of luck as well, come on the Dolly Blues.
