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

The egregious Simon Stone: 'How much do you believe in your players?'
Pep: 'After 27 wins in 29 games if I don't trust the players we have a big-big problem. I would be crazy.'
LMFAO

Why are we not going with Delap as fall back strike option? Atleast should be part of travelling party

As Victor Meldrew would say
" I don’t believe it"

That was all mind games earlier by their manager then ... saying these two are doubtful as well alongside Sancho being out.

Any news on which ref we got?

It's always there in the first post of the pre-match threads, in the header above the time zone map just below the match date and time.

And although it's a Madrid based ref, and remembered more for who gave Otta a red and two pens to Schalke in the same game ... here's a rather positive stat to cling on to ...

Hummels only went off with an upset tum, and Reus got a bit of a dead leg. They were always going to play

I'm gonna predict another crazy CL night with City having to fight back from being 2 goals down after 10 minutes. Ederson to score the winner on pens ! Enjoy the ride.

I'd be happy if Ederson just saved a penalty

 

[SWPISHOME]

I'd be happy if Ederson just saved a penalty

I'd be happy if we dont concede a penalty.

Foden was brilliant last week hopefully he shows the same form tomorrow night. Even though he got the winner I’d say he’s still gutted he missed that chance at 1-0. He’s generally one of, if not the best finisher we have.

Difficult as tomorrow night will be, if we take our chances we’ll win. We didn’t finish well in the home leg or on Saturday so we have to remedy it tomorrow night.

Foden did give the Dortmund right back nightmares last week!

Reus is class and would be a huge miss for them.

Hummels to if its true

ah- looks like both will play
