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

So if we manage to get through I think this will likely be the team in any future rounds, with the exception of maybe Cancelo.

Barring KDB, this is our "safest" lineup in terms of ball retention. In particular, the front three all possess great first touches and are not the easiest to dispossess. Sterling, Jesus, and Aguero could all offer a more direct threat, but I think in this competition where every other team is potentially lethal on the counter our MO is going to be control the game at the expense of attacking impetus.

It's probably a smidge unambitious, but truthfully it's probably the safest. All as long as we aren't particularly wasteful in attack.

Strong team. Just think we’ll miss Jesus and when he comes on after 60 mins we’ll be like ‘Jesus made a difference’.

You really hate it when you don’t post the team first!

Zinchenkos lack of pace worries me.

Since when have City played with pace ?

Not much goal threat in that line up.... Nervous
