Ruben's Uncle Arthur is reffing but one of the liners might be suspect.

I would say it depends on what side Cancelo plays, as he spends most time in midfield alongside Rodri. If Cancelo plays RB, a right-footed CB is needed to cover, if LB - a left-footed CB. Zin's/Walker's presence is merely a consequence of Cancelo's position (at least in big games, when the strongest 11 is chosen)

Of course. If ZInchenko and Cancelo play, we can be assured that Cancelo will be at RB. And if Walker and Cancelo play, then we can presume Cancelo is at LB. Hence why I wrote what I did.
I apologise for not stating it, but what you said was assumed in my original post.

This will be a hard game remember these lot beat an inform Bayern.

Indeed I’m quite cautious over this game,they may be having a bit of a dip in form,but they raise their game for the big matches,I’ve a feeling this game is gonna be a lot closer than some think .

delighted with that München Gladbach team - i don’t know any of them

Hopefully you won't know any of them after the game as well!

This competition always gives me that sinking feeling that we are going to get f*cked by the officials.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Hopefully left

Hopefully right flank. That's his best out wide IMO.

You’re forgetting that emotions happen when watching on tele, and watching on tele can be extremely frustrating.

The match threads are nowhere near as bad as being in the stadium, fans come out with some mental stuff in the ground, but everyone knows it’s just emotions.

I have mentioned it before it's anxiety, nerves and frustration, it has to be released somewhere. The players don't hear it so no problem. At the game we'd turn that anxiety into shouts to get behind the team, at the moment we can't.

No injuries a Sergio goal and 3-0 cmon blues

This will be a hard game remember these lot beat an inform Bayern.

As pointed out earlier they have 5 points in their last 5 games, so should be nothing to really
fear.

Monchengladbach is playing the exact same formation that beat Dortmund 4-2 late January
