Dortmund (H) - CL QF | Pre-Match Thread

Today the team should play like it’s the 2nd leg. I hate the slow starts to the 1st legs. It hurt us against Spurs and Lyon. If City was more brave they would of won both them ties.

Be confident that we are better then Dortmund and out score them in both legs.

It's dead easy to score goals on the counter when you're allowed to be offside.
Luckily, you're not.

*Unless you play in red and are part of the G14.

Anyone think playing Jesus in these games would be a good idea? - he would have a point to prove playing against the team containing many people's favourite for the main striking role at City.

I think it would be a good idea as he's one of our most effective and in form players.

If we were waiting for the second leg to start playing against Lyon, that would explain a lot.

Going to be “Brass Monkey’s” at the stadium tonight, the weather is not at all spring like.

Agreed. Fabulous display from him again in Saturday. People need to start realising what Gabby brings to the side, His movement creating spaces for his team mates. On top of all that he does chip in with his fair share of goals, He has a good goalscoring record.

Not followed any German football this year, other than the marauding Viking up front and with Sancho out who else should I be getting nervous about in their team ?

No one special. Their spirit maybe.
They've nothing to lose, at least that's what they try to believe.

I hope we boss them like we did with the other Borussia.

MediaCity sports staff prepare to watch their only local team in the champions league play a crucial quarterfinal

Weather atrocious. Hope it clears up a bit for the match.

We should be good enough to beat these over 2 legs. I said the same about Lyon last season mind you. I think we are much stronger this season though, so barring anything catastrophic I think that we will win by a couple of goals tonight.

Sadly we only played Lyon in a one-legged affair
