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

[willipp]

Shame the first full game live I get to see Haaland is against us. I’m hoping he isn’t really all that.

 

[I'm Blue]

Strong(est) starting lineup.
Let’s show Haaland the team he could be part of.

 

[deano ou812]

yea. Only played on the wing for Dortmund lighting quick and skillfull came on, on the weekend against frankfurt and tore frankfurts fullback apart when he had the ball, likes to run at players

Oh dear ..

 

[SWPISHOME]

no its normally Hazard instead of Knauff, but the youngster has impressed the dortmund bosses with his displays in the bundesliga its very surprising Knauff is starting

He only had 2 appearances in Bundesliga all season and that was both in their last two games as a substitute. 40 minutes in total.
Very strange he starts tonight. I hope he's fucking shit.

I’m not confident as most on here in that line up, Gabby for me is a huge miss

 

[kalouk]

No complaints at all with that team.

 

[hilts]

Based on the performances of the players this year that cannot be argued with. All on the players now. Play well keep your concentration.

This is the lineup I thought he'd do, but I think we are missing a trick not having someone like Sterling or Jesus who would run in behind their slow CB's and instead having Mahrez who IMO is the worst of the 5 at being the false 9.

Should be a great set up for Gundo to star in through.

I think Foden will play centrally or that system where both bernardo and KDB were false nine with Foden and Mahrez staying wide

 

[TonyM]

just heard that Mahrez is in goal. Pep tinkering again FFS.

Yeah winger, transfermarkt says he's only appeared in 3 Dortmund games this season totalling 44 mins! Got decent starts for Dortmund II though.

Thats why its a surprise hes starting, he did impress against frankfurt fast and skillfull, nearly always beat their fullback but doesnt track back.
