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

Is it just this house that still boo’s the champions league jingle on the TV ? (Can’t bring myself to call it an anthem)

Nope. Still do and always will. Though last time I did it frightened the cat.

But you wouldn’t take a 5-1?

I said I’d prefer a 4-0 win as at least if we concede 4 over there it would go to extra time :)

It’s a joke...everyone says it now

He posts the same thing in every pre-match thread. Think it’s just a ritual of his, regardless of the actual line-up.

Never can tell with the match forums ;)

It certainly is not a joke

Pep never fucking learns

Don't think there's much wrong with side he's picked tonight, all will be revealed shortly.

Better than wearing the same pair of unwashed undies I suppose

Go on then what’s he done wrong? Because over the season those have been our 11 most consistent players. The only one you could argue is Zinchenko over Walker.

Ali haaland he's a blue

Needs sacked

Pitch looks a bit ropey still

Nine of eleven correct.

I’m rather pleased with that.

You predicted the easiest 9, lol. My dead granny could have managed that.

Was about to say this, our pitch hasn’t looked great for quite a while now. Looks like it’s been relayed and it’s digging up easy in warm ups

 

[BlueCityfan]

Harsh of Jesus after his performance against Leicester. Could really do with his pressing.

 

[super_city_si]

Still 20 minutes. Fucking hurry up!

 

[Sir peace frog]

That has Foden as faster than Haaland vs PSG whose box to box run was fast enough where he could have competed in a world championship final.
And faster than Bale has ever been recorded
Then the numbers from that season have Fred even faster than that.. load of bollocks

im pretty certain phil jagielka was the fastest player in the prem one season, the stats are a bit deceiving, they clock how fast a player has run in a match not who is the fastest in reality(does that even make sense)

ie sterling is faster than phil but hasnt run faster in a match, haha im confusing myself now

Think it’s because we have the oldest turf in the league. No PL team has gone longer than us since last relaying the surface. But it’s getting done once the season finishes, so should be pristine next season.

Wary of Dortmund but going for 3-0. Our form will get us through this.
