Didn't we beat PSG last year , everyone thinks we should have beaten chelsea, Bayern we don't know because they didn't get as far as us in it.So yes, we could.
Credit to Bayern for staying true to their attacking style in the Q/F despite being without Lewandowski. If only Pep would relax in these one-off games and trust in his squad.Bayern did not have Lewy for the matches against PSG + what is probably as important, two other players with the edge in the box (Gnabry + Goretzka) weren't available either and replaced by players that might be as or even more creative but with less firepower. (I actually think that Choupo-Moteng did a decent job. But he is not Lewy - and I think that you always need to have the balance between creativity and firepower in the offense, too). That was especially important for the first match.
In the second match you saw the fatigue from key players, too, that had to play through the recent matches that weren't easy because there weren't any decent replacements available in the other matches.
That's all true but it doesn't change how good we were for most of last season without a striker, I expect we will have one next year, but we would also do okay if we don't. It's the doing down of what we achieved last year, and how good our current squad is without a striker that gets on my tits.Bayern did not have Lewy for the matches against PSG + what is probably as important, two other players with the edge in the box (Gnabry + Goretzka) weren't available either and replaced by players that might be as or even more creative but with less firepower.

I think Ake might have gone but I don't think Spurs would be interested now as they have bought a centre-back.No hes not.
Not a chance anyone is leaving City and going to the spuds.
Yes. And if I were City, I wouldn’t be keen to release him )unless he was acting the brat).Is Laporte that desperate to go that he'd sign for Spurs? As impressed as I was with Stones last season, we have no idea if that was a one off, and if you were Laporte would you not just be waiting for your opportunity??
Reports suggested SPurs prevaricated for Martinez and never came close to Inters valuation. That sounds very Levy-like to me.Spurs are desperate to tie up a deal for another striker before selling Kane. Problem they've got is nobody decent wants to join Spursy. Although with Inter Milan in liquidation Martinez may not have a choice. Can see Vlahovic staying at Fiorentina for another year on an improved contract with a decent sized buy out.
