Its noticeable that we are a lot more direct in out play in this game. Stats show so far Borussia haev 55% possession. I expect this is how we will play against the scousers. Just gos to show how dilligent pep is in his preperation.

One thing I have noticed is the backline needs to be very careful with heading long balls back towards midfield. A few times just cutting out a long ball ends with the ball at their attackers, with our midfield further up from pressing them. Leaves us a little vulnerable if they get a lucky drop of the ball.

Fuck me Gundogan looks good

 

[Jazzman]

Besides talking about how much our players cost the german tv commentator is very impressed with our pressing. City is a pressing machine he says :-)

Bravo is cool on the ball. Thinks nothing of running towards their striker with the ball. Dangerous maybe but does give us the extra man. I like it.

The announcer on the international commentary is pronouncing Gündogan not at all how I thought it was pronounced nor how I've heard other people pronounce it.

How do you properly say his name?
