Paris Saint-Germain (H) - CL SF | Pre-Match Thread

[Fordyboy46]

All I ask is that we actually start playing from the word go for once, we can't waste another 45 mins on the back foot like we did last week in Paris, we have to be on it from the first whistle. I think there will be goals in this second leg so will go for a 2-2, City are in the final.

Ederson, Walker, Zinchenko, Dias, Stones, Rodri, Gundogan, Mahrez, Bernardo, De Bruyne, Foden.

Come on boys make history

How many players (or who) are one booking away from missing the final?

Don’t they get wiped unless it’s a straight red?

----------------Ederson
Walker---Stones---Dias---Zinchenko
-----------------Rodri
--------Bernardo----Gundogan
Mahrez------De Bruyne--------Foden

Good to know we've got a sharp Sergio and Fernandinho on the bench.

I'd start this line up but in a slightly different formation

Bernardo and KDB sitting deep as the legs to help Rodri
Gundogan in the number 10 role
Foden and Mahrez pushed further up field as wide forwards with the license to roam

Believe me, I’m well aware of the maths. My point is that conceding two (or more) is the only thing that can fuck us, scoring first makes only a small difference to that. I won’t feel warm and snuggly inside heading into extra time.

Also, “overtime” get the fuck out of here.

Looking at how PSG tired (before they were reduced to 10) 30 minutes overtime wouldn't be the worst outcome

None, all are wiped for the Final

I’m a little surprised that Fernandinho is starting this one. I hope it’s instead of Rodri and not alongside him. If we go more defensive we are asking for trouble. Just play our normal game. It wins the overwhelming majority of matches.

I’m a little surprised that Fernandinho is starting this one.

He isn't likely to start though.

Rodri stayed to help to defend set pieces and long balls, Ake and Dinho aren't the tallest players.

Gundogan played 3 games within a week: Villa, Spurs and PSG. Rodri can play 3 games as well, he is relatively young and recovers quickly.

Same again

If chasing result, Jesus ,Aguero , Sterling in
but who to come out
hard to pick
