A lot has been said about our approach to the game, but what about theirs ? Didn’t they play away legs first against us Chelsea & PSG last season, and Liverpool/Chelsea this season. I know this isn’t new ground for them, but they might not open up as much as some are expecting, they are used to going away and opening up the game first, and turning it into a shootout, the fact they’re at home first combined with our improved game management & sturdier defence, could see it end up a cagey affair decided by moments of genius
 
Last season we should have been out of sight in the first leg, only injury to Walker Cancelo’s suspension gave us a huge Achilles heel. Stones injury didn’t help matters. Even still we should have been clear. We defended badly and were pretty profligate in attack. Only Vinicius’s pace and Benzema’s exceptional form kept them in the tie.

Real are still very strong but pretty inconsistent everywhere bar the champions league. Rodrygo and Vinicius have improved, they’ve added Rudiger so they shouldn’t be as open.

Even still if we can produce the level of performance last season while adding Haaland and defensive solidity then it should be good enough over the two legs.
