Champions League thread

Heard he was 14.

 

This was probably the most difficult team we could get, but over two legs we should be better than them. They've also lost their two best players this summer, both to Bayern, so they have been weakened since finishing 4th last year. Also they're one week behind us as their season starts one week later - and Jurgen should know them really well.

 

Have a good feeling about this. Which isnt really a good thing, as we tend to cock it up vs "lesser" teams.

Beatable, but tough enough to make sure we don't get complacent.

 

I'm happy with that draw.  It's not 'Offen'eim this confident.

Vhat vill be ze score? Nein nil?

Need to be sharp for this. I'm confident in us going forward. Firming will be up for it and Salah and Mane look fantastic. We will put some sort of decent midfield out whoever gets the nod. And now the defence. Erm. Nervous about them to be honest.

 

Still think we will go through, but without a good back line to build from it adds more pressure to the forward line. Come on you reds!

 

4-1 on aggregate.

If we defend properly we'll have far too much for these going forward. It won't be a walk in the park, but we should win.

 

We've got a good side with a really good front four.

 

We've got a top manager who knows the Bundesliga inside out.

 

And we've got players who have a lot of experience playing in Germany and against Hoffenheim as well.

 

The 2nd leg is at Anfield under the lights as well. Should be a cracking game.

 

They should be fearing us more than us fearing them.

I think we tend to overlook this.  Because we've failed to sign van Dijk and Keita (or anyone else to strengthen those positions) there's a tendency to focus on the negatives and assume that we're shit.

 

We're not.
