Champions League 2021/22 | Group E

Really depends on what level is Kiev, in the past we brush them aside, I imagine not anymore even though I just have no idea on them

If Fati is not in we will be unbalanced again, but seems like we got both Alba n Dest flying, and Depay looking good last good too, n I imagine Aguero should feature so we should be able to get the goals we need. That leaves our defending which basically has been leaking goals n chances as usual, but at home I think we should get it done.

Nvm Garcia is suspended. Completely forgot. Will be super fresh for Sunday then

Definitely Hans, u r so loaded, Sabizter looked good in this game n hes only managed few appearance Same as Coman... I priase this kid becos hes consistently been limited in playing time at Bayern but always willing to accept that n perform whenever hes asked to.

Power n talent combined, plus Nagelsmann looking like getting things up to speed now right? Dont see any weakness except maybe Bayern can be too attacking at times n the backline still a bit vulnerable at times? Otherwise a scary team, 4-0 rapage away at Benfica is no joke.

For us it was a snoozefest, Kiev's level were like 4th tire league team wtf... literally no threat throughout the game. We still only managed 1-0 lol... not sure if they are able to raise their game a couple of levels at least at home, otherwise it should be another 3 easy points for us then.

So dominant they play without a keeper

You keep conceding a lot though

Hans's nephew has injected the vigour in our lethargic attack. Huge difference in quality.Too bad he won't be there entire season.

Already knew Barca would make it through. Nonsense to believe they would be eliminated. Just win against Benfica and thats it

Easier said than done.

Wouldnt be so sure... If benfica win at kiev and hold us out to a draw, they're through.

Absolutely plausible.

Sadly I believe that's the most likely scenario....since we can't score for shit

Dembele instantly improves our game but will that be enough? Defense is still like swiss cheese and no striker up front

You can't count on Dembele at all.

We cant count on none of ansu, dembele, depay. Our entire attack is uncountable

Do some ppl still dont realize we arent even Benfica level? They will beat us if they play their best n us our best. The only hope we have is somehow they got held by Kiev. This game show just how much difference Kiev are at home, they were much more ambitious and completely felt like another team compared with the one at Camp Nou. We were bit lucky to win the 1-0 tbh. They let Mingueza make countless crosses in and it finally led to the goal, otherwise they actually made more chance than us lol...

Anyway, everything will depend on if we can beat Benfica which I dont think we can

I hope Barca goes through for many reasons.

Goals in 4 games so far

Lewandowski: 8
FC Barcelona: 2

instant coffee

I'll wait at least until Xavi is sacked but keep the door ajar

Man watching Coman in that Bayern game...

There's just something about playing a traditional 1v1 winger on the side of his stronger foot. Seeing an explosive right-footed player go 1v1 and get past his LB time after time then put in a low cross is so effective. I prefer watching that than seeing all these inside forwards cut in every chance they get nowadays.

So the big game tonight, what does everyone think? Can Barca beat Benfica? Personally I think it would be a bit of Xavi miracle already if we do I dont see we would since we just cant score atm...
