Champions League Knockout Stage

[Epictetus]

Those Rice free kicks, holy

We are incredibly stupid if we sell him.

Not necessarily. I would say it depends most on who replaces Ancelotti and what they want to do. It might also depend on whether or not they bring in another midfielder as well. Regardless of that though and just considering the situation as things stand now, he’s literally a rotational player for you and he’s on big wages. In addition to that you didn’t pay a lot for him either. At the end of the day it should come down to him either being a regular or not. If he’s not and you get a good offer, then I can see a case for selling.

Not a £100M player, they said…

I don’t recall saying that, but I’ll say it now. Not a 100m player in today’s market if you ask me.

Fair point. I guess I am biased because I like the player and his potential.

He’s a top 2 midfielder in the world

 

[Evilo]

He'd be what, fifth choice?

As a 6 he'd be 1st choice.

 

[Evilo]

I was one of those who thought you should not give up 100M for a CM.
And as wonderful as those 2 FK were I didn't change my mind.

Luis Enrique isn't dropping his boy Fabian and you know it. Anyway, do PSG even use a number 6? Their midfield looks like 3 number 8s to me.

 

[TheGreatPandasage]

I did not expect Rice to smash two amazing free kicks like that. Arteta should take the duty away from Odergard and have Biryani Beckham take them from now on.

Vitinha is playing 6. He's awesome and one of the very best midfielders in the world (if not the best really).
But he's better at 8 IMO. Ruiz is not good enough, everyone knows it.

 

[Evilo]

Not PSG's problem anymore

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

One day they’ll understand that these games don’t have to be the same time

 

[luiginb]

Dortmund in the end missing just 3 players. I still don't like that midfield with Fermin and Frenkie, but with Casado and Olmo out we have no choice.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Yamal looks electric once again today

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Yamal looks electric once again today

He missed a wide open lewa

 

[Evilo]

If Kvara doesn't go up it's a pen.

 

[luiginb]

Yamal looks electric once again today

Is it just me or did he add Iniesta's "elastico" to his arsenal of dribbles?

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

My favourite cube it was coming

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I think Raphina scored and he might’ve been offside

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

f*** me raphina

 

[gary69]

Raphinha touched the ball on the goalline, when the ball was already going in. Avoided being offside by a slim margin.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Honestly that looks offside, replay shows he’s on side

 

[JoVel]

Raphinha is pretty lucky to not look like an idiot right now.

 

[Evilo]

Bad turnover by Mendes and Villa scores on their first shot. Very Pool like.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Some useless trees in dortmund

 

[Evilo]

Golden boy Doue scores a screamer to tie it.
