LOL at farmers league nonsense. Their attack will run you guys over if they're up for it. Dortmund cant defend for their life. Only hope in stopping the attack is if they all have a **** game. You will score goals as well but not more than PSG.

Dortmund would easily beat PSG if they put on Balerdi, they'd ask take the CL in a cake walk but they dont want to.

There is a big difference between home and away games for Dortmund. I doubt anyone will run Dortmund over in the home ground. They should have won against Barca and won against Inter in the group stage.
To miss Brandts playmaking ability is a big loss. But i liked Can alot in the few games he played for Borussia. He can stabalize the defense and is a leader on the pitch. Thats was one of Dortmunds biggest issues.

So it looks like they’re going for control with Fabinho playing.

I’m fine with it. That midfield can hold it down and the front three should create a few chances. Bring in Keita or Ox at 65 if it’s even, Origi if it’s behind or Milner to ease it out if it’s a situation where Liverpool already has the away goal.

I think this is a misconception. Fabinho is more offensive from the holding role than anyone else we have there, and we concede more goals than when anyone else plays there.

I think Liverpool play to control most games anyway, but Fabinho being included isn't the indicator for that given his effect on the team (not saying it's bad).

How long is the stupid BR contract for CL? They should be banned from airing any games ever again. Analysts are shit, they play no games, and they suck.
