CL | 1/8 Finals: FC Barcelona - Lyon 5-1 agg.

[Ahmedd]

This is the match of the year, if not the decade, for them. Lyon is an ambitious club that didn't have the chance to show what they are capable of for the past years. City and PSG was a good test for them, they won. Barcelona is better, we are stronger in CL and i think we we'll go through because second leg is at home. I'm watching french tv right now and they are waaay too confident, Lyon's players too apparently, it'll work against them. If they score quickly it could go very badly i think, Lyon love to play against big teams in front of their crowd. We just need to keep our heads straight and score. Doesn't matter if we lose tonight.

I think it will be in our favor if they come after us. It will be a much better match because they will expose themselves too. Give me Dembouz running at their defense!!!!

@ that midfield

i still think we'll win 0-2 or 1-3, weirdly confident

According to french tv medias we'll play with a Roberto - Busi - Rakitic mid
Also : Cornet won't play, it's a good info : Cornet destroyed City.

I think that might be the case, since Ernie called up Wague for the game.

According to Fernando Polo, Roberto will indeed be a CM while Semedo is a RB.

 

[viper76]

Ter Stegen; Semedo, Piqué, Lenglet, Alba; Busquets, Rakitic, Sergi Roberto; Messi, Suárez and Dembélé

I actually wouldn’t mind Roberto in the midfield over Vidal. Vidal way more impactful as a sub.

 

[Bulgroz]

For Lyon: Lopes - Dubois, Marcelo, Denayer, Mendy - Ndombele, Aouar - Traoré, Depay, Terrier - Dembele

Surprised not to see Tousart. He's clearly not as talented as Ndombele and Aouar, but he's much more defensive. Genesio is going all in for this game. I'd say 1-2 in the end, but Lyon is one of the hardest team to predict.

In the 0.01% chance that we lose (not going to happen though lmao) to these bums, rescind Rakitic and Roberto's contracts immediately.

We're going to send these farmers back to the potato fields.

Barça's last 5 away games in UCL knockouts: 0W, 1D, 4L. 1 goal scored, 13 goals conceded.

Roma 3-0 Barça
Chelsea 1-1 Barça
Juventus 3-0 Barça
PSG 4-0 Barça
Atlético 2-0 Barça

Amazing results

 

[soul24rage]

let's hope the Bob-Busi-Rakitic is better than the Vidal-Busi-Rakitic midifield.

So Dembele's back in the starting XI and Coutinho still can't get a sniff at CM.
