So that Woltemade guy isn’t even starting? Lots of speed and strength in their line-up, though. Will be a very interesting match. Wouldn’t surprise me if we got trashed considering our record at this kind of hostile ground outside of Spain.
Yeah Barca's away record and Newcastle's physicality make me worry for Barca.

But football doesn't always work that way. Let's see what happens tonight.

Although it has to be said that we have improved drastically under Flick in those games as we saw in the CL last season.


Woltemade is slow. Howe went for pace on counter. Looks like they will park the bus and try to catch us on the break and beat the high line.

I would have preferred Christensen instead of Araujo. Don't trust Araujo at all in a big game. Between an OG, a stupid pen, a pass straight to the opponent or a red card, it's a given doing 90 mins he will check at least one on the list. And that's just the tier 1 blunders.

Araujo played in the collapse to Inter , conceding 4 to Benfica, concedeing 3 to Dortmund etc.

This could be utter chaos if Pedri and FDJ cant dominate the ball and even then always one pass away from sixes and sevens at back.
