CL Round: Newcastle - Barca 1-2

[Windhook]

The game is a test. I think it's the first time in years Barca are playing in England. IIRC 4-0 Anfield catastrophe.

Newcastle are not in a great form in EPL, but this means nada when comes to European competitions.

Quite an easy loss, frightening Line-up. What's wrong with Balde?

 

[TEKNYK]

3-1 away win

Newcastle lost their most dangerous man Isak, they are harmless now

They put up a hell of a fight against Liverpool and almost got a draw with 10 men. They’re a formidable opponent even without Isak… they just lack that danger up front. I still expect us to win though

Expected XI

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

Lewa instead of Ferran is a tragic mistake

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.

Ach its only a game of ftiba lads.

Lose and can still do what did last year in the table.

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 can't wait to see Rashford against pl team. He should be as at home
