Might even do it if we kept you out of the chat
Im sure we will face an another Sevilla tomorrow, they are burning for Copa. It will be hard but if you have a leo in your team nothing is impossible.

I have a feeling Sevilla will be more defensive from the start and look to counter more.
Because of this, I would consider partnering Messi with Braithwaite to occupy the CBs.

Braithwaite instead of whom?

It's not his forte, but he's the best that we got for this role.
For Dembele, if we're going with the 352 that we played vs Sevilla on Sunday

Very hard to overturn a 0-2 deficit against this Sevilla side by such a Barca we have today but surely not impossible. In such case we'll meet Bilbao in the final, yet another team we struggle against.
Braitwaite or Dembele? Theres not much to elaborate. One is below average and the other is average to (quite) good. I wouldnt even give the physical edge to the former. Both have the same main attribute: speed. Other than that Dembele actually has ability.

For me, it depends on how Sevilla approaches the game.
If they are more focused on being defensive, then obviously space will be reduced and Dembele is not much use without space. For all his flaws, Braithwaite is still the best in our squad at playing with his back to goal (which is still average at best) so I would trust Braithwaite more in that situation.
If they will be aggressive and press high up, then Dembele is my man. But the fact that they already have a 2 goal lead in this tie makes me think that they will go for the defensive approach, which is why I prefer Braithwaite for that situation. You still have the option to bring in Dembele in the 2nd half when teams start to get tired.
Maybe I do Braithwaite grave injustice, but for me hes atrocious in every aspect of the game bar running in straight lines. Especially playing with his back to goal (not Dembeles strong suit either though).

His link up is ok, he just needs to work on his finishing. Doesnt need Haaland finishing but atleast on Paco level.
