Pre-match: |CL - 1/4 Finals, 2nd Leg|: FC Bayern München - Manchester United FC 09.04.2014

Man Utd logo is too big

 

Oh but easy win

 

So they'll get evra back and their confidence will be higher.

Meanwhile we are missing 3 key players , one of which through injury.

I gotta say without thiago we look a little disjointed, it could take a while to get the rhythm back again.

Our return leg record vs English teams sucks serious balls. We pretty much have to win this one, any kind of draw is in manU favor.

1-1 isn't the best result, if you think about it. Not much advantage to the away goal.

If it was 3-3 or 2-2 that's one thing, but 1-1 to me is a little bit more of a disadvantage..

 

There, Lahmfan will be proud of that tiny United avatar.

 

Our good luck charm

 

damn, just realized, I might have to retire my signature.

 

Can we do this lineup?

Neuer
Rafhina boateng Dante Alaba
Lahm Kroos
Robben gotze ribery
Mandz

 

I agree with this lineup 100%. I would also like to see Götze start taking on players. He's too busy passing it rather than taking a risk and dribbling through the players. Could unlock the bus if he gets past 1 or 2 guys and other defenders are suddenly thrown out of position to recover for the guys who messed up. And then open lanes for guys like Robbery to pass it to or even just shoot it.

 

Is that what he said after this game?

 

I'd like Muller over Goetze for some real penetration similar to last season, but yeah that's the team in a nutshell

 

I like the original lineup just the way it is. We really gotta take the game it them and create a real cushion. We can't let them get into any kind of rhythm or grow in confidence over the course of the game.

This return leg will show how much we've progressed mentally.

I would like to use muller as 60+ for this one, he seems to make impacts at tired defenders a lot.

 

Because he's so unpredictable and he always finds space left by tired defenders.


I think that's our best lineup for the return leg.

 

Ok....back to normal...

Tough but manageable. Anyone think it will be a goal fest?

 

I think we'll score 2 and then play it safe.

 

Considering our English voodoo in home games, considering 3 key players out..

I can see an upset, 2-2 draw and QF exit..

 

I hope the bookies think like you do, because this may be an opportunity to drop the checkbook on this game.

 

I see there's isn't the : - ( on the title. Good.

 

I think we will win this match, but I am a bit worried given our absences. Anything can happen at this stage and with a ton of bad luck, we could be heading out of the CL.

All it takes is some fluky goal and we will be in deep shit.

 

That's why we'll score 5 goals. Then they can score a fluky goal or two.

 

I hope so. If we get knocked out, I'm going to have to take a sabbatical from this forum. It will be literally unbearable to read all of the BS whining and crying that will happen.
