    Would be nice if Can and Sancho could get back into the game, both are on the bench. If there's any realistic chance to still compete for the title and we'll know that after Tuesday, we need them at 100%.

    Dahoud the weakest link by far in this startup.. I think it will be very difficult to win 3 points today, i am expecting that up and downs as we are use to and weak form in away games.. I hope i am wrong..

    I was just about to say this too. He really sticks out for his poor form. Not sure why anyone would choose him and Delaney on the pitch at the same time.

    Is something wrong with Sancho? I just dont understand the fact that he isnt playing at all.

    I assume he is trying to just ease everyone back into it?

    God I hate watching Dahoud. I wonder if he is only featuring because we intend to get rid of him via sale or something.. Just dreadful on the ball and clumsy

    Hazard seems to have awakened with the near Reyna start over him.

    1:0 Guerreiro. Barely any chances so far whenever Wolfsburg plays with 8+ men in the back but that was a nice, fast attack.

    Hazard looks really good and the best part, i think he didnt reach his full potential yet..
    I dont know if i am crazy, but he could definitely reach maybe 70-80% of his brother career from Chelsea time..
    I think he is a 15-20 goal and 15-20 assist season guy at his best.

    Reyna is just too young, i wouldnt rush with him, he cant play in important games yet, that just isnt realistic

    I agree. Reyna drawing that start was perhaps too soon but it seems to have made Hazard a little driven for success and good. Competition is always good.

    this seems like the kind of match that we give up a late equalizer

    Typical Favre ball. We just let them have the ball for the complete second half so far. We'll either decide the game on counter attacks or we'll have to pray not to concede.
    Hummels had to be subbed during halftime due to a minor issue but that doesn't help our game.

    And it's the counter attack. Hakimi 2:0.

    Sancho makes an impact as soon as he gets on the pitch with an assist.

    Hakimi has an amazing finishing for one RB.. I dont want us to lose this guy.. He is priceless

    Red for Wolfsburg. Seems harsh but I'm torn between an unfortunate and unintended incident as a result of two movements towards the ball and an unnecessary foul depending on which slow motion is used.

    Exactly, any win is a good one but I fear this team is a little short staffed to beat Bayern if Sancho isnt going full speed as well as Reus.

    Lots of reservations but Im optomistic

    Dahoud... everyone's punching bag, but I thought he did well and improved on last game. I don't understand why he's getting so much hate. The reasons he hasn't been playing is Brandt, and the need for a more physical midfielder given that we only have 2 central mids in 3-4-3. But he's a great ball distributor, and is just getting rid of some rust from sitting on the bench for too long.

    I agree with @hava, we again score and sit back and chill. This is not sustainable. Even if we win against Bayern we're bound to fail in one of these games where we score and chill.

    I thought Mo had an industrious and mature game. Favre definitely sounded pleased and described his performance as "hervorragend." If he can combine this with his natural creativity and aggression then we have a real player in the making.

    In the absence of Hummels, Akanji had another solid outing taking on increased distribution responsibilities. The range and accuracy of his passes were really superb.
