“Make or break for EtH”? This place sometimes

I’m actually quite chilled about this tie as it would be better in the long run if we go out.

Just take one of the hardest game and make it make or break . That’s stupidity at his finest.

 

[Andre Kagawa]

No leaks is positive.

 

[Samid]

 

[Bastian]

Would be as expected.

 

[Judas]

That’s the logical team.

Both clubs can just pretend we're still in the CL, really does take a way from the occasion a bit getting drawn with someone like Granada.

First real test for EtH

Free hit over two legs, sooner finish in the top four than run this marathon of Thursday night football. I still think we could push to finish higher in the league this season.

We’re probably gonna have about 20% possession tonight. Barca will dominate with that midfield so we need to be on our best when countering. We need to take the chances we get. Unsure about weghorst for this game. I’d of put garnacho in for pace and his dribbling.

 

[TMDaines]

Not sure why I didn’t see Shaw at CB coming.

 

[JinnerJamie]

That bench is grim...

 

[Siorac]

That bench though. We really are down to bare bones.

 

[hp88]

AWB at RB was right call, Dallot just isn’t back to his usual self at the moment.

 

[Rightnr]

Ugh, missed the full house because of AwB.

 

[TMDaines]

That bench though. We really are down to bare bones.

Just the five regular full internationals. I can understand why others resent fans of the big clubs sometimes.

 

[AndyMUFC]

Expected team really I guess. Hopefully we're still able to counter with Weghorst up top.

I think Garnacho is generally better as a sub, to stretch tired defences. He's not quite ready to be a starter just yet.

Of course, that means Weghorst starting and he's been, well, mostly useless. But this way at least we have someone on the bench to change the game.

 

[Harry190]

Oh wow, this is an early kick off.

 

[2 man midfield]

Probably the best team we could hope for with those available, but Jesus that bench…

 

[George The Best]

Bit surprised to see Weghorst in for this game.

 

[Red Royal]

Oh wow, this is an early kick off.

Reckon a lot of people will be caught out by this.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Really want to win this one just for the record. Don't care about the rest of the tourney or even the return leg

 

[George The Best]

7 players missing. Hope no more injuries/suspensions

 

[Idxomer]

Bruno on the right, Sancho left, Weghorst at 10 and Rashford as CF.

Ten Hag will go full Pep again.

 

[Red Royal]

11/11 pretty easy for this game. Garnacho may be a key sub today

 

[Barthez]

That bench is grim...

2 keepers? Really!!

 

[calodo2003]

That bench is ragged.

Think he’ll be better as their defence tires

 

[Malone_Post]

Starting Weghorst away at the Nou camp is tragic. Expect little to no attacking threat until we change things in the second half. Relying on Rashford to produce some individual magic.

Rest of the team picks itself. Dalot has looked sluggish since he came back from injury so picking Wan Bissaka makes sense.

 

[RedPed]

Got 11/11 but then again that team virtually picks itself with the options available.

So long as we don't lose please. I'll take any result and hope we can resurrect the two Tonies for the home leg, though extremely doubtful, I know.

 

[Adam-Utd]

Bit surprised to see Weghorst in for this game.

Well we don't have much off the bench, and I don't think he wants to start Garnacho at the moment.

We seem to do better with subbing in the 70th and bringing him in, pushing Rashford up top.

He’s far better coming off the bench and being a game changer for me

 

[Judas]

That bench Injuries have ravaged us, but we’ve got a long way to go.

I'm not sure how to respond to that. I suspect you understood my point perfectly well. Is your post just some ill-timed lament about how big clubs tend to stockpile players? Or do you genuinely believe that this is a strong bench for a game at the Camp Nou?

I'll admit that Barcelona's subs don't look all that frightening either.
