Champions League Round of 16 (13th Feb - 14th Mar)

PSG's lineup realy isn't all that. easy 4-1 or 4-2 for Madrid.
Yeah those are my thoughts exactly looking at their lineup, except Madrid have been pretty shit this season in their own right, and everyone has taken their late season resurgence as a given.

Looks much more like stoppable force vs movable object than the supergalactico clash of the titans it aught to be.
 
That Porto weather :lol: Liverpool should feel right at home tonight
 
Yet more proof 4-3-3 is the formation to use. The top teams all use it. No 4-2-3-1 in sight. I hope Jose is watching.
 
First time in the knockout round since we played Chelsea in 2009. I remember that match as I was sitting waiting for a flight to Afghanistan and was mightily glad that the RAF delayed us by 3 days so I could watch it!
Us not being in this stage for 9 years shows how good a job Klopp is actually doing. No idea how far we'll go but it's so good to be back at this table
 
Tonight PSG will rue the day they sold Matuidi
 
Nah. Probably Can & Lallana for Milner & Gini. However Can is suspended and Lallana not yet fully match fit.

I think Can makes too many mistakes. He was very sloppy against Southampton. And as you say Lallana is not fully fit yet, therefore best available line-up at the moment.
 
Those duos, Marcano/Reyes in the defense and Sérgio Oliveira/Herrera in midfield don't inspire any confidence in that Porto team
 
Two threads a bit confusing. Will flit between the two.
 
Can’t believe I’ve got to go out for a meal and miss this.

Have you got 4G? If so, log into your BT account. Just set your phone against something on the table and you're sorted. You don't have to be so extreme and break up with her as @Damien mentioned.
 
OOOH Madrid well up for this
 
Game as expected. Real raising the level of play at the right time and PSG are shitting themselves.
