UEFA Champions League 2020/21

I understand Klopp’s reasoning for why we didn’t get another back up CB in the off-season, but he’s being proven very wrong right now  

Fucking Midtjylland already has 3 yellows and seem to be happy to take another one of us out, judging by that tackle on Hendo. 

Also, Gladbach and Shaktar ending the second week of Champions League above Real and Inter would be sweet.

Fabinho pulled up with a hamstring. 

This is a concern. He should have more than one.

[Benjamin]

FINALLY.

Great pass by Shaqiri.

That's how Steve Bruce explains injuries, "he's got a groin". DM is Steve Bruce.

I am highly offended that you are saying that I suffer with bloaty head syndrome

You’re a top crime novelist though

Chelsea didn't deserve to be winning prior to winning a completely BS penalty, and now turn it into a 4-0 victory. Ziyech and Pulisic hit counter attacking goals.

United's formation looks like it's going to have Pogba in the 10 position tonight, and Van de Beek out wide on the left. Curious to see if this is the disaster I think it could be. Wish Tyler Adams was starting so I could watch him as an American tonight!

VdB out wide is something that seems to be working - and it's an additional creative outlet, which is what's needed with our Fred-McTominay double pivot. I'm not sure I'd have played this formation at home vs RBL (I think Donny can work in that double pivot just fine, and with an additional player to stretch the play like Rashford or even James we'd maybe be further in front) but it's certainly something I can see us playing with a lot this season.

It's been ok. Happy to lead but it feels like we haven't touched the ball since we scored. Need to do better at keeping it 2nd half. Feels like I'm just waiting for them to create a good enough chance to put one away at the moment.

[The Lusophone]

It appears to be going quite well.

[Baddar]

This turned into a fantastic night.

RB Shitezig more like. 🤫

[The Lusophone]

I wanna be Marcus Rashford when I grow up.

[Baddar]

And it's 5! Rashford hat trick, lovely.

Leipzig now have the inside track to the coveted 3rd place spot in that group which allows them to cruise to Europa League glory.

[Cymbols]

Leipzig don’t look the same without Konrad Laimer running things in the middle/right hand side. Obviously, losing Timo’s goals is massive, but Laimer is lowkey the engine of that team, and his injury isn’t helpful.

[Baddar]

Shakhtar go from beating Real and drawing with Inter to being 5 down at home to Gladbach...

[Benjamin]

Jota is in phenomenal form.

[Szumi]

Jota is filthy. Two great, very different, goals

[gunnar hendershow]

What a signing Jota was. Perfect player for that club.
