Real Madrid (H) Feb 21st [CL]

[The Nomad]

Same team for me

Alisson

Robertson
Virgil
Gomez
Trent

Bajcetic
Henderson
Fabinho

Nunez
Gakpo
Salah

Obviously if Nunez is injured then Firmino.

We go again!

 

[bluebell]

You don't wait around
If Nunnie is injured then surely Jota?

Why Robbo at right back and Trent at left? Weird

Worked last time..

Left back is always named first.. feckin' Irish reading it backwards as always.

I'm not Irish

 

[MomoWASright]

If you’d start Firmino after that cameo then you need your head testing.

 

[are we back?]

My first ever CL match at age 57. Lad is 21 so treat in The Beat Lounge.

Also only way we'd get tickets 🙁

 

[The Nomad]

I'm not Irish

Yeah you are... Thomas O'Brown

rusty. Jota also

You're onto something there, GAA teams RB is always first after GK.

 

[tomasjj]

Right back first, that is why they have number 2.
Anyone saying different are traitors to be shot behind the shed.

 

[MomoWASright]

rusty. Jota also

That was levels below rusty. Back heel turns in our own half. He should know better.

 

[localny]

It would be lovely to get some revenge

 

[Dreambeliever]

Hopefully another famous European night.

Virgil back is huge.

 

[Buddha]

I said it before the Ev game, we’re winning all three games (Ev / Barcodes / Real cunts) comfortably.

 

[Frogfish]

Buddha's on a hattrick. Don't blow it !

 

[The Nomad]

Buddha's on a hattrick. Don't blow it !

He's not the only one on a hat-trick...

 

[dogboy]

Yeah you are... Thomas O'Brown

Tómas O'Broun

 

[SummerOnions]

Get his balls on a permo conno

 

[mom]

Play the kids. We’re gonna get battered anyway. Save all our world class talent for the league

 

[Brizzle]

I’d start Naby & Jota for Hendo & Darwin. Save Hendo’s legs and play safe with Darwin.

Ali

Trent
Gomez
VVD
Robbo

Fabs
Badger
Naby

Salah
Gakpo
Jota

Absolute pressing machine

 

[Hansern]

I like that team. Rather Jota then Bobby.

Absolutely no way with Naby.. in the big games, he's always found wanting.

We need to take a lead into the second leg. Naby should be nowhere near the starting XI for me.

 

[Hansern]

Hendo cant play on Tuesday. Neither can Milner or Elliott.

 

[SummerOnions]

Is that you Brendan?

 

[SummerOnions]

Hendo cant play on Tuesday. Neither can Milner or Elliott.

I'd start Hendo. Why not?

 

[Hansern]

I'd start Hendo. Why not?

Thought he was the odd man out in midfield today. Weak, slow and poor with the ball.

He did pretty well in the CL against Atletico, or United away last season. With Fabs and Bajcetic alongside him, I am not too concerned - agree with @Brizzle’s team.

Well, who else? Keita against Madrid I still have nightmares over
