Malen is out, and I still go back and forth on whether I'd start Füllkrug or Moukoko. But otherwise I'm expecting the starting lineup to be something like:

Sancho, Füllkrug/Moukoko, Adeyemi
Sabitzer, Brandt, Can
Maatsen, Schlotterbeck, Hummels, Ryerson
Kobel

Why are you going against Barca? Not that I care, just curious!
...
I feel dirty...and that's one thing I'm not into...but I think want that 5th CL spot, so I'm rooting for the Ligue 1 team over the La Liga team. Plus that would give MAtS & Ilkay more rest before the Euros, so win-win...*ugh*


As for PSG's germans, the only time I was high on Kehrer was when he & Süle had that great start together under Flick...and that lasted for something like 8 games lol...so they didn't ruin anything by buying him other than the market, which they were doing whether they bought German or not.

Draxler had every tool that Rapey-Ronaldo did, but he just didn't care enough. That's why he went to FC VW before PSG. And a prospect going to FC VW is usually a big sign that they're more concerned with cashing in on what they've already achieved than achieving even greater heights moving forward.

Whereas with Trapp, I think his time in Paris actually helped him be a near perfect 3rd Keeper for the NT. Someone who was never going to play because we had two all-timers ahead of him, but who was a good locker-room guy and had the quality to backstop an EL winner, if both Neuer & ter Stegen got hurt.


And so many of the kids they're too lazy to play have netted BuLi clubs so much money, that it's hard for me to hate them. Their ineptitude has brought in hundreds of millions to the league.


E:
But that's just my mind, who knows who my heart will want to win once the ball actually kicks off :laugh:


TL,DR:

Serie A - 18.428 (4 teams left in Europe; Milan, Roma, Atalanta, Florenz)
BuLi - 16.785 (3 teams left in Europe; Bayer, Bayern, Dortmund)
EPL - 16.750 (5 teams left in Europe; City, Arsenal, Liverpool, West Ham, Villa)
La Liga - 15.062 (3 teams left in Europe; Real, Barca, Atletico)
Ligue 1 - 14.750 (3 teams left in Europe; PSG, Marseille, Lille)

Extremely stupid joke for the football x Sopranos x Simpsons fans on this board.

Azpilicueta in at left back for Atletico.

My countryman Kovacs is refereeing Barcelona-PSG, hope he helps the good guys.

And now Sabitzer almost gets beaten for the opener going the other way. Disastrous start so far from the Austrian.

Not sure how many will get the reference but....

In Russia this is called optimistic parenting...

Just like last week, PSG easily the better team in the first 10 minutes. But a goal is needed.

Against the run of play of course....
