Champions League last 16

ok lads psg it is

 

[Evilo]

A few early things on PSG :
Di Maria looks awfully bad, which means he might launch a rocket top corner again...
Verratti seems REALLY on for someone not 100%.
Bernat is going to get beaten defensively all game long. As usual.
Marqui seems ON. Thiago Silva as well. Kimpembe way too relaxed.

 

[ScottishCanuck]

Always cheer against the English team.

I like this guy.

 

[Evilo]

Not sure it's a card for Kimpembe's first foul, but it's a stupid foul so that warrants it.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Kehrer has played RB for a while with Paris.
Marqui is playing DM because they have zero healthy DM on the roster.
Alves is playing RW because Draxler is playing 10 instead of Neymar.

I think I would rather play Kimpembe at LB, Kehrer at DM, Marquinhos at CB, Alves at RB, and Bernat as a winger. I think you have more players in position they are familiar with.

 

[YNWA14]

I don't know.
I'm just happy one of these 2 team will be out.

Personally would rather see United knock out PSG here. PSG are hurting and this is the best opportunity to have them out before they're back at full strength. I don't see United going all the way but PSG could if healthy.

More action today, I'd be more willing to bet on Man U but Mbappe on Paris is one of the top young players in soccer right now. Should be a good game.

Kehrer has played zero game at DM this year.
Marqui is doing a fine job.


PSG is doing an individual marking on Pogba.

 

[ScottishCanuck]

Bit of a farce how Matic gets off with that yet he immediately gives Draxler a soft yellow.

Farce or even ridiculous. Second card for PSG, Matic leaves it clean after a vicious elbow.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Bernat and Lingard are both awful

 

[Jussi]

That's the first time Martial was on camera and he fluffed that counter.

 

[hatterson]

This official is giving out weird cards. Pogba and Draxler with ultra ultra soft yellows but Matic with none.

 

[Jussi]

Stupid card from Pogba.

 

[Savi]

Tuchel pretty much shutting Mbappe down himself by putting him as a lone striker trapped in between United's central defenders. Amazing a club with PSG's ambition only have one capable striker. Actually their depth overall is kinda disappointing anyway.

 

[Evilo]

Angel Di Maria is having a game for the ages.
Absolutely incredibly awful. Like in amateurish levels.

You can thank FFP for that.

Channeling his Old Trafford form.

 

[hatterson]

At this rate there's zero chance this game stays 11 on 11

 

[Jussi]

Mbop was going down before Young even fouled him.

 

[Evilo]

So Draxler at 10 and Mbappe at 9 aren't too bad...

Glad he didn't score though since he was offside.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Tuchel needs to take Kimpembe off at halftime. He's going to get himself sent off.

 

[Evilo]

Yeah right

Easy card.

First yellow was ridiculous. But he's been very good.

 

[hatterson]

Kimbembe easily could have been off there.

Ref put himself in this position by issuing a ton of cheap cards for obstruction fouls so early.
