Inter would probably beat Girona and us easily too. Madrid is harder because the gap in squad quality might become too large, but if Madrid have injuries to their backline like now it's still very possible.

We have a manager who is so rigid in his belief about positional cones and slow buildup to the wing that we will never really be able to get the best out of any player except fast dribblers like Dembele. It is not a coincidence all the players look useless when they come here because Xavi does...

It is basically guaranteed they go through. This is not a joke team and they are way better than Atleti, who really are lucky they managed to keep the loss small.

Because they are not going to throw the lead, they will likely win by a greater margin away. This team and above all the manager is seriously good and they have a chance to win this year, again.

Thats crazy. I think you saying that just speaks to how good of a job he is doing. Guys like Darmian and Mkhi or Arnautovic that were failures in England are playing at a world class level in the Champions League. If we bought those guys as starters, the likes of Serghei would talk about how...

Well, you heard it here first!

The two sides arent even close. Inter are far better.

They arent going to win the tie. Been shite today and Inter strikers missing chances hasn't been down to their merit.

Not sure why you're mocking him as Inter are clearly the better side and should be winning 3-0. They will go through anyway, even if not by a ton of goals.

Thats fair enough. He's clearly worse than Pep and Klopp.

I hope Xavi gets appointed in Ten Hag's place so we can see your theories crumble in real time.

With Xavi? Pipe dream. This guy was squaring up to the camera after winning with a lucky last minute pen against Celta. Hes mentally shattered and we wont win any trophy with him for as long as he stays.

Respected because of his name, not anything he has done as a manager. That will start to wear off over time as people start to see Xavi the player has nothing to do with Xavi the manager.

Rules are also that you cant balk on penalties... Guaita would say he came off his line because Lewa stopped his runup. Just more bullshit that will prolong this guys time here.

Roque isnt a winger. No point trying him there.

Nagelsmann had a good project building at Bayern he wasn't allowed to finish. Agree that it would be cool to see him here. He showed a lot of positive aspects, especially in the Champions League. One wonders if he had Kane like Tuchel instead of Choupo would they be serious challengers this...

Napoli under Mazzari is awful, really we should be winning this tie easily even with our bad form, they are literally in mid table.

Only 2 pens as well.

Because all people do here is troll strikers whenever they miss chances. Its like nobody has seemed to realise yet the mark of a great striker is getting into scoring positions, and the goals usually develop later, even though this is said time after time. Lautaro has the 4 main points to be a...

I don't think our situation is as bad as that, though I doubt he would come here. We don't actually have a bad team but we are misusing it. Gundogan, Frenkie, Raphinha, Lewa, MATS, Araujo etc are players who are extremely well regarded around the world. Not to mention the youth like Pedri...
