Wasn't Barcola injured?

He is back.

The lineup also has Zaire-Emery at RB, which if true would suggest that LE expects no attacking threat from that side.

Would have risk, but would also open an opportunity if Felix started.

He's not gotta bench raphinha for Felix, especially on the same side Dembele will be going up again cancelo.

Raphinha should definitely start over Felix.
In fact I'd even start Ferran over Felix. Only bring Felix on vs. Atletico or if you desperately need some creativity even with his low effort.

Damn, hoped he won't make it for the first leg.
Maybe Felix would do better as a sub but other than him indeed there is no real threat on the left side of Barca's attack.

Betting odds for Madrid - City were pretty close but I'm a bit surprised PSG are heavy favorites vs. Barca for the bookmakers.

That much better value betting on us. Our win and both to score even better. I have a feeling we will win tonight, and I'm not missing out on such odds, as we very rarely get such for Barca, especially in what is a winnable game.

Not necessarily. He tends to thrive with those forward runs, especially against more open teams. But yeah, helping Cancelo contain Dembele has to be the priority, and no one in the team can do that better than Raphinha right now, so him starting has to be non-negotiable. We can always sub in Felix after 60 minutes, especially if we're behind and in need of some more creativity threat down that left. Also sub in Ferran for Lewandowski at some point, please.
Absolutely not. I wouldn't either. But offensively we all know Raphinha will be a damp fart.

By the way, 99% of the football world will watch us tonight, as Atletico Dortmund is probably less interesting than our game for neutral fans. It's a big chance for our players, especially Lamine and Cubarsi to get international attention and recognition. The other side of the coin would be of course all see a poor/humiliation performance again.

Barca fans are getting excited. We have been playing well but who have we played? Napoli? Napoli easily could have scored more that day.

Mbappe is no joke. I think a draw would be a good result today and a win is unlikely as hell. Maybe 10% chance to win.

Dembele will have a point to prove the same way Felix does against ATM.

Only knuckle dragging " but bu bu bu bu bu can he do it in the EPL " types will have not heard of Lamine and Cubarsi by now.

Those two have already made their mark around the world. And will continue to do so.

Or is it we who will have a point to prove against Dembele?

After all it is he who rejected us, and not the other way round as with Felix.
