you’ve really failed as a manager if you can’t manage to fit at least one of dybala, Agüero or Higuaín (as much of an argie bottler he is) into a starting XI

The lack of other goal scoring threats apart from Messi is shocking, might as well be wearing t shirts saying their game plan is pass to Messi and hope he scores. I mean that usually is the case but at least when another goal scorer is on the pitch they can pretend there’s more to it than that. ALSO Dybala and Higuaín have both scored vs varane/umtiti when playing in the champions league, puts a bit of fear into them. But we’ll see

Not bad really.

Need pace to try and hit France on the break as they have to sit a bit deeper against likes of Mbappe and Griezmann.

If play front three of Messi on RW and Aguero/Higuain on CF there is less ability to hit with pace and would need to play higher line to get men up and around them which leaves that shit defence too exposed.

Can see why this team is chosen bar maybe Lo Celso or Fazio in to go Rojo at LB.

Fuck knows if will work though as they just seem to old a side.

Dybala never scored against Real Madrid.
