NikkiCFC 8,325 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Without Olie wonder goal and 0:0 I would not fancy our chances here. 1:1 would do it now. They need to attack us. Mendy, Azpi, Chris, Rudi, Alonso, Kovacic, Kante, James, CHO, Werner/Havertz, Giroud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Would gladly take the most boring 0-0 draw ever from this game. bigbluewillie and Atomiswave 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 No Mount for this one, I am looking forward to it. Some counter attacks should not be screwed so easily then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to worry, we have CHO, Kante, Kovacic, Ziyech, and Werner to blow counter attacks for him. 👍 Magic Lamps and Muzchap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiCFC 8,325 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Atletico is also low scoring team. Considering how good our defence is under Tuchel it would really need miracle to happen for us to conside 2 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kante 1,643 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 This game will determine how mature we are as a team. I see 1-1 or 1-2 Atletico. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could imagine same lineup as first leg but Chilwell for Alonso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount and Jorginho are suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His performances have shown me that Alonso is the much superior wingback in this system. I agree that we need pace next to Giroud. Maybe we play CHO next to Giroud with Havertz behind them two. CHO is brilliant on the left side and I trust him to be more productive than Werner currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
