Very excited to see Bentancur tonight. Interesting to see if he is ready for this level. I think it is going to be a 4-4-1-1 with Matuidi on the left, Costa on the right and Dybala behind Higuain.

I could see this. Or Bentancur at LM.

As good as a lineup as we can expect. It's just a shame that we had so many injuries/suspensions at the time of our most difficult group stage game.

I reckon we will see the 4-3-3 quite often against the top teams in Europe. Beef up the midfield and give our defence a bit more protection.

Bentancur played there in preseason so that is also a possibility. I dont think Dybala will play on the wings under any circumstances.

Anyway I must admit I have a bad feeling about tonight. One of the reason we were so succesfull against Barca last year, was because they did not have an attacking RB. That meant they had to go through the middle all the time. Semedo could really hurt us. The Suarez vs Benatia and Dembele vs MDS matchups are also the stuff nightmares are made of.

Wow it's almost like there was reason to playing hard workers/ warriours out wide like Mandzukic and Cuadrado in a game like this. Who could've guessed it?


Costa was our best attakcing player in the first half but as soon as things went against us he gave up and couldn't be bothered to play

Epically disgusting.

I don't see a way out for this team against top opposition considering the roster we have.

The defence is not up to it, our midfield can't compete and Higauin is a huge waste of time.
