Maguire versus Lewandowski battle will be epic  I would rather put sulphuric acid drop by drop in my eyes while they're being pried open by pliers. Luckily he won't play and I won't have to do that. |

I would assume the reason Maguire started at Leeds is because he isn't starting this one and it was purely to give Varane a rest ahead of this game. Varane and Shaw at centre half and Malacia left back.
Their pitch is massive so i think we'll still find it very difficult, even though they're not the side they were i'm sure they'll still be pretty decent at the old Tikki takka, got to try and keep it tight and hit them on the break with Rashy and Alejandro.
Still want us to win this pot so hoping we can at least go in to the 2nd leg with something to play for.

We cannot beat them at their game and we will lose if we try. We need to take them on with what we're good at and that is counter attacking. With the right mix of intelligence and speed we can cut right through them. Although I must say ter Stegen is an excellent keeper. |

Didn't realise how threadbare the midfield is. Thank christ Casemiro is back for this.

DDG AWB - Varane - Shaw - Malacia Casemiro - Fred Sancho - Bruno - Rashford Wout I thought starting Gary Walsh at the Nou camp was as low as it got but the idea of seeing Wout trot around that pitch.... |

Start Garnacho, play Rashford at 9. We need pure pace up top tonight, Weghorst isn't going to lay a glove.

Thought the Wegster was our new no. 10 after his brief but effective switch near the end of the Leeds game?  Agree start Garnacho the lad is fearless, we`ll need to try and soak it up and hit them on the break with him and Rashford. |
