It's going to be a very tough game. Dortmund are pretty similar to us from what i've read, so it'll be back and forth for the entire game, and i think it'll be a score draw.

Devo from Dublin

Would you say Poch knows his team a few games in advance?

what i mean is...

He'll give Kane 90 tonight, 30 on sunday at Villa, 90 again against Dortmund and 90 against Bournemouth and a rest against Liverpool?

Same with all others ?

Like has the teams down on paper 4 games in advance, barring injuries??

He must be doing something like that to make avoid fatigue and injuries...


Anyway, my team for tonight....prediction not the team i want out...

Lloris

Trippier - Toby -Vimmer - Rose

Mason - Dembele

Son -Eriksen - Chadli

Kane.


Bentaleb, Lamela and Onomah to get a run.


i think we'll be grateful for an away goal.

2-1 or 3-1 im expecting.

I think Rose has been left at home, along with Dier and Alli.

Devo from Dublin

oh yeah thats right..... i was thinking of him because of the pace and movement of their front players.

Looking forward to seeing this Aybayemang.

Think Batshauyai from Marseille is similar who we've been linked with previously.

Kiith

He won't rest Kane against Liverpool. I'd say he'll play in all the games, and will be taken off once we are two up against Villa and Bournemouth. I'd say we'll see one of Davis/Tripper tonight, and other then that it'll be a full strength team.

Kiith

Was reading up on Dortmund a bit today, and this is going to be a very tough ask. 59 goals in 25 games, and no losses at home. We'll need to be at our best to keep them quiet.

His pace is phenomenal. It gets him in to the right places for easy tap ins.

DubPerryman

Lloris (C), Trippier, Alderweireld, Wimmer, Davies; Carroll, Mason; Onomah, Son, Eriksen; Chadli

Don't like the look of that team at all,esp in midfield.
Could be in for a bit of a drubbing if they put their 1st team out.
Hope i'm wrong tho

Subs: Vorm, Carter-Vickers, Walker, Bentaleb, Dembele, Lamela, Kane.

In fairness after dropping five points in the league in the last week, I'd say Poch's eyes are firmly placed on getting back to winning ways in the league.

**** it why can't we get a draw.

Id rather dembele instead of caroll or onomah but three points on the weekend is a must

Hope we can scrape a draw, not at all optimistic

Fielding a weakened team against Dortmund is asking for a pasting.

On the other hand, it would be very sweet if we scraped a score draw having rested our best players.

Disappointed with the line up. It does look like the tie will be over tonight.

I am really pissed we do not have back up striker to play this kind of game. Chadli and Son are square pegs in a round hole. We are actually ruining their confidence IMHO.

Now I just hope we do not concede too many. COYS

I don't believe it's a foregone conclusion. We still have some quality players out there. Toby and Hugo are capable of keeping us in the tie til the second leg.

Sugarlumps

Very light in midfield me'h.

Kiith

Don't like that team. Villa at the weekend should be a push over, so we should be going for this. Very surprised to be honest, and I suspect we'll lose this now.

We would do well to get a draw in this game with a weakened team,can't even see us getting that tbh.

NomadicGray

Well, interesting selection. Mason and Carroll might get over run. I guess he's more interested in not conceding tonight.
Will be glad for certain players to get a rest

COYS!

fox sports stream so setanta can go fook themselves fapping all over the manu-pool game and completly ignoring our game first

90 minutes of Robbie Savage. Reus is a rolls.

MonkieSocks

Worth taking a chance with this team.

I think at this stage, winning the league would be easier than winning the The Ropey Cup.

Providing Leicester slip up

This looks like it is going to be HAIRY!!

His Grandad was Irish, so he could have played for Ireland.



















Would've called him Reus Paddy :P
