As I said in my other post if our players have the game of our lives and Dortmund play shite then yes we could get something but it’s unlikely. and it’s a simple fact that every time Gio has tried to get our team sitting in defending a lead the players end up fucking it up (especially with the likely Bassey CB, current form Borna at LB combo), it’s a part of the game that’s simply not in their skill set as it’s not something Gerrard built the team to do.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody we’ve played in Europe have come close to Leverkusen, they absolutely strolled both games without breaking a sweat Doesn't mean they are "levels" above the likes of Benfica.

Also forgetting when he took over after we were battered by Hibs we won two tough away games to the Edinburgh clubs again not conceding. My point goes back to some fans really shiting the bed and writing us off. People were fucking declaring them champions after the old firm game now we're writing ourselves off before a ball is kicked in a European match. Think after years without European football folks would just enjoy it and go in with some optimism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.E.C. 19,594 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I know we scored from a corner but I honestly can’t remember us stringing 5 passes against Leverkusen. Dickie1963 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddybear1975 2,295 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Don't sit in too much being passive and waiting to get beat. Dortmund are a very good team but their defense can definately be got at if we press as a team when able to. Hopefully Morelos can isolate big Hummels as I think we could get some joy.
