TEFTONG 60,707 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Delighted to see Jack in there. Have to hope Borna provides a quality ball or 2 into El Buffalo tonight.

A back 3 of Akanji, Zagadou and Hummels can definitely be gotten at. I'll trust Morelos and Kent to give them some frights. Malkytfp1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShanksRFC 3,871 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Borna has had a couple of bad games but lets not right him off completely. He has had some outstanding games in Europe. Rangers_no1, Chineseboy and Siam69 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen’s horrific back pass at the end of the Ross County game is an example of why Big 5 teams haven’t come for him. His passing is too slack too often for a top flight DM.

bluenoz 31,357 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I fear that a game of this quality is too fast for Lundstram aka Malmo. Sure, he has vastly improved of late against spl sides. I hope he proves me wrong but a more agile, slightly out-of-form Kamara would still have been my choice. I'm putting my faith on Borna to have a decent game tonight. His experience in these games is vastly underrated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing Lundstram on the back of two very good performances instead of Kamara on the back of a few under par performances or Davis who has been out for a while is probably the opposite of insanity.

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. The wins against Hearts and Hibs we didn’t sit back and defend though did we, we pressed the opposition from the front and were the attacking team. Gio changed tactics after the criticism he received after the Aberdeen/County games. I’m not moaning about it I’m simply stating the obvious, we are unlikely to get anything from tonight I’m not criticising Gio and the team for it I’m just being realistic. Obviously I still want the players to go into the game aiming to win and at the very least give a good account of themselves but If we do get something from the game then it’s a bonus. However Dortmund are a clear step up on anything we have faced since probably the year we reached the UEFA Cup Final. HG5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
