five stars 1,635 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 I know very little about Frankfurt other than watching highlights of their last couple of Europa league games and doing a quick Google search. Starting this topic for those with knowledge of their teams/players strengths and weaknesses and how we should set up against them.

five stars 1,635 Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 Filip Kostic looks a threat down the wing. Seems able to pick out teammates with crosses and set pieces. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,347 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Kostic is the star, they don’t have that much attacking firepower and rarely get beat when scoring first I think. Tav vs Kostic could genuinely be key to the whole game. five stars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave55 7 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Their Colombian striker Santos borre. Sure we were linked with him a couple of seasons back around the time we signed Kemar Roofe! five stars and kelvd1873 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottBF2 3,540 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 They’ve lost Hinteregger for the final, big goal threat from corners and a rock at the back for them. Evan N’Dicka is their next best defender and he’s solid as well. five stars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottBF2 3,540 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 They can line up very similar to RB Leipzig, so will be interesting to see how they approach the final. 3-4-3 or 3-5-2 has been used at times this season.

five stars 1,635 Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 Evan N'Dicka at left centre back is supposedly a transfer target for various English clubs including Man United. He'll be dangerous at set plays so presumably it'll be Goldson marking him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brackley Bluenose 4,479 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 They’ve been playing counter attacking football throughout from what I’ve read. Even when West Ham went down to 10 the other night they scored their goal and didn’t have another chance in the game. Sounds a bit like how we got to the final in 2008. five stars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
five stars 1,635 Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 They seem to score many of their goals on counter attacks and have more wins away from home than in their own ground this season. I think tactics could be very important for this game. It'll be interesting to see if we put out an attack minded team (that leaves us open to the counter). Or try a more defensive approach?

RWB72 1,523 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Injury updates: "Hinteregger has suffered a major muscle injury, which means he is out for the season," said Frankfurt coach Oliver Glasner today. "That's a shame for Martin and for us," added the coach. Glasner also provided an injury update on Djibril Sow, Rafael Borre and Jens Petter Hauge. "Djibril Sow broke his nose. We have to see how we deal with it, whether he gets a mask. Borre and Hauge are both feeling a bit of pinching. We will not risk any muscle injuries," he said.https://bulinews.com/news/12527/hinteregger-miss-the-rest-the-season Orange and Blue 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
