      On a good day.

      He's out of form. Not his best season in truth.

      Might not be hitting the heights of last season but he’s certainly making a strong contribution.

      I personally think he would be brilliant for this game, he knows the German league

      We look to be without out of form Firmino.

      Good job we have good enough replacements. Wait, those guys have hardly touched a match ball in weeks.. shame we didn't take the opportunity to give them game time when out of form Firmino was still playing every game.

      You see what happens when you go abroad and catch things off those bloody foreigners, could have stayed at home , gone to butlins instead and caught something off someone british there instead. We are fu**ed, man the barricades,  we are all doomed, judgment day is coming, repent all ye sinners...(be tempted to go with shaq instead of studge or divvy if no bobby)

      Come on!!! Remember when you said City and Spurs would lose last week or 2? Just tell us we're gonna lose 2-0 instead ;)

      Never, I can't pick against the redmen!

      Think Bobby will be ok tomorrow but if he doesn’t then I would prefer Divy over Studge.

      Got a feeling this'll be similar to PSG at Anfield. Studge starts and scores, Bobby comes off the bench and scores.. except we dont concede twice tomorrow!

      Mane Studge Mo
      Naby Hendo Gini
      Robbo Matip Fab Trent
      Alisson

      Subs: Migs, Hoever, Moreno, Milner, Lallana, Origi, Bobby

      The more I think about it, the more I am swaying away from a win. World class Lewandowski vs a makeshift CB in Fabinho and a good CB in Matip, then you have Alaba and Coman attacking our weakest area.... argh!!!

      Can't see us getting a clean sheet tomorrow but if we're on it I can see us getting a couple of goals at least. Hopefully Bobby's fit, if not I'd put Shaqiri or Origi in there. Don't think Sturridge offers us enough anymore.

      Thats where our mids make a difference. Bayern find it tough against pressing oppositions, so if the supply to Lewa is cut, he will be isolated. Hopefully the plan will be to keep pegging back Coman and Gnabry so that they help their full backs against Mo and Mane.

      Its not like their CBs are great either. They are slow as hell and might actually suit Studge who likes to play on their shoulders. I'm quietly confident about tomorrow! 3-1!!

      Yep, I do agree. If we are to win, it will be because of our midfield imo. We need to exploit their weakness and put a lot of pressure on them high up, our counter pressing needs to be tier 1 tomorrow! But remember, they are very deadly on the counter, but also, Lewandowski is rather exceptional making runs behind, so we need to be very wary of Thiago's through balls.

      I also have to disagree on Sturridge, but Origi (as HScRed1 mentioned) might be an interesting choice as the game might be end to end stuff with a lot of space inbetween and behind.

      Is Shaqiri back to fitness? Much rather he came in than Origi.

      Bobby is like the main spring in an expensive watch yes you can see the hour and minute hand doing their stuff ( Mo and Mane) but if that spring doesn't work neither does the watch so no we cant do without him. We may have to if he is ill but Jürgen will never drop him if he is fit. Think we will have too much for Bayern tomorrow they aren't the side of 3 or 4 years ago

      Hopefully Bob will make it, if not maybe Divock on the side with Mo moving into the middle.
      Fab should be OK, but would still think Munich will target the CBs.
      Think Hendo/Gini/Keita all available, so strong middle.
      Won't have too many strong options on the bench, but that first XI should be good to do a number :)
      Looking forward to this one, time to munch Bayern!

      I'll be in a dilemma if i'm the bayern manager. Attack us or not? We have a less desirable defence at the moment but e can punish them upfront. I think they will sit back and go on the offence on certain time. I predict a 1-0 in our favor.

      Clean sheet would be massive . Interesting to see if Bayern try and unsettle our defence and go for it

      I would be happy with a 0-0 tbh. It's all about the away goals, and I think they will be under more pressure at the Allianz Arena.
