March day thread of the Uefa Champions League fixture away to FC Bayern.

Figured we should have our match thread up early for our champions league return.

for many of us This brings back great memories, and when we think of Bayern in munich we think of this:

Magnificent.

Jackson will score.

I reckon Maresca goes with PSG tactics.

Sanchez

Chalobah

Tosin

Cucurella

James

Caicedo

Gusto

Palmer

Enzo

Neto

Actually fancy us more in Europe than the league.

I'd go with the same.

If Bayern will play with high defensive line, then it would be perfect for us to play on counter attacks and repeat the performance against PSG.

With our defence i wouldn't be shocked to see kane getting an hatrick,I have no confidence in this squad at present,just my opinion.I really hope I'm wrong though.

PSG were arrogant and stupid.

If they're smart Bayern will play the same way the poorer opposition of the EPL play against us and try and nick it 1-0...

Probably Wacko will come on as a sub and score ! 😁

No idea what team he's planning for this, but I do expect it to be a great one and for us to absolutely thrash Bayern after he made such sacrifices in our last match to prepare for this game.

My prediction based on Marseca's preparation, 8-0 to us.

You know Jackson will score and give it the old Adebayor celebration.

I wonder if Jacko will score a header like that against us this week?

Oh, I laughed so hard a bit of wee just leaked out.

Can Jackson play as he’s on loan?

Apparently so for Euro competitions.

Yes. The loan restriction only applies EPL matches.

The bigger question is can we insist that they play him?

We are doomed..

I’m glad we beat these c**ts on their own pitch.

Great to have some proper football back! UCL is hands down my favourite comp. 👏

Agree in a single game we can be magic but still lack consistency over a season.

We need to keep an eye on Jackson and Olise, other than that I think we will win (cough cough)

Lets gooo

Last seasons 2 bob Conf league allowed Maresca to rotate and the oppo faced was easily beatable, UCL is a much different proposition - can't rest or omit the best, rotation is key as the EPL is equally important to the clubs 25-26 ambitions. I'm thinking that a point tomorrow would be a decent result, BM attack well and we cant defend being my logic. Just hope that Jacko stays off the scoresheet !!
