Seems Genesio prefers Aouar control out on the LW in big games and bring Depay on if needed. Worked again tonight.

He's been playing Aouar as an ALM in a 4231 for most of the last two or three months. Think he and Lyon were much better with him in a CM3 or a 433.

Yeah but the 433 takes Fekir away from all the action on the right as your CM3 would be Tousart, NDombele & Aouar. I think my point was more about Genesio's preference for Aouar, clearly a MF, instead of Depay out on the left. But they have had a slide in results with the return of Traore and your beloved 4231:troll:. Perhaps you have a point (This sentence will self-destruct in 5 minutes :ROFLMAO:).

Seems like Batman is suddenly playing really good football again. Funny that.

I think Dortmund’s a good fit for him, they are a side that creates chances and Batshuayi has always been a high shot/goal converter

Some good games going on: Villareal v Lyon and RBL v Napoli.

Watching Rasenballsport v Napoli, Napoli need two goals to go through and are pressing but not quite getting there.

Would be a shame to see them go out but I guess the Scudetto is everything this season.

Didn't they lost 3-1 in the first leg?

Yeah and they're one up but not creating clear chances so far in the second half. RB win either outright as it stands or on away goals if it ends 0-2.

Yeah, you're right. I though the legs were the other way around. Paying more attention to the Lyon game.

That's not on in Norway, we get to choose between RB-Napoli, Zenit-Celtic and Atleti-Copenhagen.

I'm not watching any football tonight.

I got live 3 games on Sunday to watch so I am keeping the peace with the Mrs.

good think because the ref (fairly) just ended the tie with a double yellow (foul and dissent) on a Villareal player. I love refs with big balls to make the right call.

How did amadou Diawara play? I saw that he was just lifted.

2-0 Napoli with five plus added to go. Insigne with the goal. It'll be an interesting finish!
