No one single classic no. 6 for such a very important match. Good luck to us winning in 2 legs against Chelsea because we are going to need it for sure.

We sure as hell need luck when you put fucking Coutinho in the lineup.

I believe by now that the "message" has been delivered to some players, the coach is on the air so they can't blame it on him entirely by making him a scapegoat like Ancelotti or Kovac matter of fact they have been praising him for months so now so it's up to them to deliver mostly.
The press has "leaked" some info about many important players who are in their last year of their contract that they have to show something extra this season particularly in the Champions League and I'm expecting them to do so because many of them have the necessary quality.

It's a very important 16-round this time, it has been so many years feeling like this so early in the CL not even against a great team like Juventus in 2016 felt like a must-win situation or we kind of vanish... The players I'm sure they feel the pressure and the need not only to deliver and win but convince the world that we're in fact still a world-class squad and last year's pathetic performance against the CL winner was indeed a fluke rather than the start of a downfall.

Who would tell that a 16-round game would determine the coach's career and 2-3 important players contract's ?

That downfall has started way earlier...

Like Hoffenheim, Köln and Paderborn?

Yes, but not unconditionally as they say.

That's why in the end one cannot take them for anything serious anymore and in the last 4 years. Post-prison Hoeneß is gone, but stupid Karl is still a constant at Bayern and he can't change anything about it.

Salihamidžić has only decorated the whole board mess within the club to be totally shining in the eyes of observers.

You're telling me we where on the top of our game then?
Thinking more like Schalke, Hertha and the first halves against Hoffenheim, Köln and Leipzig.

Time to beat these Russian doped bastards at last

This is a bit different, I think veeeery different.

This isn't some Bundesliga opponent, but Chelsea. And we really played just 2-3 top matches this season and dozens of 45 minutes matches while another 45 minutes were nothing but to forget

Let's see whether our team can actually win something on energy, heart, passion, muscles and discipline, because playing defence as we are playing can't give us high hopes.

Still don't understand what's wrong with saying we just need to be on top of our game.

But yeah, if you believe it needs a ton of luck to reach that level, then you might be right. I for myself believe is that all it needs is each player playing on their limit and Flick giving them some decent tactical instructions. Not like Chelsea is some super-human squad. Just look at their own defense ffs

Looks solid. My only fear is Boateng but he works better with Alaba unlike Lucas.
And of course the midfield, if this duo rolls we win EZ
