dyslexic nam Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Bayern play Barca today in the CL at 4pm Atlantic time. Will be interesting to see if Davies can once again rip them apart and cause UT to quietly rock back and forth in the fetal position.

Well if you look at the history between the two teams, it is balanced. Barça has done as much or more in Europe. If we could have a full stadium it'd be different, but we are forced to only allow 30% in (I just returned to Barcelona last night and thought I would not go, but tickets are tough to get anyways and very expensive--like 350$ CDN with the restrictions in place). Now most commentators here think we are inferior and should probably go out to control the match and not get burnt. It does not help that we are missing only in strikers Dembele, Ansu Fati and now Braithwaite--and Coutinho has not played since last December. All we have up top is Memphis Depay and Luuk de Jong, just in from Sevilla, who has never played for us before. My personal view is that Barça still won't respect Bayern enough, because we never tend to go out against anyone with excessive respect. dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhCanadaOhBaby Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Although it won't show up on the score sheet, Phonzie's dummy run for the first goal drew two defenders overloading the left side, allowing for Muller to open up and take the shot. Albeit deflected, Phonzie still helped create that chance big time. He's been all over the pitch, both defensively and offensively looking really strong thus far. I think it's definitely his day for some Phonzie magic. TOcanadafan, PegCityCam, longlugan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowlander Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Comfortable 3-0 win for Bayern. Davies played well enough. That was the first club match I have seen this year, I thought he was more aggressive getting forward than last season, which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAl Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Watched much of the second half. Davies played like he was in second gear; and so did Bayern. Don’t know if that is an indictment of how poor Barça were or how good Bayern are. Looks like a major rebuilding exercise in Catalonia…hopefully the kids will be given a chance and that the supporters will have patience.

apbsmith Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I was a big fan of him owning Memphis Depay when Depay tried to go around him 1v1, not today sir, not today. cronaldo7 and sebdeserio 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's @Ozzie_the_parrot to weigh on the actual attendance and what it means for Barca's business model? Camp Nou has the highest legal capacity in Europe. So less than a third is about 32,000. Which is what we'd get for a first round cup match vs a 4th tier side on a rainy November eve. The public is as lost as the team, too many mixed emotions.

GasPed Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) I honestly thought Barca would put on a better show than that.

Unnamed Trialist Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) In Sport today, ratings had Davies as the highest Bayern player, along with Kimmich and Lewandowski: 8/10 No Barça player better than a bare pass except Araujo.

Floortom Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) Rumours are that Phonzie will be starting at left wing tomorrow vs Furth. I believe this would be Davies’ first start at winger for Bayern? Furth are pretty poor and will be overmatched so good chance for Davies to get some goal contributions.
