Numbers are made to be broken. Tomorrow, I don't know who will play between Jashari and Ricci, but the important thing is that the team puts in a solid performance, with a great defensive performance, because they are a team that scores a lot towards the end of matches.
What happened to Dro was a betrayal, if it happened with Jorge Mendes it would not have happened as it has happened with Ivan de la Pena. It has been a shame and a backstabbing.
Barcelona will face a team that stands out for its physical presence. Players such as striker Nick Woltemade, centre-back Dan Burn, or midfielder Joelinton are just some examples of the aerial strength of the English side. Despite that threat, everything suggests that Flick will once again rely on the same defensive line that started the match against Athletic Club.
Erling Haaland's flaky form in his past 10 games - only three goals scored - has put me off captaining him at the moment, and Liverpool do not have a standout option, so I have gone for the upside of Bruno Fernandes back in his favourite number 10 position.
Blair was back playing on Sunday night for Toulouse so it's good to get an outlet when you've not been selected, said the head coach after naming his squad to face Wales. He played really well in that game and he's recovered quickly. Duhan's trained really well and very much been part of our squad, so there'll be a freshness around both of them coming back in and huge determination to play well.
The eyes of Serie A will be on San Siro for the midweek game between AC Milan and Como, but both coaches have selection doubts. Massimiliano Allegri has some questions marks to resolve in each department due to a combination of suspensions and the conditions of some players. However, Cesc Fabregas - who wants revenge after the defeat to Milan a month ago - also has some doubts.
