[Music] [Applause] hello and welcome here to talk FCB and welcome back to the Champions League match day six as Hy flicks Barcelona will travel to barusa Dorman in what promises to be a pulsating Clash on Wednesday night and we are going to be talking all about the game to come right here because it is a very very big game for Bara and coming up today I’ve got a big Champions League start with regard to Barca that I think is definitely going to surprise all of you we’ve got all of the team news as Ronald Aro officially returns along with a very very bold prediction that is all on the way let’s get ready for it come on because today’s big champions preview is coming to you courtesy of manscape where it is not too late to wrap up entirely your Christmas shopping we are nearing now guys two weeks away from the big day and may I make a few suggestions here I think get the chairman Pro that is absolutely perfect for your dad I mean obviously I don’t know him it would be a bit weird if I did but hey I know that he deserves something nice I know there that he would appreciate the chairman that is absolutely perfect then maybe for like a a brother cousin or maybe a friend they’re quite tricky they’re quite difficult to buy for the performance package in my view that would be perfect for them there you’ve got a bit of everything all in one and right now guys to celebrate the holiday season you can get 20% off your entire order all you’ve got to do is tap in talkfcb at check out there that will apply your discount you will get a Christmas saving and you will be helping the channel significantly in the process guys but whatever you do whatever you choose to get do not leave it too late but make no mistake whatsoever here guys this is a massive massive game for barca in the Champions League and I think even more so given our current situation given the fact that our form of late has been up and down it’s been really difficult to know what kind of Bara to expect and I think here again we have a lot to prove you know we started the season out to prove a point we started the season there with a real energy and a real determination to show what we can do and I think if anything over the past few weeks that driving force it’s not quite been as strong you know that will to show what we can do it hasn’t been there as frequently so I think right here in this game we’ve got a lot to offer we’ve got a lot to show to prove again on the biggest stage of all and against a top team because barusso Dortmund away it’s a serious test for any team out there we will have to be at our best we will have to show more than we have in recent weeks and it’s starts right here because all you need to do to understand the magnitude of this Clash is to look at the top eight right now in the Champions League standings because as we head into match day six we are nearing now the business end of the group phase and as you can see Barca are in third place barusa Dortmund are right there in fourth we are on the same number of points we are toet totoe and this is big this is a really significant game in terms of the table and also in terms of stature in Europe you want to build up an aura in this competition that is what we’ve been trying to do again this season and it is vital that we continue on that trajectory because if we just have a look here at what brussa Dortmund have done in the Champions League looking at the games they played the wins that they’ve had of course again there’s been some favorable games in there I don’t think we could really deny that their Club brouge Celtic Stern grats Damo Zagreb they’re all very winnable games for Dortmund and they won all of them you know they taken care of the business that they had to do and even that game against Madrid they did show their quality there too remember they were very much in the driving seat in that game they played a fantastic first half really took the game to Real Madrid but in the second they completely fell away Real Madrid ramped up the pressure Dortmund sat back and there was a problem mentally there in dealing with being ahead in that game so that’s something to really bear in mind here ahead of us now facing Dortmund because I think it is also interesting to look at what what they’re doing in the Bundesliga you know on a week-by-week basis right now they are sixth in the table so they’re not actually having the most incredible season ever this is not the best Dortmund team you’ve ever seen they’re already 12 points behind Bayern after just 13 games played this season but can I just say you know you might look at that and think oh well this is going to be easy then they’re sixth in the Bundesliga what have we got to worry about well let me just say they’ve dropped so many points this season away from home which of course does help us in terms of the Bundesliga they are near the bottom of the away form table but just look at what they can do at home they have the best home record of anyone they are unbeaten in this stadium so far this season and it is a fortress there is no other word to describe it here it is an absolute cauldron of noise when you travel to Dortmund and this is where the true test lies this is as much a mental test as a physical one out there on Wednesday and it’s in these kinds of atmospheres these kinds of situations where again Barca have to prove that we can stand T because I think it is interesting guys when you look at barca’s Champions League campaign so far of course you got off to the worst possible start against Monaco and then we really bounce back well but aside from maybe that buern game you could probably also say that we have had some pretty favorable games you know a few ones there at home that you’d expect us to win very very comfortably of course a trip there to Red Star Belgrade which can be tricky but you should be able to navigate that so right here I think it’s a welcome test in the Champions League and if you look at the fixtures here towards the end of the group phase for us we have some more tricky games coming up Dortmund away followed up by Benfica away where we have had trouble in recent years and then our very last game is at home against Atlanta which is also no walk in the park so what we’re going to see here is Barca tested a lot more we’re going to have a much better understanding of how well equipped we are to go deep and have a really good run in this competition and look at the end of the day that is what we all want we want to know the truth about this team we want to know our true value in the Champions League and we are about to find out because I think it’s interesting when you are looking at the comparison here between Barca and Dortmund here coming into match day six in terms of their Champions League rank you can see right here these are the best teams in the Champions League this season for scoring goals Barca are at the top Dortmund are in second there I think their defenses on P are pretty similar in terms of the stats possession is quite similar too but what’s very very different there is the amount of crosses that dortman put in they will certainly try to hurt us in that area where as you can see quite rightly Bara have no interest at all in whipping balls into the box hopefully we can still steer clear of that but in terms of the stat that I was mentioning in the intro there to the video one of the most extraordinary stats I think we’ve seen in recent years in the Champions League from Barca because of all the teams in in this competition Barca are number one when it comes to Long balls completed now that is something that we haven’t often seen from a Barcelona team you know in terms of long balls being at the very very top and I think in some ways actually saying long balls gives off the wrong impression suddenly now we’re thinking oh no we’re stoked City we’re not it’s not the case at all because what we should say is long passes because I just want to stress here there is a very big difference between playing and L long balls out the bat there out of panic when you’re under pressure just smashing the ball up field compared there with calculated ones calculated long sweeping passes that we’ve seen so brilliantly underhand if look you think about the game against Bayern from yamal to Rafia those long balls were absolute poetry and I think that’s going to be key for us in this game here the distribution from the back there long balls forward finding our attacking threat and then switching play you know widening the pitch there really spreading the play and ultim getting in behind brucia Dortmund it’s going to be very very important that we want to be in control we want to be able to pick our passes stay calm in this kind of atmosphere and ultimately we have to threaten Dortmund we cannot allow them to get on top of us in this game to really get the crowd engaged we have to maintain control of ourselves our emotions and those long balls those very key very precise passes I’m thinking about paari making them forward I’m thinking about Jules kundai and of course I’m thinking about about lamin ma we all know what he can do and look out for those kinds of moments however guys as we start take a look here at the team news of the two teams looking first of all at brussa Dortmund NRI sahi ahead of this game actually confirming they still have multiple injury issues there sule recently picked up quite a serious injury he’s going to be out for several months there so they won’t be able to count on him at the heart of their defense they will also most likely be without Kim Adam he’s been out now for quite a while he’s only just building himself back up after that injury and all of that pace will be missing from dortmund’s attack and also Julian brand he will be out and will miss this game after another injury set back there so by Far and Away Dortmund are not at full strength there are players here they like to have available like to have in their team and we certainly have to look to exploit those absences there and play on that as much as possible because when you’re looking at Bara Squad that travels here to brussa Dortmund you will notice what one big name in there one big return Ronald Aro is officially back with the team and that is absolutely fantastic news there he has received now the full medical green light he is back with the squad and he’s able to play if Hy flick was to call upon him now I think most likely he’s not going to be thrown back into a game like this he’s had a long injury layoff here multiple months on the sideline so obviously a game away at Dortmund it’s not ideal to make you come back in maybe at the very end of the game depending on how it’s going Aro could come back and get a few minutes under his belt but I think most likely here he’s going to return properly at the weekend against legist that apparently has always been the plan and I don’t think we’re going to deviate from that here but even just having him with the squad with the team again it’s a boost he want him there he’s one of our leaders don’t forget and having him back in the dressing room with the players as part of the squad that can only help us surely but what that does mean is that in terms of the starting lineup in this game guys are we expecting any surprises at all because of course I think we can count on the backline there paa kundai palui Inigo Martinez and Alejandro Bal we will be hoping that backline has a good night you know we need the offside trap to be in full force and we need it to work you know we can’t have players making mistakes dropping the concentration level we need to be absolutely on it to play that kind of game that kind of High Line in this Stadium and the Midfield is key to that that’s why you have to see Mar assado we need him to cover ground we really really do on this night and pedri alongside him we want to see the kind of game that he produced Against Breast you know he has the quality has the ability to make the difference on these kinds of nights and then it’s all about the front four you’ve got yal you’ve got olmo you’ve got Rafia and you’ve got levandowski now if we play to our strengths if we’re able to create chances if we’re able here to actually pressure Dortmund in any way those those four can make it happen they are able to take the game to any opponent any team at any time and make the difference that is what we need to see on Wednesday in Dortmund this is the moment because in terms of the pre-match predictions here on the channel I think it’s very interesting to see the difference in opinion there’s quite a few people here that think barcel won’t actually win you know 133% there is actually quite on the high side in terms of these predictions but there’s also plenty people who think they will you know the majority here the great majority think it’s going to be a multi-goal win here two plus goals is a possibility now for me guys I think this is what we’ve been waiting for we spoke about it yesterday I truly believe that Hy flick and Barcelona they are even if they won’t admit it they are prioritizing the Champions League they are looking at these games and thinking okay that’s when we need to Peak that’s when we need to perform and that is why on that basis I think this is going to be a big win I think we are going to come to this game that we are actually going to play to our peak level that we are going to give absolutely everything and I think we’re going to destroy dman I’m going to go out and say here that Barca are going to win by four goals to one and I know this is bold and I know it may sound a little bit crazy here on the channel I hope that it doesn’t after but it may do now but I want to see a big result I want to see us again prove on the big stage that we can Dominate and I believe I truly believe believe that we could see something special guys so please let me know in the comments down below what are your predictions what does your head say what does your heart say are those two completely different things and I would also just like to get your thoughts here on a super thanks that I had come in somebody has received a mystery kit and it’s ended up being a real Madrid one please let me know in the comments down below too what on Earth they should do with it that is a great question and I would love to know what your suggestions are I will see each and every one of you after the big game on Wednesday it should be special it should be electric and let’s come out on top guys thank you indeed for the great support and a big shout out here to manscape yet again but until next time as always
