I'm watching Spurs vs Leverkusen, and I'm not sure why.
Because it is an interesting fixture based on the style and similar strength of both teams? Would probably catch it aswell if my boys would not be playing.

I think I prefer watching Tuchel's Dortmund to Klopp's. Not as good as Klopp's, but a better style of play. Can't really define it.

Dammit, now I owe a mate of mine a bottle of good whiskey. Had a running bet that Warsaw would stay without goal in this campaign...

You guys are definitely going to top the group due to your superior goal difference. Feck I wish I had placed a bet on you, it was close to double evens and I was pretty confident of it as well.

I just realized that it's Son's homecoming to Leverkusen. Hope he behaves and scores and sets up no goals :nono:

Yes you are sure. It is an evenly matched game. Whereas Real or dortmund will steam roll their opponents.
You underestimate two things here. Sporting´s quality and the number of injuries we currently have.

How's Leicester playing? I haven't been following that as I'm watching the Dortmund game. Porto will be in trouble if they lose this.

I really, really like Felix Passlack. The little guy has a monster mentality and work ethic. It was the thing which impressed me the most when I saw him the first time three years ago.

Aside from Bayern Munich, Dortmund is the only German team whom you can count on to do well in Europe. They are a pride to the Bundesliga in Champions League.

Very good goal keeping by Bürki here. Timing, positioning and reaction all very clean. Sporting is very dangerous on the break.

@Sly what do you think of Bas Dost so far? Dutch commentator just said he is already one of Sportings supporters favorite players.

Buffon saves Lacazettes shitty penalty. I have seen so many missed penalties around Europe this season it's ridiculous. Would be interesting to see stats on that somehow.

Kagawa has a absolute mare out there. The third or fourth attack he screwed up.
