I fail to see what Lahm provides in midfield that others couldn't give us... after over a year of this. I just can't see it.

Cavani sucks donkey dick...there I said it. Awful player. He collects 200k a week for absolutely nothing.
As long as we never sign him it'll be pretty funny.
Good tackle.
The best team, who got hammered in the semifinals.
Yes but from 99 - 08 we got knocked out every season and I thoroughly enjoyed those ones, not really enjoyed the CL since 2009, even the year we lost at Wembley it was a bit meh, maybe I'm expecting too much though.
That Porto coach looks like he gets his suits at the same place as Saul Goodmann
How would an Arsenal fan know what cuts it at this stage?
It happens.
Can't see him being an upgrade on Falcao.
Can't see the hype around him anyway. Every time I've watched him he has been average to awful.
Yeah, he looks bound to become another excellent Spanish midfielder.
Well said.Imagine we spend 40m on Cavani 
Both games end 3-1, one tie is over and the other's set up perfectly for the return leg.
I saw him live against City last season and he was class. Still though you watch him week in week out. With the midfielder you have, I'd rather not see him playing there unless there are injuries.
well. oh. well. thats pretty shitty. 3:2 would have been decent, but losing by two goals really suck.
Well said
And a great game by Porto.
You twats weren't even in it.haha
The injuries are one reason why he has to play there, but the one thing that should be clear as day to anyone is that a midfield with Alonso plus either one of Schweinsteiger or Lahm is absolute crap. Provides NOTHING.
If, for some ungodly reason, Alonso has to play because Pep loves him so dearly, why not play Lahm at RB and Rode (who at least tried to make things happen) in midfield next to the old spaniard? I'm so sick of this crap.
The football you played at times this season was absolutely on another level to anything I have ever seen from your team. Of course it didn't last because of Alaba getting injured and him being so vital to the 3-4-3 you played at that time.
Naturally in the end that it will count for little if you had 4 or 5 months with some of the best football every played at your club when at the end of the season no trophies are won but imo it mainly shows that even the best teams can be crippled by an injury crisis.
bravoMystery to me. Take an overrated fullback and play him as a CM, what the fork?
Absolutely. He is just an amazing talent imo and certainly one I would love to see land on our shopping list.
Well that was fun, we should do this again soon.
For all the talk about how crap we were (and we certainly were), Porto was fantastic. Great intensity, fantastic organisation and determination. Well deserved win.
Only 6 days until the return leg, I doubt we'll get any of our injured players back until then. So we basically have to start the same team again on Tuesday

More like "take the best fullback in the world and turn him into a mostly decent midfielder."
Still think Bayern will go through. Set up nicely though.
Alex Sandro and Danilo out in the next leg? Anyone else?
Reminder folks, it was David Luiz and Dante who were part of the defense that lost 7-1
wtf is thatalba's reaction
What a babyIn fairness there isn't a next level to their treble winning team.
God I hate this thing Neuer does every time when he conceedes a goal, fighting for the ball like biggest prick. Probably one of the most arrogant players around.
He'd cost 30m+
So what? Which class midfielder doesn't cost 30m+ these days?
