Roll of the dice. Don’t know how I feel? But Let’s ‘av it Blue Boys. C’mon City!!

 

[Frankie lad]

I’m showered.Thought the occasion was correct for fresh undies and socks.
In the pub on me tod wife not allowed,
I have ensured I have a clear path to run into for when we score.
Feeling good about us this evening.
Come on you blue beauties.

 

[Pedestrian]

Kosanov on the field says much about the bench imho.

Apart from his first 5mins he’s been excellent. Mr happy is looking for you, something about your attitude.

 

[noseve]

This coverage is desperately poor.

It’s a bit of water you wankers, be professional and get on with it.

Just listened to 5 seconds when 'er Indoors unmuted it. Like a bunch of kids.
They'll probably put it in their Christmas segué to music...

Anyway - that's enough of them, let's see who 5Live have on tonight (I do wish we could go back to a lone commentator)

Not confident but more to do with dodgy decisions by the officials as UEFA will want Madrid to go through

Same here. I know its a different competition but the officials will probably want to make amends for Bellends sending off. Maybe.

Nobody on Sky or tnt giving us any chance. I'm 50/50 - we could play a blinder and outwit them or we could just fold. Be interesting either way.

Coyb show these whinging whining dirty cheating feckers who is the better team.

I despise them.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Lets do this City

 

[ninjamonkey]

Outside of people rinsing him for his money, I can't imagine Rio Ferdinand has a single friend despite craving the attention of absolutely everybody he locks eyes on. Just a horrible personality.

 

[Beanhead]

Strong bench. Lots of options.

 

[jimharri]

Think I'll give it a swerve, and watch the Luton vs Plymouth game. Proper, grass roots football. No fancy dan, "me me me" divas on show.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Avoiding the match day thread.

Come on City!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[I'm Blue]

Well big Erl not a bad sub to bring on if needed.

Doubt if he’ll get anywhere near the pitch.
Pep said he didn’t feel good.
I’ve heard it’s his knee still but I’ve also heard he’s ill.
So no idea but I’m not expecting him to play

 

[deano ou812]

Ffs

Why has he traveled then madness stay in Manchester get treatment to hopefully be ready for Sunday,do our medical team actually know what they are doing ffs ..

 

[TinFoilHat]

Why have we never worn our sky blue kit at the Bernebeu?

There’s no clash. Even with the shorts, we could wear navy like the women, would be a decent away kit.

As much as I like maroon as a City away kit, we should be showcasing our club colours when we play Madrid away.

I agree but UEFA say people with black and tele's can't tell the difference.

Absolutely fuck all to do with flogging kits....

 

[Beanhead]

Outside of people rinsing him for his money, I can't imagine Rio Ferdinand has a single friend despite craving the attention of absolutely everybody he locks eyes on. Just a horrible personality.

Yep, and a mouth like a 70s porn stars c*nt

 

[hihosilva]

Nothing special? but they still managed to outplay us for most of the game in our back yard last week!!

Second half they did but that was down to Pep making the wrong substitution bringing on Lewis for Akanji

 

[skillman]

Just how bad is Bobb’s setback…?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Not confident but more to do with dodgy decisions by the officials as UEFA will want Madrid to go through

With the rise of Fascism in Europe it's expected.

 

[Mr Grumpy]

Apart from his first 5mins he’s been excellent. Mr happy is looking for you, something about your attitude.

Mr missed-the-point is looking for you as well.

I'm thrilled Khusanovovovov is starting.
My point is that those on the bench are looking at this kid starting in his 1st CL match ahead of them.

I'm delighted that there is now serious competition for a place.

 

[Goro]

Erling is not starting? He is injured?

 

[sh249]

Be interesting to see the shape and who plays where. Got a feeling it could be Bernardo wide right to help out Khusanov. But who knows …
