City v Real Madrid - 26/04/16 - Pre Match Thread

[Bluep*ss]

Ronaldo on side of pitch looked up to press boxes and put his thumb down. Looks like he is not playing tonight.

Latest reports suggest Ronaldo might be on the bench for Real Madrid. Team news expected shortly...

Sadly neither. I work for a church so drinking at lunchtime is frowned upon. Should've taken the afternoon off!

Pretend to be ill and go home.

mangala dropped

Ronaldo apparently failed a fitness test, not confirmed yet.

Perhaps his eyebrows need rethreading

1 change from PSG, Kompany for Mangala.

I want to beat them with him playing, we're good enough and I can hear the excuses already. Or if we lose, we're onto a hiding.

It's not like his replacement is going to be Peter Crouch. James, Isco etc whoever steps in is a top player. Will still be tremendously difficult.
