City Vs Porto Pre Match Discussion Thread

Lots of yellow cards in our line up tonight from the previous match, correct? Let's hope the ref isn't card-happy.

Good point. Might have been wiser to remove 1 or 2 of those on a yellow. Theres no way Barry and De Jong will go through the game without a yellow.

I had thought it might be possible Pizzaro starting for Barry in that case.

Nasri's getting a nice string of games.

Not good by the sound of it though

<a class="postlink" href="http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_Stark" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_Stark</a>

Stark was selected as a referee for the 2008 Summer Olympics football tournament and for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. In the 2010-11 season of the German Bundesliga he was elected worst referee of the first half of the season by the players.......deary me !!!

He has been playing well. Deserves it.

Strong team we have out. Expected some rotation but Bobby knows what hes doing.

My hope is he's going for a quick-ish score on the counterattack and then will sub out a midfielder or two at half time.

Yes good point - Richards, Kompany, Barry, Nasri, De Jong & Yaya all on yellows.

Re: Tonights Referee

Sounds like a bit of a fanny of a ref, not a good track record.

Its a pity he didn't play our strongest defence against Napoli and Bayern in the early champions league games, we might still be in it.
