Club Brugge (H) - CL - Wed 3 Nov 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Harvster]

The club has bought up 3 or 4 of the best RB prospects in the world so I think we'll be OK when the time comes. Pedro Porro, €20m buyback announced yesterday (€40m for other clubs) might well be Spain's starting RB at the Qatar world cup. We've got the Brazilian kid, Couto, we've got Issa Kaboré playing at Troyes. CJ Egan Riley is a decent academy prospect, Sam Robinson captains the u18's. Jeremy Frimpong would probably jump at the chance to come back, he's apparently pulling up trees in Germany.

Or most likely - we'll just buy one. Livramento, Lamptey, Rencsh at Ajax looks good. There's a lot of options.

Lamptey please

Ridiculous that Cancelo continues to start. His agent 100% had a word with the club in the summer. I said it previously but Dinho all but confirmed it in a Brazilian interview over the summer. Can't recall exactly what he said but it was a bit ominous in regards to Cancelo.

Keeping Dinho an extra year and not finding a replacement is starting to look a silly choice. He's clearly not trusted to fill in anymore, and as we saw last year with Rodri, he hit a physical wall 3/4 way through the season as his performances just fell off a cliff.

Wonder if Sterling is starting vs United, or if he's officially in the 'dog house' with Pep.

Sterling vs Wank Bissaka think not.
I believe his confidence started to go from a previous encounter between these 2 in a derby about 18 months ago.
Bissaka had him in his pocket and Raz looked terrified to try and go by him.
We need 11 fully confident players on saturday to go there and smash the f%ckers

Don't see how he can, Laporte will be suspended won't he?

The Boys in Blue never give in. They fight to the end. Come on City. Come on City. Show ‘em lads. Show ‘em all.







Unfortunately this City fan in Blue has had to give in and hasn’t made it. Poorly sick and can’t eat gravy as my Gran used to say! Please shout twice as loudly those at the match. :-)

If Sterling starts in the derby….

Let me guess...He'll bag a hat-trick?

Looks a good team to me. Get the game won by early in the second half then rest a few for the derby.

I’m not putting the game on til KO. I’m sure BT is in a full dipper wankathon because they’re the only team playing.
