The cocks at SSN are debating if the game can go ahead. It’s one kiosk!

FFS...... we'll have a government warning going out about keeping safe from wildfires in Manchester. They'll probably give the fucking thing a name...

Looks like one of the mobile shops that sell kits.

Hopefully the one that has the oasis kit in it

Nothing to be concerned with, it's just Foden warming up.

Really looking forward to this tonight.

We have some silly little Brugge Fans on the tram
Had a beer each and think they are hard
They've also now started singing Munich songs
What a bunch of dickheads !

Do they know they are not playing united tonight?

Today will see my first foray in posting to the match thread, after reading (and being bemused by) it as a lurker for years.

Thoughts and prayers are appreciated.

Tbf it affected City as well.

Which makes me think: have these nasty Munich songs ever been sung by low life at City before? In stadiums

Really looking forward to this tonight.

What is selective amnesia like? ;)

big performance needed and we need to switched on in first 20 mins already. I do think we kind of need all of Kova, Bernardo, Gundo in midfield unless KDB and Foden does put serious shift in off the ball with the wingers included dont wanna see walking players out of possession while opponent is bypassing them.

counters will be the main chances for Brugge, not giving the ball away cheaply is crucial.

we need to leave someone on the bench too who can change the game if needed.

Rashfords on fire!!

Not sure there was really much doubt about those 2 starting to be honest.

 

[Claytop]

I’d be shocked if there are any surprises.

Ederson
Nunes
Stones
Akanji
Gvardiol
Kovacic
Bernardo
KDB
Savinho
Foden
Haaland

No way I want a return to the hooligan days, but when I witness away fans acting like absolute cunts and taking liberties I must admit my blood starts to boil and even now I want to give them a slap.

That's what you'd think most likely but I can't help feeling Gundogan might get in the 11 in place of Savinho.

 

[uwerosler28]

Not a new moan but the stadium is absolutely peppered in 50/50 scarves again !!, should be banned!

Nice to see Stones start a game.

Looks like I was right, though I take no pleasure in it.
