Dortmund (H) - CL QF | Pre-Match Thread

[GOULDYBOBS]

Going to be “Brass Monkey’s” at the stadium tonight, the weather is mot at all spring like.

The wind might play into our hands

We are clearly a better side than Dortmund. We're on form, whereas their form is patchy at best. They have numerous key injuries. Pep would have learnt from his mistakes in the 4 previous seasons. Mr Whippy vs his previous employers. A club that slags us off publicly. Premier League Champions (in waiting) vs farmers league failures. All this can only lead to one thing.....

Man City 0 - 2 Dortmund (Dias own goal + the ghost of whippy's past on the scoresheet).

Will the game go ahead? Absolutely shite out.

Hate the fact the BBC are saying we're odds on to win the Champs League, just so if anything does go wrong they can blame it on Pep and the club, snide f###ers. All this % bollocks is just that, bollocks:

"Simon Gleave, head of sports analysis, Nielsen's Gracenote: "Manchester City are favourites to win the Champions League according to the Euro Club Index, which gives City a 32% chance of lifting the trophy at the end of May.

"City have 83% chance of knocking Borussia Dortmund out in this tie and progressing to the semi-finals.""

Sorry, but you are mad at them BBC for reporting a fact? We are favourites

Quietly starting to brick it over here

Don’t know why mate. I think the league is effectively won so any cups are just a bonus.

We might be favourites amongst the pundits and bookies but that means nought when you have 5 games to go to win the thing.

2-0 keeps us on our toes for the second leg. Gives Dortmund confidence to go forwards and pick them off on the break

5-0 means we get to play the B team in the second leg and might even impress their younger players. Who knows, we might want to sign one of them in the future.

lol

isn't that an oxymoron?
