Looks like teams might be delayed coming out in second half, as height of the storm should be in about 15 mins. But it's moving pretty quickly, so I don't expect the game to be called off, especially with the teams in the dressing room.

For those who are DVRing it, might want to extend the coverage....esp in the US, where the next program is set to start right after the scheduled end.

The decision should be made more for the spectators (not that I necessarily think it is, with business factors often taking focus) but I am sure there is pently of space in the concourses.

There is still a Tornado Warning for the area, apparently.

It's a huge stadium. Might be the safest place on the inside at least.

I'm sure we'll be fine from corners with Kompany, Dzeko, Mangala, Yaya and Zabba in the team.

Nice info, especially if you've got the weather right.

Agreed. Wouldn't mind seeing if Fernando can handle Alex on corners though.

Not in the starting 11 today:

Hart
Zabaleta
Sagna
Kompany
Demichelis
Mangala (assuming we sign him)
Fernandinho
Yaya Toure
Garcia
Milner
Nasri
Silva
Aguero
Dzeko
Negredo

.... that is exciting!!!

Plus two young prospects. Good times. :)

If Manuel can weave his magic and keep this squad happy I think we will have an exciting season to look forward to... Can't wait!

I have never really seen the fuss about nasty as a player. Would not bother me if we sold him to free up a place, especially if we got 15 million. He doesn't seem great in the air.

 

[jimharri]

some bags under Francis' eyes!

He was quick to mention that Milan had some players missing (though he did also mention that 9 of their starting XI were full internationals). Er; we also have one or two middling decent players missing as well. I mean to say; no Garcia!

 

[ElanJo]

Lol he tried to do his speciel goal celebration but i think it was clichy just took his hands down. seems like the team doens't really like the kid. :(

Just keeping his feet on the ground

 

[bluwes]

She called him "Steven Yokavich"

She could call me whatever she wants.

That's exactly what I thought

 

[Sky Blue]

Good win this .
Ac Milan look really poor .
Its only a work out though .
So lets not get too excited .

Ok we won't....
