Napoli (Away) Pre Match Thread

[IWasHere]

Can't understand the term "let's throw this one and focus on the Arsenal game". These are footballers on millions of pounds, not people working 18 hours a day in Third World Countries. Win win and win, that's the only way forward. Keep the momentum going. A win tonight will boost the morale of our players and make us even more fearless than we already are. We rest up tonight, and get thumped and we will be a team who's laid all their eggs in one basket like we did last season when we played United in the League Cup. We were never the same team after that. A loss can knock you off your stride and make you feel like you're beatable, even if you are almost unbeatable. Wins breed confidence, and that's what we should be aiming for. The Champions League is more important to win that the league this season, and we must treat it seriously. No disrespect to Arsenal but we should win that match quite comfortably. Arsenal are a poor side this season.

Spot on

Just google for sports bar, soccer and Long Beach - Legends & Shannon's look decent

Pretty tame compared to Glasgow last season

Not a patch on Aris or Poznan.

Footballers are to well looked after. Our strongest team should easily be fit enough to play tonight and again on Sunday.

especially with the arse playing thursday

So are you saying we are more likely to lose if Aguero starts?

Not really. Until Jesus loses his first game in a City shirt, I'm hanging onto the belief that we are invincible with him in the side.

city youth just won 5-3....5 goals for us in 1st half, then we chilled out

group winners with 2 games to go ;)

I think this is a game City need to show they are worthy contenders to go all the way. For me this is a real test. If you win, which I think you will, it will embolden you. If you fuck up, then this will signal that you just aren't there yet. You should win and I think to put down a marker, you need to.

I think you are right.

I think you are right.

I'm seldom wrong. :)

It's about belief. These are games the top sides who'll be fighting it out for the cup should win. No matter how good Napoli are, they won't be near the last 8 and if you are going to be then as hard it will be, you need to win. There is no doubt you are the better team. But as we all know to our personal mental health woes, the better teams don't always win, this is a test of bottle. I hope you pass it. Think you will.

Really hope no blues have travelled tonight, according to the early morning BBC news Liverpool and Tottenham are the teams representing the uk tonight The Second half performance by them at our place ,plus the partisan crowd and the realisation that they have some cracking players, would make me a thrilled blue to take a point tonight. One things for certain are much improved defence will be well tested tonight Really hope all goes ok and our magnificent fans arrive home safely
