Real Madrid (A) - Wed 10th Dec, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

This has become a very boring thread unfortunately, because some posters can’t help but try and gaslight Savinho on here. He is not in form, if he is picked by Pep to start, get behind him and I hope he scores a blinder to shut a few people up!

Right...how dare people not want him to start because he's not in form.

Any time an opposing player hasn't scored for a while, a team hasn't performed for a while etc, etc, we seem to oblige. "Alonso to be sacked" if they lose I read this morning....

While I would love to see us give them a proper fucking tonking tonight, typical City lives rent free in my head.

I do enjoy the champions league teams getting announced early, it gives us an extra half hour on here for lads to lose their minds and think they know better than the best manager there has ever been

There’s something in the air tonight

I’m not criticising fans not wanting him to start but those mocking him, and if he starts which will be on Pep, those hoping he plays shit just so they can justify calling him on Bluemoon. He is only 21.

This is a thread which I assume would be about getting behind our team not singling out one player before the game starts. We have a chance to put Madrid to the sword tonight. Something to be excited about not moaning.

Right...how dare people not want him to start because he's NEVER in form.

Amended.

 

[Ajm1985]

Not surprised if Savinho starts. Doku on as an impact sub and hopefully Savinho does well before hand

From the BBC Sports website -

Incredibly, Real Madrid versus Man City is the most-played fixture in Champions League history.
Tomorrow night's game will be their 15th meeting since the sides first met

BBC wrong as usual.

Real Madrid v Bayern München is the most-played Champions League fixture. They’ve faced each other 28 times in the CL (22 times) and pre-CL European Cup (6 times).

Their rivalry is called the Clásico Europeo/Europäischer Klassiker.

Madrid and Bayern have faced each other in CL semifinals alone 14 times, that’s as many times as City have faced Madrid full stop (although we go ahead of that with our 15th meeting tonight).

Don't you know history only started in 2008? Or for league purposes, 1991?
