Real Madrid Vs Manchester City CL Pre Match Thread

[Stoned Rose]

I think we will play with one up top,Tevez,Aguero will be on the bench,play five in midfield and four at the back.

..............Hart................
Zab--Vinny--Joleon--Clichy
Nasri..Garcia..Yaya..Barry..Silva
..............Tevez...............

This and only this.

Solid as fuck.

We have got to tackle this game with maturity and intellegence. Even if we lose tonight we still have 5 games to try and win.

Assessing all the various options posted on here it's clear that we have the ammunition to go all the way in this competition. Getting the balance right, the players performing to their best abilities, and RM making the correct calls will be the clincher.
Madrid will be looking at our squad and will be anxious about this tricky opener at home.
I think we'll get a point from this one.

 

[FORZA CITY]

City 5/1 with bet365... surely worth a punt???

You heard it here first ;-)

Maicon against Ronaldo?? I don't think so. We need our best defensive right back playing in Zabaleta.

I have a feeling Kolarov will start, Mancini will use him just in case we get a free kick.

Let's get real for a minute you bunch of nuggets if you think bobby is gunna line zabaleta up against ronaldo your deluded.

Ronaldo is like a robot and zaba moves like a carthourse. Maicon will be playing RB tonight. With his experience he will be vital and the fact he poses such an attacking threat it will be in the mind of ronaldo that he may have to track back which could take him out the game somewhat... If he just doesn't track back then it leaves them exposed and if he is there ready to attack and maicon is upfield them garcia will come accross and fill in.
