Schalke (h) pre-match thread

Seriously ???

UEFA aren’t to be trusted after last week’s Paris hand ball debacle.

I can see Shalke getting a penalty for a foul on the half way line.

If both of stones and otamendi aren't back then it will probably have to be walker in the middle with someone

I'd have thought it'll be Kompany and Laporte.

 

[St.Pauli support]

I'd have thought it'll be Kompany and Laporte.

Hope so. Vinnie didn't train yesterday but he knows his body and is able to just get out and play.

Sky Germany say 3,500 Schalke fans in town, 700 without a ticket yet.
Seems now they are asking City fans for tickets in home sections.
Be prepared ;-)

But don't mind, all they want is a beer and a bit of chanting.

I expect a couple of pens and a red, but think the team will be mentally prepared for another scandalous ref performance. We'll get through no matter what.

Can you imagine 700 English fans turning up without a ticket and going to hang around the ground on the off chance of buying one. Given that they are allocated 3,000 in the away end plus the posh seats we have to give them in the CB stand not sure how so many of them don't have tickets. Personally of it was me I would keep a section in one of the third tiers empty and sell them tickets at £100 each. If they are daft enough to buy them them more fool them

That’s quite frankly pathetic!

An example of a set of fans thinking they’re more important than they are

A bit like scousers and rags then.

Schalke to win 3-1 is 250/1 on Ladbrokes.

I don't trust UEFA to allow us through tonight.

Schalke to qualify 50/1

For all the conspiracy theorists out there now is your time.

Match day let's 'ave it
Just win
