Shakhtar (A) Pre Match Thread

[remember arthur mann]

Zincheno is ineligible, and can not play. Davenport could maybe play left back. Apparently, he almost made the squad against Wolves

Lukas Nmecha has been added to the squad in the past 24 hours (apologies if that’s already been mentioned) so he’s almost certainly going to be on the bench at least

On the bench for the U19's today too. Not that he can't be in both squads of course.

Wrong Nmecha! That's his brother.

Any of the bars near Feedom Square I believe.
Are you guys on the Lott Airlines 10.15am flight from Warsaw, if so see you in the airport bar ?

We got in last night. Just drinking in some bar near freedom square

Will they really go for a win knowing a draw gets them through they may be scared of opening up against us knowing defeat could knock them out.

They're a very decent side. If we rest a load of players I think they will totally back themselves to attack us and beat us comfortably especially at home where they are so strong.

Wait, there’s two? No wonder I always think he’s everywhere when I see him play. Rookie error.

A couple of notable absentees from the u19 game being played ATM - Diaz & Foden (basically 1st team) and Latibeaudiere, Taylor Richards, Duhaney & Davenport. - did they all travel in the first place?

United deffo won't be the hardest game this season, however, they are our nearest rivals atm. Get a positive result against them & watch the rag meltdown.

We can get a result by playing Ederson and 1 extra starter.

I've definitely seen Latibeaudiere and Duhaney in training pictures/videos from out there. Very interesting

Looks like the players were pulled out last minute as well seeing as the U-19s only listed 6 subs, two of them being keepers.

Schoolboy error actually ;-)
